Filter by:To determine whether protective antibody levels increase after booster dosing with the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine in patients diagnosed with Hematologic Malignancies who have low antibody levels after a prior first vaccination with any of the SARS-CoV2 vaccines that were authorized for use in the USA. Researchers will also assess whether the booster dosing with the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine is safe in patients with multiple myeloma, amyloidosis, or other blood cancers.
This is a retrospective, observational, multicenter study to collect Real-World Evidence (RWE) data on systemic AL-AMY patients in Europe. Data from paper/electronic medical records and/or electronic databases from key reference centers in Europe will be used. Data will either be entered by the site staff in the electronic Case Report Form (eCRF) or, where feasible, transferred directly, always in accordance to local regulations.
AL amyloidosis begins in the bone marrow where abnormal proteins misfold and create free light chains that cannot be broken down. These free light chains bind together to form amyloid fibrils that build up in the extracellular space of organs, affecting the kidneys, heart, liver, spleen, nervous system and digestive tract. The primary purpose of this study is to determine the recommended dose of CAEL-101 to facilitate progression of further clinical trials and evaluate safety and tolerability of CAEL-101 in combination with the standard of care (SoC) cyclophosphamide-bortezomib-dexamethasone (CyBorD) chemotherapy and daratumumab .
Light chain (AL) amyloidosis is a bone marrow disorder that affects a wide range of organs that can lead to organ dysfunction and death. Amyloid is an abnormal protein that is produced in your bone marrow and cannot be broken down. It builds up in different organs preventing them from working well. The most commonly affected organs are the kidneys, heart, liver, spleen, nervous system, and digestive tract. Treatment with chemotherapy can stop the growth of abnormal cells that produce this abnormal protein. Decrease in amyloid protein in the body improves the function of the affected organs. The primary purpose of this study is to determine the safest dose of the medications and how well you tolerate them or the "maximum tolerated dose" (MTD). The study uses Ixazomib in combination with cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone to treat people with newly diagnosed AL amyloidosis. This combination of medications is an oral regimen that is taken over 6 cycles. The first part of study will determine the safety of this regimen and the second part of the study will determine how effective this combination of drugs is to treat your disease.
Participants with AL Amyloidosis will receive the drug daratumumab by IV infusion once weekly for two months, then every 2 weeks for four months, then once each month. Study treatment may continue until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or decision to withdraw from the trial. Disease evaluations will be performed every three months until disease progression.
This is a global, multicenter, Phase 2b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-arm, parallel-group efficacy and safety study of NEOD001 as a single agent administered intravenously in adults with AL amyloidosis who had a hematologic response to previous treatment for their amyloidosis (e.g., chemotherapy, autologous stem cell transplant [ASCT]) and have persistent cardiac dysfunction.
This is an online registry to document the psychometric properties of SF-36v2 among patients with AL Amyloidosis, to document patients' burden of disease, to better understand the patient's experience and to follow quality of life issues using a variety of QOL measures.
Light-chain (AL-) amyloidosis is a very rare monoclonal plasma cell disorder with poor prognosis. Rarity of disease has precluded performance of randomized controlled trials comparing various possible treatment modalities. In general, treatment of AL amyloidosis has been adapted from myeloma (MM) therapy. There is large experience with allo SCT in MM. Based on small series of patients and case reports allogeneic transplant has emerged as potentially effective. However, more formal proof of concept of using allogeneic hematopoietic transplantation for treatment of AL Amyloidosis is lacking. Therefore, given the limitations of conventionally collected registry data (dubious follow-up information and extreme heterogeneity), we developed the: "EBMT non-interventional prospective study on allogeneic transplantation in AL Amyloidosis" which means that transplant centers that already do perform allogeneic transplants for AL Amyloidosis will be encouraged to register their patients with AL Amyloidosis very timely with the EBMT, followed by mandatory submission of EBMT MedB and follow-up forms. The diagnosis of AL Amyloidosis would be based on uniform criteria. All EBMT centres performing allogeneic transplants for Amyloidosis will be invited to participate in this study and centres will be asked to report all AL Amyloidosis cases referred for transplantation using a simple registration form and then to submit Amyloidosis MED B forms for each transplanted patient and follow-up forms as necessary. In conclusion, it should be possible to largely improve the usual quality of registry-based data and to generate scientifically sound knowledge on HSCT in an orphan disease such as AL Amyloidosis.
The purpose of the study is to determine the capability of a radiolabeled amyloid-reactive monoclonal antibody (mAb) to document the presence and distribution of amyloid deposits by PET/CT imaging in patients with AL amyloidosis.
This study seeks to enroll patients with AL amyloidosis, for whom treatment with one of the standard melphalan chemotherapy-based regimens is either not recommended or is not their preference. Pomalidomide (CC-4047) is a drug given by mouth, which can change or regulate the functioning of the immune system. So, in theory, it may reduce or prevent the production of the amyloid protein. Pomalidomide is not currently FDA-approved for AL Amyloidosis. Pomalidomide is chemically similar to thalidomide and lenalidomide, both of these drugs have been approved by the FDA for treatment of patients with multiple myeloma (MM), a disease similar to AL Amyloidosis. Participants in this study will receive pomalidomide and dexamethasone. Phase I is a dose-escalation study and dose escalation will proceed through 3 dose-levels according to standard rules in which dose levels are started sequentially after complete evaluation of the occurrence of dose-limiting toxicities. In the Phase II portion, participants will receive pomalidomide and dexamethasone using the defined maximum tolerated dose.
