Filter by:This is a Phase 1, single-arm, open-label, dose-escalation and dose-expansion study. The main purpose is to evaluate the safety and tolerability, efficacy of CNCT19 CAR T-cell therapy in patients with autoimmune hemolytic anemia after failure of three or more lines of therapy. Participants will receive CNCT19 cell infusion after preconditioning, and they will receive a 1-year follow-up.
To Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of ThisCART19A for Relapsed/Refractory Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia Patients After Receiving Three or More Lines of Therapy
Cold agglutinin disease (CAD) is defined as a chronic autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) with a monospecific direct antiglobulin test (DAT) strongly positive for C3d and the presence of cold agglutinins (CA; titer ≥ 64 at 4°C). Patients may have a B-cell clonal lymphoproliferative disorder (LPD) detectable in blood or marrow but no clinical or radiological evidence of malignancy. CAD can lead to AIHA, peripheral ischemic symptoms (cold-induced peripheral symptoms such as acrocyanosis etc.), or both. The CAs are typically monoclonal IgM antibodies produced by the clonal B-cells, usually IgM kappa with specificity for the I antigen on erythrocytes. There is no curative treatment. Current treatment options include rituximab monotherapy, however this has only a limited and short-lasting effect. Rituximab in combination with chemotherapy induces deeper and more durable responses, however since CAD patients typically do not have an overt malignancy this comes with concerns about short- and long-term toxicity. Novel complement inhibitors may be effective for the hemolysis but are not expected to be effective against cold induced peripheral symptoms while this is directly IgM mediated. Bruton Tyrosine Kinase inhibitors (BTKis) are effective in many B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders including the IgM producing clone of Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM) and were very effective on both AIHA and peripheral ischemic symptoms in patients with CAD based on retrospective data.
The sample size of this study is calculated based on Simon's two-stage design. The first stage of the study enrolled a cohort of 12 patients. If after 12 weeks at least 6 patients achieved a response, then enrollment was expanded to a total of 26 patients. The null hypothesis was unaccepted if more than 14 of 26 patients achieved the response. Accounting for a 20% dropout rate, the estimated final sample size was 33 patients.
A single-center, open-label, off-label use investigator-initiated clinical study with safety run-in to explore the clinical activity and safety of Anti-CD38 Antibody in adult ES patients who have not responded adequately or relapsed after first-line treatment and at least one second-line therapy including immunosuppressive agents, Anti-CD20 Antibody and/or TPO-RA, or those in whom no other second-line treatment options are suitable.
From 2004, OBS'CEREVANCE is a national real-world prospective clinical cohort of patients with auto-immune cytopenia of pediatric-onset : Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), Autoimmune Hemolytic anemia (AIHA), or Evans syndrome (all bi or tri cytopenias). Thanks to the collaboration of the 30 French pediatric hematologic centers, this cohort supports all of the Rare Disease Centre CEREVANCE (Centre de Référence National des Cytopénies Auto-Immunes de l'Enfant) missions for care, education and research. Specifically, this original unbiased database allows to describe the long-term health of adult patients, to identify the heterogenous genetic underlying pathophysiologic contexts, and to study the benefit-risk balance of treatments, including the growing development of targeted therapies.
The goal of this observational study is to characterize the diagnostic and therapeutic management of autoimmune cytopenias including autoimmune hemolytic anemia, immune thrombocytopenia, and chronic idiopathic/autoimmune neutropenia. The main aims to answer are: - evaluation of traditional and novel diagnostic tools including immunohematology, cytokine essays, bone marrow studies, molecular findings, and fecal microbiome. - evaluation of type and sequence of the therapies administered, the response rates, and the adverse events. - evaluation of clinical and laboratory (immunologic, molecular, and morphologic) predictors of outcome. - evolution of autoimmune cytopenias into myelodysplastic syndromes. - a subgroup of patients with myelodysplastic syndromes will be included to evaluate the presence of immunologic events, autoimmune activation, and red cell metabolism. Participants will receive a clinical/laboratory diagnostic workup as per current clinical practice. Furthermore They will be sampled at baseline (peripheral blood and feces for microbiome) and followed up for at least 3 years to evaluate their clinical course, therapeutic management and outcome.
Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is a rare and heterogeneous disorder characterized by the destruction of red blood cells through warm or cold antibodies. Glucocorticoid (combined with rituximab) is the first-line treatment. However, the recurrence rate is very high and some patients may not respond to steroids. Second-line therapies include cyclosporine A (CsA), cyclophosphamide, rituximab, azathioprine, and even splenectomy. Our previous study of sirolimus in refractory/relapsed AIHA and ES found an effective rate of 80%. Therefore, the investigators plan to explore the efficacy and safety of sirolimus in the treatment of refractory/relapsed wAIHA.

Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) plays a crucial role in the signaling pathway of B-cell receptor (BCR), and has been found to be a major source of pathogenic signal transduction for various lymphoproliferative malignancies. The activity of BTK is related to the occurrence and progression of various B-cell lymphomas. Currently, BTK inhibitors are widely used in the treatment of B-cell lymphomas, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia (WM), and other B-cell lymphomas, showing significant efficacy. BTK affects the production of messenger molecules and regulates the BCR signaling pathway, causing B cells to transform into self-reactive B cells, which can trigger autoimmune diseases. Current research has shown that BTK activity increases in several autoimmune diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) . Therefore, BTK inhibitors (BTKi) are important for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. Ibrutinib, one kind of BTKi, has been proven to treat secondary autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) in CLL and control CLL progression, and is an effective drug for treating lymphoma-associated AIHA . One kind of second-generation selective BTKi, acalabrutinib, can also reduce the incidence of AIHA in relapsed or refractory CLL patients. Currently, phase-II clinical studies exploring the treatment of AIHA using Ibrutinib, acalabrutinib, and rilzabrutinib, another BTKi, are underway. Zanubrutinib (BGB-3111, Brukinsa®, BeiGene) is a second-generation irreversible BTKi developed by Chinese company BeiGene. Compared to Ibrutinib, zanubrutinib has shown stronger effective activity and higher selectivity towards BTK, and weaker effects on other targets such as TEC, EGFR, and Src families, with low off-target side effects. Its efficacy, durability, oral absorption, and targeting are better than those of Ibrutinib. Zanubrutinib is approved for the treatment of various B-cell lymphomas, and clinical trials have shown excellent efficacy and tolerability in CLL and WM patients. In previously treated CLL patients, zanubrutinib exhibits better efficacy and safety than Ibrutinib. Currently, phase II clinical studies of zanubrutinib in ITP, antiphospholipid syndrome, IgG4-related immune diseases, and active proliferative lupus nephritis are underway. The therapeutic effect of zanubrutinib on refractory warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia, is worth exploring through exploratory research.
This is a multinational, multi-center, observational, prospective, longitudinal disease registry designed to collect data on participants with cold agglutinin disease (CAD) or cold agglutinin syndrome (CAS). Among them, a minimum of 30 patients with CAD treated with sutimlimab are expected to take part in the sutimlimab cohort study. Patients with CAD who have been enrolled in previous sutimlimab clinical trials (e.g., BIVV009-01/LTS16214 [NCT02502903,CAD patients], BIVV009-03/EFC16215 [NCT03347396], and BIVV009-04/EFC16216 [NCT03347422]) and who either completed or discontinued the corresponding clinical trial are eligible to participate in the registry.
