Filter by:To evaluate the safety and feasibility of collecting hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) in participants with RUNX1-FPD.
This is an open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of HMPL-523 in adult subjects with ITP.
Background: Runt-related transcription factor 1 (RUNX1) gene regulates the formation of blood cells. People with mutations of this gene may bleed or bruise easily; they are also at higher risk of getting cancers of the blood, bone marrow, and lymph nodes. Objective: To test a drug (imatinib) in people with RUNX1 mutations that cause symptoms. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 and older with RUNX1 mutations. Healthy people without this mutation, including family members of affected participants, are also needed. Design: Participants with the RUNX1 mutation will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood and urine tests. They will have a test of their heart function. They may need a new bone marrow biopsy: A sample of soft tissue will be removed from inside a bone. Imatinib is a tablet taken by mouth once a day, every day, at home. Affected participants in different parts of the study will take imatinib for either 28 days or up to 84 days. Participants will visit the clinic once a week for the first 28 days that they are taking the imatinib. Then they will come once every 2 weeks if they are taking the drug for 84 days. Blood, urine, and tests of heart function will be repeated. They may opt to have the bone marrow biopsy repeated after they finish their course of imatinib. Participants will have a follow-up visit 30 days after they stop taking imatinib. Participants who do not have the RUNX1 mutation will have 1 clinic visit. They will have blood tests. They will fill out questionnaires. They may opt to have a bone marrow biopsy....
This study aims to improve platelet function testing during bleeding investigations. To this end, the study will evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of novel platelet function tests in patients with confirmed or suspected platelet function disorders. Study participants will be recruited from patients that are referred to or treated at the Coagulation Unit, Karolinska University Hospital, and Pediatric Coagulation Unit, Astrid Lingren Children's Hospital.
This project seeks to perform whole genome sequence (WGS) and whole transcriptome sequence (WTS) analysis on 350 patients with suspected inherited bone marrow failure syndromes and related disorder (IBMFS-RD) in order to increase the genomic diagnostic rate in IBMFS.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of avatrombopag for the promotion of platelet engraftment after Allo-HSCT.
Detection and determination of platelets in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and blood in ARDS and non-ARDS-patients. Correlation with phenotype and inflammation parameters in blood and outcome parameters.
Platelets are essential blood elements to maintain hemostasis. Quantitative or qualitative defects can be responsible of hemorrhagic (platelet disorders) or thrombotic (heparin induced thrombocytopenia [HIT]) troubles. Diagnosis of these pathologies is sometimes urgent and consists in delicate platelet functional assays that are mostly made in expert centers. These platelets functional assays measure platelets activation and/or aggregation in response to diverse inductors and may lack sensitivity. The investigators would like to propose a new diagnostic tool with the use of imaging flow cytometry which provides much more information than classic cytometer on cell morphology thanks to images collected by the optical channel of the ImageStream cytometer. The use of this cytometer offers an innovative approach. This study is a monocentric prospective and non-interventional study. The investigators will analyze patient samples with the ImageStream cytometer and reference laboratory tests (light transmission aggregometry and serotonin release assay) in parallel and compare results from the different techniques. This new diagnostic technique will demonstrate a non-inferiority diagnosis compared to reference tests and maybe a better sensibility.
In parallel with the growth of American Thrombosis and Hemostasis Network's (ATHN) clinical studies, the number of new therapies for all congenital and acquired hematologic conditions, not just those for bleeding and clotting disorders, is increasing significantly. Some of the recently FDA-approved therapies for congenital and acquired hematologic conditions have yet to demonstrate long-term safety and effectiveness beyond the pivotal trials that led to their approval. In addition, results from well-controlled, pivotal studies often cannot be replicated once a therapy has been approved for general use.(1,2,3,4) In 2019 alone, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued approvals for twenty-four new therapies for congenital and acquired hematologic conditions.(5) In addition, almost 10,000 new studies for hematologic diseases are currently registered on www.clinicaltrials.gov.(6) With this increase in potential new therapies on the horizon, it is imperative that clinicians and clinical researchers in the field of non-neoplastic hematology have a uniform, secure, unbiased, and enduring method to collect long-term safety and efficacy data. ATHN Transcends is a cohort study to determine the safety, effectiveness, and practice of therapies used in the treatment of participants with congenital or acquired non-neoplastic blood disorders and connective tissue disorders with bleeding tendency. The study consists of 7 cohorts with additional study "arms" and "modules" branching off from the cohorts. The overarching objective of this longitudinal, observational study is to characterize the safety, effectiveness and practice of treatments for all people with congenital and acquired hematologic disorders in the US. As emphasized in a recently published review, accurate, uniform and quality national data collection is critical in clinical research, particularly for longitudinal cohort studies covering a lifetime of biologic risk.(7)
Kidney biopsy represents the criterion standard to obtain information on diagnosis and prognosis of renal dysfunctions . Many patients with kidney disease have a predisposition to bleed, especially when they undergo an invasive procedure such as renal biopsy. The predominant factor is abnormal platelet function. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate whether the platelet function analyzer (PFA-100), a very reliable test to investigate primary hemostasis, can be useful in predicting the risk of bleeding complications in patients undergoing renal biopsy.
