The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether a novel decision support tool called PRIME (Preference Reporting to Improve Management and Experience), which combines values-elicitation with tailored feedback to patients and providers, improves patient-reported values-concordance of initial treatment decisions compared to usual care.
This is a prospective, single-arm, phase II study. Patients will be treated with an allogeneic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) using fludarabine, melphalan and total body irradiation (TBI) conditioning with different melphalan and TBI doses based on patient- and disease-related risk.
This is a single-arm, open-label, single-center, phase I study. The primary objective is to evaluate the safety of CD7 CAR-T therapy for patients with CD7-positive relapsed or refractory T-ALL/LBL, and to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of CD7 CAR-T in patients.
The purpose of this phase 1 study is to determine the optimal dose of the immune suppressive drug, cyclophosphamide, following standard allogeneic stem cell transplant in patients aged >/= 70 years with hematologic malignancies.
This study will be conducted in a randomized, controlled and experimental manner with patients with hematological malignancies admitted to the Adult Bone Marrow Transplant unit and Hematology-Oncology unit of Acıbadem Altunizade Hospital after obtaining the necessary permissions. The number of patients to be included in the study will be determined by power analysis. The study will include patients who are willing to participate, have no communication problems, are 18 years of age or older, and have no known allergy to lavender oil. Patients with allergies, drug addiction and refusal to participate in the study will not be included in the study. Before the study, patients will be divided into intervention and control groups using a simple random number table. At the beginning of the study, a form including socio-demographic and disease information, Richard Campbell Sleep Quality Scale and Piper Fatigue Scale will be evaluated. Two different options will be used to prevent findings. The first group will be treated with lavender oil and the second group will be treated with saline and 2 drops will be placed on the patient's shoulder 20 minutes before bedtime every night. The application will be started simultaneously with the chemotherapy and will continue until the end of chemotherapy treatment. Sleep and fatigue will be assessed daily using the Richard Campbell Sleep Quality Scale and Piper Fatigue Scale.
Background: Bruton s tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKi) are used to treat a form of leukemia. But taking BTKi can also increase a person s risk of developing an abnormal heart rhythm. This can cause sudden death. In this natural history study, researchers want to learn how BTKi affects the heart. Objective: To identify and monitor the effects of BTKi on the heart. Eligibility: People aged 18 and older currently receiving or planning to receive BTKi or venetoclax. Design: Participants who have not yet started BTKi will have 2 required clinic visits: 1 before they start taking BTKi, and 1 about 6 months later. Participants who are already taking BTKi will have 1 required visit. Participants will undergo multiple tests: A physical exam, including collection of blood and saliva. A test that measures heart activity via stickers placed on the chest. A test that uses sound waves to capture images of the heart. An exercise stress test that monitors heart activity and blood pressure while the participant works on a treadmill or stationary bike. Sound wave images of the heart may also be taken while the participant exercises. Stress magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may be done in place of an exercise test. Participants will lie on a table that slides into a tube. They will be given drugs to stress the heart while images are taken. Participants may wear a device to monitor their heart at home. Participants may have repeat visits if they develop heart symptoms or if they need to stop taking BTKi. They will have follow-up phone calls each year for up to 3 years.
Background: People living with HIV(PLWH) are at a higher risk for cancers that may be curable with a bone marrow transplant. HIV infection itself is no longer a reason to not get a transplant, for patients who otherwise have a standard reason to need transplant. Objective: This study is being done to see if a new combination of drugs (cyclophosphamide, maraviroc, and bortezomib) is both safe and effective at protecting against graft-versus-host disease after bone marrow transplant. The study will also test the transplant s impact on your survival and control of your cancer. Eligibility: People aged 18 years and older living with HIV and a blood cancer that is eligible for a transplant. Healthy family members aged 12 or older who are half matched to transplant recipients are also needed to donate bone marrow. Design: The study will be done in 2 phases. The first phase will be to see if we can safely use a new combination of drugs to prevent GVHD. If the combination is safe in the first phase, the study will proceed to the second phase. In the second phase, we will see if this new combination can better protect against GVHD after transplant. Participants will be screened. Their diagnoses, organ function and eligibility will be confirmed. Participants will have a catheter inserted into a vein in their chest or neck. Medications and transfusions will be given through the catheter; blood will be drawn from it. Participants will be in the hospital for 6 weeks or longer. They will receive various drugs for 2 weeks to prep their body for the transplant. The transplant cells will be administered through the catheter. Participants will continue to receive drug treatments after the transplant. Blood transfusions may also be needed. Participants will return 1-2 times per week for follow-up visits for 3 months after discharge. Participants will have visits 6, 12, 18, 24 months after transplant, then once a year for 5 years.
This is a pilot study to assess the preliminary efficacy of an inpatient advance care planning intervention on outcomes in older patients with hematologic malignancies
Background: Non-Hodgkin lymphomas are blood cancers that can be difficult to treat. They can also return after treatment. Examples include diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). More effective treatments are needed for these diseases. Objective: To test the safety of a study drug (VIP152) in combination with other drugs used to treat people with aggressive blood cancers. Eligibility: People aged 18 years or older diagnosed with DLBCL, PTCL, or related blood cancers. The cancers must have either not responded to treatment or returned after treatment. Design: Participants will undergo screening. They will have a physical exam with scans and blood and urine tests. They will have imaging scans and tests of their heart function. They may also provide a bone marrow aspiration or biopsy. Participants may provide a saliva sample for DNA testing. Participants will receive study treatment in cycles. Each cycle is 21 days. Participants will take two drugs by mouth at home once a day on days 1-10 of each cycle. On days 2 and 9 they will come to the clinic to receive VIP152. This drug will be administered through a small plastic tube with a needle placed in a vein. On day 11, participants will receive a fourth medication as an injection under the skin. They will rest and recover on days 12-21. Screening tests will be repeated periodically throughout the study period. Treatment will continue for up to 24 cycles. Participants will have follow-up visits for up to 5 years.
