Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of reducing and ultimately eliminating anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) from the haplo-cord transplant conditioning regimen and replacing it with tocilizumab, an IL-6 receptor monoclonal antibody, to improve immune reconstitution and reduce relapse while preserving low rates of graft failure and graft versus host disease (GVHD).
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common, but not well understood complication to treatment with chemotherapy. In this study the investigators will investigate a novel method for early detection of CIPN and compare it to other methods in patients treated for haematological cancers.
The primary objective of this phase 2, multicentric, placebo-controlled double-blind, randomized study is to evaluate the efficacy of the combination of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycine on the viral load drop at day 5 among patients with COVID-19 and hematological malignancies.
The purpose of this study is to determine which of two approaches is helpful to support caregivers of patients undergoing Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HSCT) or Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CAR) T-cell therapy at Seidman Cancer Center. This study will take start before you begin treatment until 2 months after your hospital discharge.
The retrospective cohort study INFINITY will be an instrument to analyze the current practice of precision oncology in the real-world setting. It will provide insight into real-world biomarker-directed treatment of cancer patients not eligible for standard therapies. The study will retrospectively collect medical records' data of patients who received a targeted treatment based on a potentially actionable alteration or biomarker identified by molecular diagnostics. Data of deceased patients will be included. The study will analyze how molecular test results guided clinical decision making. The compiled treatment and outcome data will be a valuable resource to analyze the use and effectiveness of targeted therapy approaches in biomarker-defined and entity-defined subpopulations of cancer patients. These signals might generate new insights and foster progress of targeted cancer treatment. The associated biomarker profiling module aims to set up a decentral biobank for future research on molecular alterations or central re-testing.
This study will validate a previously developed pediatric prognostic biomarker algorithm aimed at improving prediction of risk for the later development of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGvHD) in children and young adults undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant. By developing an early risk stratification of patients into low-, intermediate-, and high-risk for future cGvHD development (based upon their biomarker profile, before the onset of cGvHD), pre-emptive therapies aimed at preventing the onset of cGvHD can be developed based upon an individual's biological risk profile. This study will also continue research into diagnostic biomarkers of cGvHD, and begin work into biomarker models that predict clinical response to cGvHD therapies.
Randomized unblinded interventional clinical trial: Arm Intervention Experimental arm (n=150): Intervention group Administration of the MyPal ePRO system the intervention group will use the ePRO tools provided in the project. Standard care arm (n=150): no intervention besides general palliative care if required general palliative care if required. Patients will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 fashion to use the MyPal system and receive related-intervention versus general palliative care, stratified by cancer type (i.e. CLL vs MDS), using a computer-generated number sequence, which will be concealed until after group assignment.
This is a retrospective/prospective, cohort, non-interventional observational study. This means that all patients with documented COVID and HM diagnosed between February 2020 and study initiation will compose the retrospective part, while those diagnosed after study approval will enter prospective part. The total duration of the study will be 12 months. The study population will must be older than 18 years of age with HM and SARS-CoV-2 infection. All patients with documented SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID) and history or active hematological malignancies, who refer to any Hematological Unit will be included.
This study is for patients that are hospitalized for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). The purpose of this study is to see whether neutralizing interleukin-8 (IL-8) with BMS-986253 can help improve the health condition of participants infected with COVID-19. This is the first in-human study of this investigational product specifically in patients with severe COVID-19. Currently there are no FDA approved medications that improve the chance of survival in patients diagnosed with COVID-19. However there are usual treatments currently being used to help treat COVID-19 patients and BMS-986253 will be compared to these standard of care treatments in this study.
To date, allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (aHSCT) is the only curative treatment for many paediatric and young adult haematological pathologies (acute leukaemia, myelodysplastic syndromes, haemoglobinopathies, bone marrow aplasia, severe combined immunodeficiency). Despite the major therapeutic progress made over the last 50 years, particularly in terms of supportive care, post-transplant morbidity and mortality remains high. Infectious complications, whose incidence varies between 30 and 60%, are the first cause of mortality in the immediate post-transplant period. In order to protect the patient from the occurrence of severe infectious episodes, aHSCTmust be performed in a highly protected environment (positive pressure chambers). This has implications for the experience and impact of hospitalization on the patient and family. This is particularly true in paediatrics, whether in children, adolescents or young adults, where it is not only the patient's quality of life that is at stake, but also their emotional and psychomotor development. In these patients, prolonged hospitalization (at least 6 weeks) in a sterile room will be responsible for physical deconditioning accompanied by a decrease in muscle mass, itself concomitant with undernutrition, and an increase in sedentary lifestyle. This prolonged hospitalisation in a sterile room, associated with myeloablative treatments, is therefore the cause of social isolation of patients, but it is also often synonymous with physical inactivity leading to a rapid decrease in physical condition, quality of life and an increase in fatigue. Today, the benefits of physical activity (PA) during and after cancer treatment have been widely demonstrated. The objective is to evaluate the feasibility of an adapted physical activity program during the isolation phase for achieving aHSCT in children, adolescents and young adults. This is a prospective, interventional, monocentric cohort study conducted at the Institute of Paediatric Haematology and Oncology in Lyon. The intervention will take place during the isolation phase and consists of an adapted physical activity (APA) program defined at inclusion, integrating supervised sessions with an APA teacher, as well as autonomous sessions. The program is individualized according to age, aerobic capacity, and PA preferences. Sessions are also tailored to the biological, psychological, and social parameters of patients. The total duration of the intervention is 3 months. To date, no PA studies have been performed in patients under 21 years of age requiring aGCSH during the sterile isolation phase. EVAADE will therefore be the first study in this population to offer an innovative procedure with a connected device.
