Filter by:An open label single-arm clinical trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, and preliminary efficacy of HMPL-306 in subjects with advanced relapsed, refractory, or resistant hematological malignancies that harbor IDH mutations.
This retrospective observational cohort study aims to describe the impact of COVID-19 in patients treated with autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for malignant disease in terms of risk factors, morbidity, need for supportive care and mortality. All patients treated with ASCT in Sweden from 1st January 2020 until 31st December 2020 are eligible for this study. Patients who also has tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 from start of conditioning or later will be identified through the national registry of the Public Health Agency of Sweden and a systematic analysis of their medical records will be performed.
This is a single-center prospective pharmacokinetic study. The principal objective is to collect new data among patients with hematologic cancer to develop a Bayesian population pharmacokinetic model and to improve dose adjustment of intravenous vancomycin. Approximately 40 subjects meeting the inclusion and no exclusion criteria will be enrolled in the study. Vancomycin blood concentration will be measured at steady-state at three different moment for each participant : immediately before the infusion, 1 hour after the infusion and during the elimination phase (at 3, 4 or 5 hours after the infusion). This additional vancomycin serum concentration in the elimination phase will be used to estimate more precisely the vancomycin pharmacokinetic parameters in this specific population including the distribution volume and the elimination of the molecule. Ultimately, the purpose of this study is to create a nomogram to predict the optimal initial vancomycin dosing in adult patients with a hematologic cancer.
The aim is to study the effect of a systematic approach to symptom identification and management with disease specific and clinically developed PRO (HM-PRO) with a 12 month follow up in outpatient care in patients with chronic hematological malignancy.
Physical activity levels of adult hematologic cancer patients are deficient. The resulting physical inactivity causes fatigue, muscle loss, and deterioration in physical performance values. However, physical exercise programs still play a minor role in treating hematological malignancies. In addition, there are no reliable data in the literature regarding risk factors, feasibility, and exercise results in individuals with hematological malignancies. Although it is known that the use of corticosteroids, which are among the drugs given during chemotherapy, causes muscle weakness, there are no physical exercise programs performed with this patient group in the literature. The current study aims to compare the effects of resistance exercise and resistance exercise combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation on muscle strength, functional lower extremity strength, and mobility in hematological cancer patients during chemotherapy.
D1. Primary Objective: 1. Determine the immunogenicity of FDA approved COVID-19 vaccination in patients with hematologic malignancies D2. Secondary Objectives: 1. Assess the safety of FDA approved COVID-19 vaccination in patients with hematologic malignancies 2. Analyze the kinetics of immunogenic response over time after receipt of the COVID-19 vaccination 3. Compare the immunogenicity of different COVID-19 vaccinations that will be approved by the FDA 4. Analyze advanced flow immunophenotyping of innate and adaptive immune blood cells in all participants and correlate with response to vaccination
Voriconazole is a drug used to treat invasive fungal infections. The amount of voriconazole in a person's blood helps to determine how effectively it treats an infection, and how safe it is. Patients respond differently when receiving the same dose - some clearly benefit, other patients experience side effects, and others see limited improvement in their infection. Voriconazole is broken down in the liver mainly by an enzyme called CYP2C19, before being excreted from the body. The activity of CY2C19 differs between people because of variation in the DNA that encodes the body's instructions to make CYP2C19. If CYP2C19 activity is very high, voriconazole blood levels may remain below the target range when a patient receives a standard dose of voriconazole, which may be insufficient to treat their infection. Besides, children tend to have faster voriconazole metabolism regardless of the genetic makeup, mainly because of higher liver mass/body proportion. That's why, younger patients needs higher doses and it is harder for them to reach target range. Having a high CYP2C19 activity and being young combined may cause to consider choosing an alternative drug. By contrast, decreased CYP2C19 activity due to genetic variation may result in excessively high voriconazole blood levels, predisposing to serious side effects. Therefore, knowing a patient's CYP2C19 genetic makeup is very important for predicting their response to voriconazole. Thus, we aim to determine the influence of genetic variation in CYP2C19 on the frequency and severity of side effects related to voriconazole, and on the effectiveness of voriconazole for treating serious fungal infections. The findings from this study will contribute to determining the optimal dose of voriconazole that patients with different genetic variants in CYP2C19 should be started on, and will take us one step closer to both understanding the genetic structure of CYP2C19 in the Turkish population, and to 'personalised medicine'.
Determination of both the degree and duration of the immunity provided after receiving the BNT162b2 vaccine against SARS-Cov-2.
This is a multi-center, prospective, open, observational and optimal clinical research to evaluate the clinical effectiveness and safety of different doses of micafungin sodium for injection in patients with hematological tumors.
All patients undergoing allogeneic or autologous HSCT at the participating centres will be observed. Once a diagnosis of CNS disorder is made, additional data will be reported for these patients. We will identify clinical and diagnostic characteristics such as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and neuroimaging patterns, risk factors, response to treatment (including novel antifungal agents such as isavuconazole) and outcome. In addition, risk factors for CNS disorders after allogeneic and autologous HSCT will be analyzed using a prospectively assessed matched control group. In the future, this study might be the basis for an interventional trial (e.g. using a prophylactic approach).
