Filter by:Research has shown that early palliative care in cancer care is associated with improved symptom management, better prognostic understanding, improved quality of life for patients and family caregivers, and even improved survival. Yet, in spite of the proven benefits of integration of palliative care in oncology, it has been well established that patients with hematologic malignancies and those undergoing cellular therapy (hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy) do not routinely receive palliative care. Most of the published research on the early integration of palliative care in oncology describes studies that have involved patients with solid tumours. To date, only one randomized trial examining the impact of integrated palliative care among patients undergoing HSCT has been published and there have been no studies examining the impact of integrated palliative care for patients undergoing CAR T-cell therapy. The American Society of Clinical Oncology recommends early palliative care for patients with advanced cancers or for those with high symptom burden. Patients with blood cancers experience high symptom burden and in the last 30 days of life, compared to patients with solid tumours, patients with blood cancers are more likely to die in hospital, have more intensive care unit admissions, have prolonged hospitalizations (>14 days), and pass away in an acute care facility. There is an urgent need to proactively address suffering throughout cellular therapy trajectories, even before treatment starts, so that patients and caregivers are not inevitably waiting for symptoms to arise before they can be addressed and to optimize quality of life for patients undergoing transplant as well as their family caregivers. PALS_CT will compare early palliative care to standard care for patients and their family caregivers undergoing HSCT or CAR T-cell therapy for blood cancers.
This is a randomized, open-label, multicenter study to compare the efficacy and safety of AZA with or without ATRA in newly diagnosed unfit AML or Intermediate,High or Very High Risk MDS
This is a Phase I, open-label, dose-escalation clinical study with the primary objective of evaluating the safety and tolerability of PA3-17 injection in adult subjects with CD7-positive relapsed/refractory lymphoid hematologic malignancies. The secondary objectives are as follows: to evaluate the proliferation and in vivo persistence of CD7-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells after injection of PA3-17; to evaluate the proportion of CD7-positive cells in peripheral blood after injection of PA3-17; to preliminarily evaluate the efficacy of PA3-17 injection in adult subjects with CD7-positive relapsed/refractory lymphoid hematologic malignancies; to evaluate the immunogenicity of PA3-17 injection; and to explore the applicable dose in Phase II trial.
Allogeneic Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an effective treatment for all array of blood or blood-producing organ disorders. Graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) occurs as a result of an overactive immunological system against normal host tissues. It can happen in the liver, skin, mucosal surface of the eye, gastrointestinal tract, and genitalia. Ocular GVHD occurs in 30-70% of patients after HSCT. It mainly affects the ocular surface, including the conjunctiva and cornea. In severe cases, multiple clinical manifestations can lead to painful non-healing corneal ulcers, secondary infections, and visual loss. oGVHD can be debilitating and severely impact patients' quality of life. However, there are no widely accepted guidelines available for prevention and management. In collaboration with the Department of Haematology of Queen Mary Hospital, the investigators set out to establish a territory-wide cohort of patients receiving HSCT. Primarily, the investigators aim to establish the population-based epidemiology of oGVHD and understand the natural history and the long-term ophthalmic outcomes of oGVHD via this study.
This study is being done because the investigators would like to learn more about how well the COVID-19 vaccine works in participants with cancer or those who have received a transplant or cellular therapy. Primary Objective Assess the immunogenicity to COVID-19 vaccination in patients with cancer and/or transplant and cellular therapy (TCT) recipients. Secondary Objectives - Evaluate the antibodies response to COVID-19 vaccination in immunocompromised patients. - Evaluate the T cell response to COVID-19 vaccination in immunocompromised patients. Exploratory Objectives - Assess incidence and severity of COVID-19 infections by 6 months following immunization with a SARS CoV-2 vaccine. - Assess the durability immune response to COVID-19 vaccination. - Assess the immunogenicity of COVID-19 vaccination in immunocompetent children and adolescents without cancer and have not undergone transplant or received cellular therapy.
This is a prospective non-randomized national clinical phase 2 trial that aims to determine the efficacy and toxicity of targeted anticancer drugs or combinations that are approved or under review by EMA, FDA or PMDA and are used for treatment of patients with advanced cancer with a potentially actionable variant as revealed by a genomic, RNA-molecular or protein expression test.
The purpose of this study is to understand the breadth of molecular characteristics present in participants cared for in a large integrated, community-based health care system. Using comprehensive genomic profiling and proteomics, the investigators seek to identify the underlying genomic drivers of premalignant or malignant conditions in participants across different stages of disease development and cancer types. Comprehensive molecular profiling will consist of somatic tumor testing (tissue and/or blood) using whole exome sequencing, whole transcriptome sequencing, proteomics, and selected instances of whole genome sequencing. In addition, the investigators seek to perform broad hereditary cancer testing in affected participant populations. Hereditary testing has implications in screening, prognosis, and therapeutics for affected participants, as well as broad implications for genetic counseling and cascade testing. In order to maximize the value of genomic information, participants consented to this protocol will have their electronic health records (both retrospectively and prospectively) abstracted, curated, annotated and linked to genomic information obtained though the testing performed. Given the long-term value of this data, participants will also be asked to voluntarily consent to have their samples stored in a biobank and have their de-identified information used for future research. Information collected across this participant population will aid in advancing the investigators' knowledge of cancer biology, to discover and validate biomarkers associated with clinical outcomes, and shared in collaborative projects in order to promote the study of cancer.
To determine the safety, efficacy and optimal cell dose of CAR 5/IL15-transduced CB-NK cells in patients with relapsed/refractory T-cell malignances, mantle cell lymphoma, and chronic lymphocytic leukemia. The efficacy and optimal dose will be identified for individual diseases.
In this study, the safety, tolerability and preliminary effectiveness of GNC-035 in patients with relapsed/refractory hematologic malignancies will be investigated to assess the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or maximum administered dose (MAD) for MTD is not reached of GNC-035.
The aim of the study is to assess the prevalence of functional decline in elderly patients treated with chemotherapy or immunochemotherapy for lymphoid hematologic malignancies. For this purpose, each patient benefits at inclusion (D0) of a standardized gerontological evaluation, and 3 and 6 months post-inclusion.
