Filter by:New York City (NYC) has become the epicenter of the worldwide pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). By collecting and summarizing the experience with other major health care providers in the tristate (New York (NY), New Jersey (NJ) and Connecticut (CT)) are, the investigators are uniquely positioned to inform the rest of the country about what to expect and how to manage children and young adults with hematological, oncological or stem cell transplant diagnoses during the pandemic.
This research is being done to learn if a new type of haploidentical transplantation using TCR alpha beta and CD19 depleted stem cell graft from the donor is safe and effective to treat the patient's underlying condition. This study will use stem cells obtained via peripheral blood or bone marrow from parent or other half-matched family member donor. These will be processed through a special device called CliniMACS, which is considered investigational.
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.
This is a multi-site, open- label rollover study to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of CTX001 in pediatric and adult participants who received CTX001 in parent studies 111 (NCT03655678) 141 (NCT05356195) or 161 (NCT05477563) (transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia [TDT] studies) or Study 121 (NCT03745287) or 151 (NCT05329649), 161(NCT05477563),171 (NCT05951205) (severe sickle cell disease [SCD] studies).
This prospective monocentric study project is to identify hemoglobinopathies in pregnant women in order to optimize antenatal care and to investigate the prevalence of hemoglobinopathies in pregnant women in Switzerland.
This retrospective study aims to investigate pregnancy outcome in women with heterozygous hemoglobinopathies (regarding gestational diabetes, cholestasis and urinary tract infections) and to analyze if there are aggravated maternal and/or perinatal risks.
This is a single-arm, open-label, multi-site, single-dose Phase 1/2/3 study in subjects with severe sickle cell disease (SCD). The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous CRISPR-Cas9 Modified CD34+ Human Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells (hHSPCs) using CTX001.
This is a long-term follow up study evaluating the safety of BPX-501 T cells (rivogenlecleucel) and infused in pediatric patients previously enrolled on the BP-004 study.
This is a single-arm, open-label, multi-site, single-dose Phase 1/2/3 study in subjects with transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia (TDT). The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous CRISPR-Cas9 Modified CD34+ Human Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells (hHSPCs) using CTX001.
Thiotepa is a chemotherapy drug used extensively in bone marrow transplantation. Thiotepa is a prodrug that undergoes metabolic conversion in the liver by CYP2B6 and CYP3A4 to its primary active metabolite, triethylene phosphoramide (TEPA). The goal of this study is to determine what causes some children to have different drug concentrations of thiotepa and TEPA in their bodies and if drug levels are related to whether or not a child experiences severe side-effects during their bone marrow transplant. The hypothesis is that certain clinical and genetic factors cause changes in thiotepa and TEPA drug levels in pediatric bone marrow transplant patients and that high levels may cause severe side-effects.
