Filter by:Objectives Primary objective: • To determine the efficacy and safety of the combination therapy of Hydroxyurea and thalidomide in beta-thalassemia patients. Secondary objective: • To determine the change in liver and spleen size of beta-thalassemia patients on the combination therapy. A single-arm non-randomized trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combination therapy of hydroxyurea and thalidomide in beta-thalassemia patients. Participants were monitored for six months on Hydroxyurea alone and then the combination therapy of hydroxyurea and thalidomide was started. Findings of physical examination, vital signs, laboratory, and ultrasound findings were recorded at baseline, during, and end of the study. The assessment of treatment outcomes was conducted at the 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year follow-up points during the combination therapy period, categorizing patients as either "good responders," "responders," or "non-responders."
The goal of this Non-Randomized Clinical Trial is to determine the effects of thalidomide on red blood cells in transfusion dependent beta thalassemia patients. The main aims of this study are: - To determine the therapeutic effect of Thalidomide on hemoglobin. - To analyze association of different β- globin mutations with response to thalidomide in β-thalassemia patients. - To analyze association of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPS) of HBG2, BCL11A and HBS1L-MYB with response to thalidomide in β-thalassemia patients. - To correlate GATA1 and KLF1 gene expression with response to thalidomide in β-thalassemia patients. Patients will be grouped into thalidomide and non-thalidomide groups on the basis of their willingness to receive thalidomide therapy. Thalidomide will be given at an average dose of 1.5mg/kg/day (range 1-2mg/kg/day). Patients will be followed up for 12 months and data will be collected at different visits. After 12 months of thalidomide therapy patients will be divided into responders and non-responders for comparative analyses on the basis of increase in hemoglobin level.
Patients with hemochromatosis or Thalassemia develop progressive tissue and organs damages secondary to iron overload. Iron overload can result both from transfusional hemosiderosis and excess gastrointestinal iron absorption. Iron deposition in the heart, liver, and multiple endocrine glands results in severe damage to these organs, with variable degrees of endocrine and organ failure. Although patients with iron overload often present endocrine disorders, the pathogenetic mechanisms underlying endocrinopathies are not completely clear. In particular it is not elucidated if the spectrum of endocrinopathies could change with advancing age. All endocrinological comorbidities can develop from a primary damage of the target gland, from pituitary secondary failure or from both. The aim of this study is to investigate the prevalence of endocrinological diseases in adult patients with iron overload due to β-thalassemia or hemochromatosis and their impact on well-being and quality of life. The study design is a prospective cross-sectional clinical study. All subjects enrolled will be evaluated for the endocrine diseases. The study protocol will include data collection from family and patients' history of diseases, physical examination, hormonal assessment for all endocrine axes and instrumental examinations. The results will provide evidence on the prevalence of endocrine diseases in patients with iron overload and will add information to characterize the type and the degree of endocrine deficiencies, and on the pathogenic mechanisms involved, in order to individualize diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.
The purpose of this observational study is to assess the real-world safety of luspatercept in Korean participants with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or beta thalassemia. Investigators will enroll participants who will begin treatment with at least 1 dose of luspatercept.
Bone denisty changes in children with beta thalassemia major
The goal of this open label, single-arm clinical study is to learn about the safety and efficacy of base-edited autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(CS-101) in treating patients with β-thalassemia major.
This is a single-arm, open, single-injection exploratory clinical study with two transfusion-dependent β thalassemia (β-TDT) participants planned to enroll.
Objective: To longitudinally track the dynamic changes in the survival quality of pediatric patients after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation at different time points within 1 year post-transplantation, analyze the influencing factors of survival quality at each time point, identify independent risk factors that can be intervened, provide reference for medical staff to recognize survival quality problems early, guide the dynamic management of clinical survival quality, and formulate continuation care management plans. Methods: This study adopted a repeated measurement study design. A total of 250 pediatric patients who underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in three tertiary hospitals in Guangdong Province from August 2023 to December 2025 and met the research standards were selected as the research subjects. The "Childhood Health Assessment Questionnaire Transplant Module 3.0 Chinese Version" was used to evaluate the survival quality of the patients at six time points: 1 week before pre-treatment (T0), the day of stem cell infusion (T1), 1 month (T2), 3 months (T3), 6 months (T4), and 1 year (T5) after transplantation. Statistical methods for repeated measures were used to analyze the relevant information, and mixed-effect linear models were used to analyze the influencing factors of survival quality at the six time points, and to identify independent risk factors.
The goal of this open label, single-arm clinical study is to learn about the safety and efficacy of CS-101 in treating β-thalassemia.
The investigate will conduct a cohort study to compare the growth and development, metabolism, lifestyle behavior, and health-related quality of life among three groups: children with transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia (TDT) who have received gene therapy, TDT children with lifelong supportive therapy and healthy children.
