NCT ID: NCT05943964 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Hematopoietic Cell Transplant

Virtual Rehabilitation in HCT

Start date: July 31, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Chronic GVHD (cGVHD) is a major cause of illness in patients who undergo hematopoietic transplantation (HCT). GVHD can affect any organ in the body, can require several years of treatment, and can impact the quality of life (QoL). Physical activity and exercise have been shown to enhance fitness and improve QoL in chronic illnesses including GVHD, however, patients often have barriers to attending sessions including distance, risk of infection, and physical therapists' lack of experience with pediatric patients. The team's goal is to assess whether a virtual rehabilitation program in children post-HCT (including children with chronic GVHD) is feasible and whether its implementation will improve physical functioning and QoL. Patients between the ages of 8 and 21 years who are at least one hundred days post-HCT will be eligible for participation. Patients will have an assessment by a pediatric physical therapist at the time of study entry, at the end of the rehabilitation program, and approximately 3 months later. They will be supplied with some exercise equipment (such as dumbbells and resistance bands). Patients will have twice weekly half-hour one-on-one online sessions with the physical therapist for 12 weeks. Patients will be recruited through the bone marrow transplant clinic.

NCT ID: NCT05550298 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Respiratory Viral Infection

Multi-Center Molecular Diagnosis and Host Response of Respiratory Viral Infections in Pediatric Transplant Recipients

Start date: December 13, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The participants are being asked to take part in this clinical trial, a type of research study, because the participants are scheduled to receive or have recently received a hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) or a solid organ transplant (SOT). Primary Objective To determine if pre-transplant screening for respiratory viral load predicts RVI within 1- year post-transplant among survivors. Secondary Objectives: - To develop and validate a classifier based on pre-transplant immunological profile predictive of developing an acute respiratory viral infection (aRVI), with RSV/PIV3/HMPV/SARS-CoV-2 through one-year post-transplant among survivors. - To develop and validate a classifier based on Day +100 post-transplant immunological profiles predictive of developing an acute respiratory viral infection (aRVI),with RSV/PIV3/HMPV/SARS-CoV-2 through one-year post-transplant among survivors .

NCT ID: NCT05208554 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Hematopoietic Cell Transplant

Physical Activity Intervention for Hematopoietic Cell Transplant Recipients and Caregivers

Start date: February 3, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Levels of physical activity (PA) among cancer survivors are low, yet PA may ameliorate effects of treatment (Phillips et al., 2014). We focus here on PA following the most intensive form of cancer treatment, hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), with multiple sequelae including graft-versus-host disease and cardiovascular and pulmonary complications. PA is diminished post-transplant (Hacker & Mjukian, 2014; Morishita et al., 2017). This decrease is associated with poorer physical functioning (Bennett et al., 2016), in turn associated with greater mortality (Wood et al., 2016). Moderate exercise has been deemed safe for HCT patients (Wiskemann et al., 2014), and PA interventions feasible (Hacker & Mjukian, 2014). Findings regarding efficacy are mixed, largely due to heterogeneity of intervention components and outcomes (Liu et al., 2009; Persoon et al., 2013). All PA interventions in the HCT setting have focused entirely on patients, ignoring an opportunity to synergistically engage and benefit the caregiver, a 24/7 role requiring provision of medical, logistical, and emotional support. Distress is common among HCT caregivers and their own health promotion is neglected (Applebaum et al., 2016). In addition, the patient-caregiver relationship can be compromised, and communication patterns disrupted (Langer et al., 2009). Guided by interdependence (Kelley et al., 1983) and communal coping (Lyons et al., 1998) perspectives, our 8-session PA intervention provides training in communication skills and behavior change techniques to help patient-caregiver dyads support one another in PA. Previous testing with a sample of breast cancer and prostate cancer survivors and caregivers demonstrated feasibility, but relied solely on self-reported PA and self-determined PA goals (Porter et al., 2018). We have adapted this protocol for HCT and will use a wearable device, a Fitbit tracker, to objectively monitor PA and to provide participants with weekly individualized step goals. Specific aims are to: (1) determine feasibility of adherence to a dyad-based PA intervention (# of sessions attended and Fitbit wear adherence) for HCT recipients and caregivers (15 dyads) using a single-group pre-post design; (2) determine acceptability of the intervention (dimensions of treatment satisfaction); and (3) describe patterns of change in PA and communal coping from baseline to follow-up. Findings will inform the design of a randomized controlled trial to test efficacy of the intervention to improve physical endurance and relational well-being.

NCT ID: NCT05164016 Recruiting - Cancer Clinical Trials

Evaluating Immune Response to COVID-19 Vaccines in Patients With Cancer, Transplant or Cellular Therapy Recipients

Start date: June 29, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

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.

NCT ID: NCT04017962 Recruiting - CMV Infection Clinical Trials

A Study of the Drug Letermovir (LTV) as Prevention for Recurrent of Cytomegalovirus (CMV) Infection

Start date: July 19, 2019
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine of letermovir (LTC) is effective at preventing Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection from returning in people who have already had CMV infection after a bone marrow transplant.

Start date: November 15, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this research is to determine if it is possible to perform group drumming as an intervention during HCT, to begin to understand how interactive group drumming during HCT treatment affects patients' well-being (good and bad) during the treatment course and in the first four weeks after completion of the drumming sessions.
