Autoimmune cytopenias resistant to treatment are among the most common clinical manifestations observed in patients with congenital alterations of the immune system, such as primary immunodeficiencies (PI). The exact contribution of immune system alterations to the pathogenesis of autoimmune cytopenias has not yet been fully elucidated. Moreover, conventionally employed therapeutic strategies often fail, leading to increased healthcare costs, high morbidity, and even mortality. Therefore, there is a need to establish clinical guidelines for diagnosis and to identify early biomarkers capable of identifying individuals responsive to therapy. Thus, a systematic approach to the study of such pathologies will allow for the identification of early biomarkers and facilitate the development of targeted therapeutic strategies
This phase II trial evaluates how a curcumin supplement (C3 complex/Bioperine) changes the inflammatory response and symptomatology in patients with clonal cytopenia of undetermined significance (CCUS), low risk myelodysplastic syndrome (LR-MDS), and myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). Chronic inflammation drives disease development and contributes to symptoms experienced by patients with CCUS, LR-MDS, and MPN. Curcumin has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties and has been studied in various chronic illnesses and hematologic diseases.
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.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether isatuximab is an effective treatment for people who developed immune cytopenias/ICs after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant/allo-HCT.
This phase II trial tests how well canakinumab works to prevent progression to cancer in patients with clonal cytopenias of unknown significance (CCUS). CCUS is a blood condition defined by a decrease in blood cells. Blood cells are composed of either red blood cells, white blood cells, or platelets. In patients with CCUS, blood counts have been low for a long period of time. Patients with CCUS also have a mutation in one of the genes that are responsible for helping blood cells develop. The combination of genetic mutations and low blood cell counts puts patients with CCUS at a higher risk to develop blood cancers in the future. This transformation from low blood cell counts to cancer may be caused by inflammation in the body. Canakinumab is a monoclonal antibody that may block inflammation in the body by targeting a specific antibody called the anti-human interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta).
Background: People who have a blood stem cell transplant can sometimes develop cytopenia. This means that their levels of one or more types of blood cell, such as the red cells or platelets, are lower than they should be. This can occur because a person s immune system might attack these cells after a stem cell transplant. Up to 20% of people who have blood stem cell transplants develop cytopenias, which can lead to anemia, severe bleeding, infections, and other problems. Treatments are needed to help keep blood cell levels stable after blood stem cell transplant. Objective: To evaluate the long-term effects of a study drug (fostamatinib) in people with cytopenia after a blood stem cell transplant. Eligibility: People who responded well to fostamatinib in an earlier study. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam and blood tests. Fostamatinib is an oral tablet taken by mouth. Participants will take the pills at the same dose and frequency as they did during the previous study. They will take the pills for up to 21 months. The dosage of the drug may be reduced over time if their blood cell levels are stable. Participants will have a medical assessment every month. This can be with their local doctor or at the NIH clinic. Participants will have blood tests every 3 months. Participants will have a follow-up visit after they stop taking the drug. Their vital signs will be taken, and they will have blood drawn. They will answer questions about their health.
Patients with medical conditions requiring allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) are at risk of developing a condition called graft versus host disease (GvHD) which carries a high morbidity and mortality. This is a phase I/II study that will test the safety and efficacy of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) with ex-vivo T cell receptor Alpha/Beta+ and CD19 depletion to treat patients' underlying condition. This process is expected to substantially decrease the risk of GvHD thus allowing for the elimination of immunosuppressive therapy post-transplant. The study will use blood stem/progenitor cells collected from the peripheral blood of parent or other half-matched (haploidentical) family member donor. The procedure will be performed using CliniMACS® TCRα/β-Biotin System which is considered investigational.
This cross-sectional prevalence assessment study involves a single blood draw in specific patient populations to assess for enzymatic and genomic evidence for acquired pyruvate kinase deficiency.
This is a phase II pilot study designed to assess the safety and efficacy of danazol for treatment of cytopenias in patients with CPC A/B cirrhosis. Subjects with or without telomere mutations and/or shortened telomeres will be treated with danazol 600 mg per day by mouth for a duration of 24 months. The goal will be to treat a total of 10 patients.
