Filter by:PURPOSE: To investigate the effect of the disease and HSCT on muscle dysfunction and to investigate the prognostic role of muscle dysfunction at critical decision points in patients with hematological diseases referred to hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). HSCT: Patients diagnosed with malignant hematological diseases who are referred to myeloablative HSCT, to a myeloablative "reduced toxicity conditioning" regime with Fludarabine and Treosulfane (FluTreo) or to non-myeloablative HSCT.
Children, adolescents, and young adults with malignant and non-malignant conditionsundergoing an allogeneic stem cell transplantation (AlloSCT) will have the stem cells selected utilizing α/β CD3+/CD19+ cell depletion. All other treatment is standard of care.
The purpose of this research study is to measure the effects of using a mobile phone app (Roadmap 2.0) on the health-related quality of life of caregivers and patients undergoing allogeneic/autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT).
This phase II trial studies how well azacitidine and venetoclax work in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that is in remission. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as azacitidine and venetoclax, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.
This phase II clinical trial studies how well treosulfan, thiotepa, fludarabine, and rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin (rATG) before donor stem cell transplantation works in treating patients with nonmalignant (non-cancerous) diseases. Hematopoietic cell transplantation has been shown to be curative for many patients with nonmalignant (non-cancerous) diseases such as primary immunodeficiency disorders, immune dysregulatory disorders, hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, bone marrow failure syndromes, and hemoglobinopathies. Powerful chemotherapy drugs are often used to condition the patient before infusion of the new healthy donor cells. The purpose of the conditioning therapy is to destroy the patient's abnormal bone marrow which doesn't work properly in order to make way for the new healthy donor cells which functions normally. Although effective in curing the patient's disease, many hematopoietic cell transplantation regimens use intensive chemotherapy which can be quite toxic, have significant side effects, and can potentially be life-threatening. Investigators are investigating whether a new conditioning regimen that uses less intensive drugs (treosulfan, thiotepa, and fludarabine phosphate) results in new blood-forming cells (engraftment) of the new donor cells without increased toxicities in patients with nonmalignant (non-cancerous) diseases.
Patients with acute leukemia or received SCT are hospitalized in protected area, at least for 28 days. In this area, there is some rules like: controlled-visit, protective-clothing….so patient are in social and familial isolation condition. During their hospitalization, patients are confront to aggressive treatment and psychological distress related to potentially death. Emergency hospitalization, illness, controlled environment, aggressive treatment and potential complications place patients in a context of anxiety-provoking. Aesthetic therapy is a new supportive care in cancer therapy access on improving well-being, relaxation and body image. This supportive care is already used in cancerology department, particularly in breast cancer patients. In our department, a few patient received aesthetic care during their hospitalization and they appreciated these sessions and impact on well-being was immediately. Moreover only 6 sessions was proposed and effect on anxiety wasn't measurable Aesthetic care improve well-being but impact on anxiety is unknown. In this study we evaluate the impact off socio aesthetic on the quality off life and anxiety. We evaluate this impact by 3 questionnaires at 3 times during hospitalization.
The analysis of a cohort of consecutive non-selected patients from the Strasbourg University Hospital, and therefore representative of the real life, will allow better identifying the risk factors for these infections (by comparison with a cohort of patient with similar conditions of immunosuppression and no infection) and improving the diagnosis and therapeutic management. The primary objective is to identify prognosis factors affecting survival in patients with opportunistic infections
This study is designed to assess the hypothesis that the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) activity index can be quantified early after transplantation, as well as the the PhosphoLipid Transfer Protein (PLTP) activity and these both biological variables are independent variables for predicting the risk of severe Graft versus Host Disease (GVHD).
This phase II/III trial studies the best approach in improving quality of life and survival after a donor stem cell transplant in older, weak, or frail patients with blood diseases. Patients who have undergone a transplant often experience increases in disease and death. One approach, supportive and palliative care (SPC), focuses on relieving symptoms of stress from serious illness and care through physical, cultural, psychological, social, spiritual, and ethical aspects. While a second approach, clinical management of comorbidities (CMC) focuses on managing multiple diseases, other than cancer, such as heart or lung diseases through physical exercise, strength training, stress reduction, medication management, dietary recommendations, and education. Giving SPC, CMC, or a combination of both may work better in improving quality of life and survival after a donor stem cell transplant compared to standard of care in patients with blood diseases.
To identify the diagnostic and therapeutic approach (efficacy and toxicity) of patients with lymphoid malignant hemopathy who are managed in the hematology department.
