Filter by:This study is a Open Label Prospective Dose-Ranging Escalation and Expansion Trial to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, Dosing, and Efficacy of RLS-0071 for the secondary treatment of acute Graft-versus-Host Disease (aGvHD) in hospitalized patients who are steroid-refractory.
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the treatment of choice for malignant hemopathies, but highlights the limitations of long-term results due to the high toxicity of the procedure and the development of Graft versus Host Disease (GVHD). Conventional treatments for GVHD have limited success rates, and some patients may be refractory to ruxolitinib, a second-line treatment option. As a result, there is a need to explore alternative immuno-modulatory therapies, such as the use of Wharton's jelly mesenchymal stem cells (WJ-MSCs). The research question aims to investigate the safety and potential benefits of sequentially infusing thawed or expanding allogeneic WJ-MSCs in the treatment of acute GVHD refractory to second-line treatment in patients from the Colombian population. This pilot clinical study is being conducted to address the unmet need for patients who develop GVHD resistant to ruxolitinib.
This is an open, multi-center clinical study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TQ05105 Tablets in patients with chronic graft-versus-host disease
To observe the effect of stem cell infusion on the development of acute graft- versus-host disease (aGVHD) in patients with nonmalignant hematologic diseases after allogeneic peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-PBSCT)

Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (alloHSCT) represents the only curative option for many patients diagnosed with various hematologic neoplasms. Procedure-related morbidity and mortality pose challenges to long-term outcomes and quality of life, especially among patients who develop chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD). There is a gap in healthcare that comprehensively addresses the specific needs of these patients. Physical therapy as an adjuvant treatment, through therapeutic exercise involving muscle strength and cardiorespiratory endurance, has shown positive influences on health markers and serves as a strong medical ally in similar profiles. Although these strategies could be reproducible and potentially beneficial for cGVHD patients, research has been limited to date, with the role of physical therapy possibly underutilized in this field. Justification: Unaddressed medical gap with no rigorously scientific responses specific to cGVHD. Objectives: This project aims to conduct the first randomized clinical trial from a physical therapy perspective as an adjuvant treatment for patients undergoing alloHSCT diagnosed with cGVHD.
This phase II trial tests how well ibrutinib works in preventing chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in patients undergoing donor (allogeneic) hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). An allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is a treatment in which a person receives blood-forming stem cells (cells from which all blood cells develop) from a genetically similar, but not identical donor. When healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into a patient, they may help the patient's bone marrow make more healthy cells and platelets. However, sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can attack the body's normal cells (called GVHD). Giving ibrutinib after the transplant may stop that from happening. Ibrutinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking a protein in the blood called Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK). By blocking BTK, ibrutinib inhibits certain immune cells that play a role in cGVHD. Giving ibrutinib after an allo-HCT may prevent the development of chronic GVHD.
This study will be conducted to determine the clinical efficacy of axatilimab in Japanese participants with chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD).
Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a major complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-CSH). Recently, in the context of semi-identical (=haploidentical) HLA donors, but also of compatible HLA donors, the use of cyclophosphamide (CY) administered in high doses at early post-transplant (PT) (=PTCY) (Days +3 and +4 or +5) has shown excellent control of acute and chronic GVH, even enabling the discontinuation of other immunosuppressive drugs administered after allo-CSH (ciclosporin, mycophenolate mofetyl (MMF) or Cellcept). This step has already been taken in the context of allo-CSH with myeloablative conditioning (MAC), which is a minoritary conditioning in adults. However, in the context of allo-CSH with reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC), which predominates in adults, this strategy seems insufficient to prevent the risk of GVHD. The idea of reducing the use of immunosuppressants in the context of RIC/HLA-compatible transplants seems, however, still relevant, in order to reduce their adverse effects, improve patients' quality of life and enhance the reconstitution of the post-transplant immune system.
Graft versus Host Disease (GVHD) is frequent after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT). GVHD occurs following 2 patterns : acute GVHD (aGVHD) or chronic GVHD (cGVHD). The latter occurs in nearly 50% of patients and its pathogenesis remains poorly understood. Previous translational studies have delineated biological immune dysregulation involved in cGVHD and facilitated the development of new drug and therapeutic strategies. New aspects of T and B cells collaboration in the context of cGVHD using blood description of a key player called TFH, classicaly involved in germinal center reaction, were previously uncovered (Forcade et al, Blood 2016). Previous studies in the context of auto-immune inflammation (lupus nephritis) or organ transplant rejection, suggested that target tissue could contain accessory lymphoid structures (TLS). The description of such structures in cGVHD target tissue would give the opportunity to directly analyze immune key player involved the pathogenesis of cGVHD.
