Filter by:The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety of Talquetamab and to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose(s) (RP2Ds) and dosing schedule assessed to be safe for Talquetamab (Part 1 [Dose Escalation]) and to further characterize the safety of Talquetamab at the recommended Phase 2 dose(s) (RP2Ds) (Part 2 [Dose Expansion]).
Assessment of the Safety and Feasibility of Administering T cells Expressing an Anti-CD19 Chimeric Antigen Receptor to Patients With CD19+ B-cell Hematological Malignancies.
The investigators have previously shown the absence of toxicity of Treg-depleted-DLI and the possibility to triggering alloreactivity (GVHD/GVT) in relapsing patients dealing with hematological malignancies who had never shown any signs of GVHD after transplant or after one or more DLI. The Investigators, we plan to demonstrate the benefit of Treg-depleted DLI as compared to the reference treatment of relapse in hematological malignancies after allogeneic HSCT which is currently based on standard DLI
The purpose of this study is to identify the recommended Phase 2 dose(s) (RP2Ds) and schedule assessed to be safe for Teclistamab and to characterize the safety and tolerability of Teclistamab at the RP2Ds.
This study evaluates the frequency of occurrence, severity, and response to treatment by a chemical agent, notably the dimerizer AP1903 (Bellicum Pharmaceuticals compagny), in the case of acute Graft versus Host Disease (aGvHD) occurring after the administration of T-lymphocytes expressing iCASP9 and concomitantly to a bone marrow graft depleted in B- and T-lymphocytes
Interventional, open label, Phase I/II, Safety and Proof-of-Concept Study, with a follow up period of 180 days after the transplantation of ApoGraft.
In this prospective multicentric study, the University of Pavia together with the Fondazione IRCCS Policlinico San Matteo, Pavia and the IRCCS Fondazione Maugeri, Pavia, Italy will provide a systematic analysis of gene mutations in hematological malignancies by using NGS techniques. Patients with a conclusive diagnosis of haematological malignancies according to WHO criteria referred to the Rete Ematologica Lombarda clinical network (REL, www.rel-lombardia.net) will be enrolled. The investigators will analyse genomic DNA extracted from hematopoietic cells at different time points of patient disease. The study contemplates the use of molecular platforms (Next Generation Sequencing, NGS) aimed at the identification of recurrent mutations in myeloid and lymphoid neoplasms, respectively. Screening of gene mutations by NGS will be prospectively implemented in the context of REL clinical network. Patient samples will be analyzed at diagnosis and sequentially during the course of the disease at specific timepoints. The researchers will analyze the correlations between somatic mutations, specific clinical phenotypes (according to the WHO classification) and disease evolution. This will allow to: 1) identify new recurrent genetic mutations involved in the molecular pathogenesis of hematological malignancies; 2) define the role of mutated genes, distinguishing between genes which induce a clonal proliferation of hematopoietic stem cells, and genes which determine the clinical phenotype of the disease; 3) identify mutations which are responsible for disease evolution; 4) define the diagnostic/prognostic role of the identified mutations, and update the current disease classifications and prognostic scores by including molecular parameters. A systematic biobanking of biological material will be provided.
This observational study is proposed to observe the effect of high-dose, post-transplantation cyclophosphamide after a T cell-replete, HLA-matched PBSC graft from an HLA-identical or mismatched donor.
Blood cancers occur when the molecules that control normal cell growth are damaged. Many of these changes can be detected by directly examining parts of the cancer or cells in blood. Several alterations that occur repeatedly in certain types of blood cancers have already been identified, and these discoveries have led to the development of new drugs that target those alterations. More remain to be discovered. Some of these abnormalities include alterations in genes. Genes are the part of cells that contain the instructions which tell the investigators bodies how to grow and work, and determine physical characteristics such as hair and eye color. Genes are composed of DNA letters that spell out these instructions. Studies of the DNA molecules that make up the genes are called "molecular" analyses. Molecular analyses are ways of reading the DNA letters to identify errors in genes that may contribute to an increased risk of cancer or to the behavior of the cancer cells. Some changes in genes occur only in cancer cells. Others occur in the genes that are passed from parent to child. This research study will examine both kinds of genes. The best way to find these genes is to study large numbers of people. The investigators expect that as many 1000 individuals will enroll in this study. This research study is trying to help doctors and scientists understand why cancer occurs and to develop ways to better treat and prevent it. To participate in this study the participant must have cancer now, had it in the past, or are at risk of developing cancer. The participant will not undergo tests or procedures that are not required as part of their routine clinical care. The investigators will ask the participant to provide an additional sample from tissue that is obtained for their clinical care including blood, bone marrow, or tissue sample. The investigators will also ask for a gentle scrape of the inside of their cheek, mouthwash or a skin sample to obtain their germline DNA
The purpose of this study is to discover genetic changes associated with different cancers. With the information from this study the investigators hope to provide better ways to prevent, detect and treat many cancers. Many diseases can result from changes in a person's genetic material that causes cells to not work properly. Currently, researchers and doctors know some of the genetic changes that can cause disease, but they do not know all of the genetic changes that can cause disease. This project is designed to identify genetic changes that can cause cancer in humans. Specimens will be collected from a scheduled diagnostic or routine (i.e. blood draw for counts) procedure and may include samples from the tissue itself (surgery), bone marrow, blood, saliva, urine, spinal fluid, sputum, joint fluid, seminal fluid, ascites (a fluid that fills up in the abdomen), and/or pleural fluid (fluid in the lung cavity), to either confirm the diagnosis of cancer or to help to decide how best to treat cancer or other illness. Additionally archived tissue may be analyzed. Samples may be stored for future use in later experiments. The Department of Pathology at Rhode Island Hospital will store the samples. Information from the medical record, such as responses to treatments or family history of cancer, will be collected.
