The purpose of this study is to evaluate two vital sign monitoring devices, TempTraq and VitalTraq, in patients with hematologic malignancies undergoing therapy with Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy (CAR-T) or Bispecific T-cell engagers (BiTE) products. TempTraq is an axillary patch that is worn on the skin and continuously monitors a patient's body temperature. VitalTraq is a smartphone application that utilizes remote photoplethysmography technology via a 30-second facial scan to estimate the patient's blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR), heart rate variability (HRV), and respiratory rate. These remote vital sign monitoring devices have the potential to promote earlier detection and intervention of treatment-related toxicities, including cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and febrile neutropenia.
The purpose of this study is to provide continued access to treatment with pelabresib for patients who previously received pelabresib in a parent study and to continue collecting safety and efficacy information. By collecting efficacy information, the study team monitors if pelabresib helps the patient with their disease. Additionally, survival follow-up data will be collected. Survival follow-up collects information on the patient's leukemia-free survival and overall survival status (life span) during and after the treatment is ended. If a patient stopped pelabresib treatment on the parent study for any other reason than participation in this study, they will not receive further pelabresib treatment, but they can enter the study for survival-follow up only.
This research is being done to investigate the safety and effectiveness of Darzalex Faspro (daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj) (a monoclonal antibody that targets plasma cells that make antibodies) and whether it can lower donor specific antibodies (DSA) levels to low enough levels to permit patients to proceed with allogeneic peripheral blood transplant (alloBMT). Those being asked to participate have high DSA levels that puts those being asked to participate at high risk of rejecting the available donor's blood stem cells and making those being asked to participate ineligible to receive a stem cell transplant.
CAR-T cells (Chimeric Antigen Receptor) are a new immunotherapy, based on the genetic modification of autologous T lymphocytes. CAR-T cell therapy is not devoid of complications. Among the most frequent complications are the risk of infection, cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity. Nevertheless, some authors have reported serious acute cardiac events in a limited number of patients, often contemporaneous with CRS or sepsis, questioning the imputability of CAR-T cells in this heart disease. This study aims to estimate the incidence of a possible early cardiotoxicity associated with CAR-T cells. The main endpoint will be the change in cardiac function (LVEF: left ventricular ejection fraction) assessed by ultrasound between the pre CAR-T assessment and the early post CAR-T ultrasound (D3-D5).
This is a randomized, open label clinical trial among individuals with hematologic conditions. The trial aims to evaluate the safety and clinical outcomes of de-escalating antibiotic therapy among stable individuals diagnosed with neutropenic fever, in which no bacterial infection has been identified.
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.
This is an open, multi-cohort clinical study. The first phase is a dose escalation study and the second phase is a dose expansion study based on the Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) / Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D) obtained in the first phase. The purpose is to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of TQB3909 tablets combined with TQB3702 tablets in hematologic malignancy subjects.
Targeted anticancer drugs have completely changed the prognosis of malignancies during the past decades. Patients suffering from malignancies live longer and this allows adverse events of anticancer drugs to emerge, notably cardiovascular adverse events. It is particularly important because of the great morbimortality of major cardiovascular events like myocardial infarction or stroke and because of their frequency in cancer populations. Indeed, cardiovascular death is the second cause of deaths after malignancy itself in this population. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a non rare cardiovascular adverse events associated with a shorter overall survival in some malignancies localization. The emblematic anticancer drugs promoting AF is ibrutinib belonging to the Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKi), which are indicated in hematological malignancies. Incidence of AF with ibrutinib is estimated to 4.92/100 person-years; 95% CI: 2.91-4.81 but is underestimated because of the absence of systematic electrocardiogram recording. The management of AF rests on anticoagulation if indicated by the CHA2DS2-VASc score, and on the choice between a rate or rhythm control strategy. Rate control is the privileged strategy because of the risk of drugs interactions of the anti-arrhythmic drugs in a context of anticancer drugs co-prescriptions. But in case of symptoms with normal heart rate, life expectancy counted in years and preserved condition, catheter ablation has to be discussed. Whereas this interventional procedure has been greatly studied in the general population, no study exists in patients with hematological malignancies. The investigators aim to describe baseline characteristics of a population of BTKi-induced AF undergone AF catheter ablation.
The CliniMACS® device is FDA-approved only for one indication (CD34+ selection). Additional use of this device outside of this indication requires the use of feasibility studies. Children, adolescents and young adults with malignant and non-malignant conditions undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplants will have stem cells selected using alpha-beta+/CD19+ cell depletion. This is a single arm feasibility study using this processing of peripheral stem cells with alternative donor sources (haploidentical, mismatched, matched unrelated) to determine efficacy as seen by engraftment and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).
