Filter by:The purpose of this Phase 1, first in human open-label study is to assess the safety and tolerability of TRX-103 in patients with hematological malignancies undergoing HLA-mismatched related or unrelated hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). It is anticipated that up to 36 Subjects will be enrolled during a 18-24 month enrollment period. TRX-103 will be infused one time post HSCT.
The current healthcare system is unable to identify burdened and vulnerable families affected by cancer, partly due to a lack of knowledge of how cancer affects family health during treatment and survivorship. Recent reviews have documented a general lack of cancer studies including both the patient and the family, and a particular deficiency in studies including more than the spouse. The principal aim of this study is to investigate family health, needs and perceived support, quality of life, self-efficacy, depression, stress and resilience in both patients with cancer and their families across the cancer trajectory. Additionally, the study seeks to identify particularly burdened and vulnerable families and investigate contributing factors to their vulnerability.
Patients with hematological malignancies receive highly myelotoxic chemotherapy regimens that cause periods of severe myelosuppression, which places them at high risk of developing bacteremia. At a global level, a very significant increase in multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative microorganisms, particularly Enterobacteriaceae producing extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) and MDR P.aeruginosa, have been described during the last decade. Among the strategies to reduce bacterial resistance, ceftolozane/tazobactam (C/T) as a "carbapenem-sparing" antibiotic has been proposed. C/T has broad-spectrum activity since it has action against ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae and MDR P. aeruginosa. Studies carried out in the real world using this antibiotic in patients with hematological malignancies have demonstrated clinical success in reports and case series, considered a therapeutic option in patients with Enterobacteriaceae and P. aeruginosa infections, particularly in MDR pathogens. At the National Cancer Institute (in Spanish, Instituto Nacional de Cancerologia), Gram-negative bacilli have been identified for more than 20 years as the pathogens most frequently associated with bacteremia. Escherichia coli occupies the first place in 25% (41% ESBL), followed by Klebsiella spp. in 5.6% (11.2% ESBL) and P. aeruginosa in 5.6% (11.2% MDR). The protocol for approaching and treating hematological malignancy patients with severe neutropenia and fever is to initiate an antimicrobial regimen with piperacillin/tazobactam (P/T). In patients who persist with fever after 48 to 72 hours of starting antibiotics, who present with clinical deterioration, or in whom P/T-resistant bacteria are identified, this is escalated to carbapenem. Therefore, it is proposed to compare the clinical and microbiological response in patients with hematological malignancies who present with severe neutropenia and fever and who present clinical data of bacteremia, with empirical treatment with C/T vs. P/T, trying to reduce the use of carbapenems in this group of patients.
This study evaluates the role of genetic in the development and progression of different nephropaties with particular attention to: - AKI - CKD - Hypertension - ADPKD - CKD-MBD - Patients with decompensated heart failure undergoing either medical or surgery therapy - Patients with hematologic cancer exposed to chemotherapeutic agents or undergoing allogeneic bone marrow transplantation - glomerular diseases
A Study of Metabolically Armed CD19 CAR-T Cells Therapy for Patients With Relapsed and/or Refractory CD19-positive B cell Hematological Malignancies
This is a Phase 1, multicenter, open-label clinical study of HMPL-506 administered orally in the treatment of hematological malignancies. Only eligible patients who provide the signed informed consent form (ICF) can be enrolled in this study. The study consists of two phases, i.e., a dose escalation phase and a dose expansion phase. The study is expected to enroll approximately 60 to 98 patients, including approximately 30 to 38 patients in the dose escalation phase and approximately 30 to 60 patients in the dose expansion phase.
The Improve study is a randomized controlled trial investigating the efficacy of adding comprehensive geriatric assessment and treatment to standard of care compared with standard of care in older, frail patients with hematological cancer. The investigators aim to recruit 152 study participants who will be randomized 1:1 to intervention- or control group. Study participants in the intervention group will receive the intervention comprehensive geriatric assessment and treatment integrated in the cancer treatment. Study participants in the control group will receive cancer treatment and evaluation of comorbidity and frailty as is usual standard at Department of Hematology. Primary endpoint is elderly functional Index at 12 weeks.
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of genetically engineered cells called EGFRt/19-28z/IL-12 CAR T cells, and to see how they work in treating patients with hematologic malignancies that makes a protein called CD19 (CD19-positive) that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-cell Therapy is a type of treatment in which a patient's T cells (a type of immune system cell) are changed in the laboratory so they will attack cancer cells. T cells are taken from a patient's blood. Then the gene for a special receptor that binds to a certain protein on the patient's cancer cells is added to the T cells in the laboratory. The special receptor is called a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). Large numbers of the CAR T cells are grown in the laboratory and given to the patient by infusion for treatment of certain cancers. To improve the effectiveness of the modified T cells and to help the immune system fight cancer cells better, the modified T cells given in this study will include a gene that makes the T cells produce a cytokine (a molecule involved in signaling within the immune system) called interleukin-12 (IL-12). The researchers think that IL-12 may improve the effectiveness of the modified T cells, and it may also strengthen the immune system to fight cancer. Giving EGFRt/19-28z/IL-12 CAR T cells may be safe and tolerable in treating patients with relapsed or refractory CD19+ hematologic malignancies.
The ACC Preclinical Research Platform for Precision Oncology is a retrospective and prospective observational study focused on the implementation and validation of the application of PDCM (Patient Derived Cancer Models) generated from tissues or cells of patients with neoplastic disease, as a tool to improve molecular and biological knowledge of tumours and to test the efficacy and sensitivity of pharmacological treatments.
Systemic mastocytosis with an associated hematologic neoplasm (SM-AHN) is a challenging disease to treat. Targeted KIT inhibitors have been approved for this indication based on their ability to control the mastocytosis portion of the disease, but patients frequently experience progression of the concomitant myeloid malignancy (i.e. the AHN). Using a combination approach to treat both aspects of the disease has the potential to provide enhanced disease control; however, overlapping toxicity is a concern. In this study, investigators aim to study the safety and tolerability of combined avapritinib and decitabine for the treatment of SM-AHN.
