Filter by: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.
Viral infections remain an important cause of morbidity and mortality after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT), especially after myelo-ablative conditioning and if the donor is antigen-mismatched or haplo-identical.. In the described setting the patient's own immune system has been destroyed by the necessary highly immuno- and myelo-ablative conditioning and all memory against infections has been deleted. Therefore, there is a high risk for several viral infections and other infectious organisms.Both primary viral infections and reactivations can occur, and patients can become refractory to antiviral treatments, or in some cases an adequate antiviral treatment is unavailable or too toxic. In this study, the investigators will target CMV, as refractory CMV infection and disease is accompanied by an extremely high mortality rate and therefore the development of new treatment approaches is required. Despite the available antiviral drugs, a considerable number of patients are facing an insufficient control of CMV reactivation after SCT. Because reconstitution of CMV-specific T cells confer protection against the development of CMV disease after SCT, attempts have been made to restore antiviral immunity by direct infusion of CMV-specific T cells. Most clinical cellular immunotherapy protocols for CMV treatment have used CMV-specific cytotoxic CD8+ T-cell lines generated by repetitive in vitro stimulation with CMV antigens with success. Despite the proven efficacy, use of cellular therapy in the clinic has been limited, because the approach is time and labor consuming and requires specialized facility allowing handling of the therapeutic cells according to good manufacturing practice. In addition, no sustained response was seen after adoptive transfer that involved only cytotoxic CD8+ T cells. This phenomenon is supported by the fact that recall responses to latent infections depend on the presence of CD4+ T cells to help cytotoxic CD8+ T cells. An alternative approach for the transfer of T-cell immunity is the isolation of Ag-specific T cells ex vivo from the blood of CMV seropositive donors, based on interferon γ (IFN-γ) secretion of T cells after in vitro stimulation with viral Ag, resulting in a combination of CD4+ T helper and cytotoxic CD8+ CMV specific T cells. Using this strategy, a short-term ex vivo protocol was developed for the isolation of pp65 (CMV immunodominant protein)-specific T cells. Since then, several centers have used this protocol in the clinic, infusing low numbers of pp65-specific T cells, that were able to restore protective T-cell immunity against CMV in a post SCT setting in patients with refractory CMV disease or viremia. For this protocol the investigators have set up and validated this method of CMV-specific T-cell generation in the Ghent University Hospital and the investigators will make it available for other Belgian transplant centers.
This clinical trial is a Phase 1, open-label, sequential-group, dose-escalation (Part 1) and cohort-expansion study (Part 2) evaluating the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and antitumor activity of intravenously (IV) administered CBL0137 in participants with previously treated hematological malignancies.
Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a rare disease characterized by an aggressive clinical behavior and a poor prognosis. It predominantly affects elderly males with an average age of 67 years at diagnosis and the affected organs are usually the skin, bone marrow, lymph nodes and the central nervous system. Patients with BPDCN have poor outcomes with median overall survival (OS) ranging in the largest series of patients from 8 to 12 months. Patient care must be defined in this pathology. Despite 40%-90% complete remission (CR) rates after initial chemotherapy, relapses are almost inevitable. The investigators have developed a national network to collect clinical and biological data of French patients diagnosed with BPDCN.
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
This protocol is a pilot study on standard care. The main goal is to assess the impact of positioning on lumbar puncture process especially on pain sensitivity in children. It's a prospective, monocentric, randomized, open-label, cross-over study. Inclusion period is one year, and number of inclusions forecasted is about 30. Each patient will have one LP in a seated position and one in a lying position.
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.
Recently, European Medicines Agency approved ibrutinib and idelalisib to treat Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) and two lymphomas: Follicular Lymphoma (FL) for ibrutinib and Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) for idelalisib. Clinical trials for ibrutinib and idelalisib were performed with a small number of patients (300-350) and showed several side effects profiles. Since, pharmacokinetic properties of these 2 drugs highlight a interindividual variability of pharmacokinetic. The aim of this study is to determine the association between clinically significant side effects occurrence during the first year of treatment and plasma mean concentration of the steady state of ibrutinib or idelalisib at 1 month.
This study is an open-label, controlled, multicenter, international, Phase III, randomized study of transplantation of NiCord® versus transplantation of one or two unmanipulated, unrelated cord blood units in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia or acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, chronic myeloid leukemia or lymphoma, all with required disease features rendering them eligible for allogeneic transplantation.
