Filter by:This is a Phase 1 open-label, dose escalation trial designed to identify the recommended phase 2 dose of STI-6129 by assessing the safety, preliminary efficacy, and immunogenicity in subjects with relapsed or refractory systemic AL Amyloidosis
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and efficacy of Selinexor and Dexamethasone and see what effects it has on AL amyloidosis.
Patients with systemic light chain (AL) amyloidosis, particularly those who are ineligible for transplant or have relapsed/refractory disease, have limited treatment options. The combination of bendamustine and dexamethasone is well-tolerated and efficacious in patients with relapsed/refractory AL amyloidosis. Anti-CD38 antibodies have recently demonstrated great efficacy in AL amyloidosis. Adding isatuximab, a monoclonal antibody targeting CD38, to bendamustine would combine two mechanisms of targeting the clonal plasma cell without significant overlap in toxicity. This would provide a steroid minimizing and neurotoxic-free regimen for patients with AL amyloidosis. This study is a phase II clinical trial of isatuximab and bendamustine in newly diagnosed or relapsed/refractory AL amyloidosis. It is hypothesized that this combination will result in a high number of deep hematologic responses.
Phase 3 efficacy and safety of acoramidis in subjects with symptomatic Transthyretin Amyloid Polyneuropathy (ATTR-PN)
Familial amyloidosis is a rare disease that mainly affects the nerves and heart, but also more rarely the eyes and kidneys. This disease is due to a mutation in the gene encoding the synthesis of transthyretin, resulting in a modification of the translated protein. This abnormal protein and its derivatives are deposited in the form of a toxic "amyloid" substance in tissues and organs, altering their functions, particularly in the gastrointestinal tract. From a gastrointestinal perspective, different treatments can be proposed in the absence of specific recommendations for familial amyloidosis. The hygienic and dietary measures consist of avoiding tobacco, alcohol and carbonated drinks, limiting fatty meals rich in poorly digestible fibers, and splitting meals. If this fails, metoclopramide and domperidone are suggested. As a second-line erythromycin, can be used with caution because of cardiac risks and drug interactions. Polyethylene glycol-based osmotic laxatives can be used to treat constipation. Alternating diarrhea and constipation can be treated with ispaghul-based laxatives, aiming at transit regulation. Finally, refractory diarrhea can be treated with the administration of loperamide. If this fails, treatment with a somatostatin analogue may be offered. However, all these treatments can present significant side effects, therefore natural alternatives are often sought. Psyllium in particular regulates transit by normalizing stool consistency: it is effective against digestive disorders such as constipation, but it is also effective in the event of diarrhea. It allows the formation of a viscous gel by the hydrophilicity of polysaccharides macromolecules, increasing the fecal bowl which stimulates peristalsis and facilitates defecation. The WHO has recognized that Psyllium is superior to wheat bran in the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome. The main objective of the study is to assess the effect of daily Psyllium administration on digestive quality of life in familial amyloidosis patients who suffer from digestive disorders.
See updated study design under NCT04882735. Phase 3 efficacy and safety of AG10 compared with placebo in subjects with symptomatic Transthyretin Amyloid Polyneuropathy (ATTR-PN)
Our ultimate goal is to design a multi-center randomized trial to test the hypothesis that targeted testing for transthyretin cardiac amyloid (ATTR) will improve survival and health status among aortic stenosis patients who undergo transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). The hypothesis of this pilot study is to evaluate if invasive cardiac hemodynamics obtained after TAVR, by using the AortoVentricular index (AVi), can be used as a novel test to help identify participants with ATTR. Aim 1. To determine if an abnormal AVi value can identify ATTR among aortic stenosis patients undergoing TAVR. Aim 2. To determine if s' from echocardiography plus AVi can enhance the prediction of ATTR among aortic stenosis patients undergoing TAVR. Aim 3. To design a pilot trial to improve patient outcomes after TAVR by targeted testing for ATTR.
Those with abnormal vital signs after TAVR need to be willing to obtain a bone scan to evaluate for wildtype amyloidosis. Positive bone scan findings will require evaluation for primary amyloidosis with blood and urine monoclonal immunoglobulin testing. Primary amyloidosis is a different type of disease which requires different treatment.
GSK3039294 has been developed to offer an orally available alternative to parenteral GSK2315698 (miridesap) for plasma serum amyloid P component (SAP) depletion prior to and following use of anti-SAP Monoclonal Antibody (mAb) in the treatment of systemic amyloidosis. The primary objectives of the study are to assess the cardiac arrhythmic potential of GSK3039294 and evaluate safety and tolerability of repeat doses of GSK3039294, in healthy subjects relative to placebo for the same duration. This study will consist of two parts, Part A and a conditional Part B. Part A is designed as a randomized double-blinded, 3 period, placebo-controlled, repeat-dose, crossover study. The decision to initiate Part B will be based on an evaluation of data from Part A, which will include an overall assessment of safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD). In Part A, there will be three treatment periods with 7 days of dosing in each and minimum 7-day washout period between each treatment session. Each subject will receive two dose levels of GSK3039294 and placebo. In Part B, there will be two treatment periods with 7 days of dosing in each and minimum 7-day washout period. Each subject will receive one dose level of GSK3039294 and placebo. In Part A, approximately 48 subjects will be recruited for an estimated total of 36 completers. In Part B, approximately 32 subjects will be recruited for an estimated total of 24 completers. The study will last up to approximately 10 weeks from screening to follow-up.
This phase II trial studies how well ibrutinib with or without bortezomib and dexamethasone works in treating patients with immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis that has come back after a period of improvement or that does not respond to treatment. Ibrutinib and bortezomib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving ibrutinib with or without bortezomib and dexamethasone may work better in treating patients with relapsed or refractory immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis.
