Filter by:This research study is studying a chemotherapy drug Lenalidomide as a possible treatment for one of three histiocyte disorders: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD), or histiocytic sarcoma (HS).
This research study is evaluating a drug called clofarabine as a possible treatment for Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH) and and other histiocytic disorders.
This study gathers health information for the Project: Every Child for younger patients with cancer. Gathering health information over time from younger patients with cancer may help doctors find better methods of treatment and on-going care.
Study Type: Interventional Study Design: Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment Masking: Open Label Primary Purpose: Treatment purpose: This single arm clinical trial is studying efficacy and tolerance of combination chemotherapy with methotrexate and cytosine arabinoside in newly diagnosed adult with Langerhans cell histiocytosis.
The LCH-IV is an international, multicenter, prospective clinical study for pediatric Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis LCH (age < 18 years).
This study's goal is to determine the frequency and severity of acute graft versus host disease, to evaluate incidence of primary and secondary graft rejection, to assess event free survival and overall survival, to determine the time to neutrophil and platelet engraftment, to determine the time to immune reconstitution (including normalization of T, B and natural killer (NK) cell repertoire and Immunoglobulin G production), and to establish the incidence of infectious complications including bacterial, viral, fungal and atypical mycobacterial and other infections following CD34+ selection in children, adolescents and young adults receiving an allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplant from a family member or unrelated adult donor for a non-malignant disease.
This research study is a Phase II clinical trial. Phase II clinical trials test the effectiveness of an investigational drug to learn whether the drug works in treating a specific disease. "Investigational" means that the drug is still being studied and that research doctors are trying to find out more about it-such as the safest dose to use, the side effects it may cause, and if the drug is effective for treating different diseases. It also means that the FDA has not yet approved clofarabine for your disease. Clofarabine is a chemotherapy drug that has been used in the treatment of leukemia in children and adults. Information from other research studies suggests that this drug may also be effective in patients with LCH. The purpose of this study is to estimate the response rates of participants with recurrent LCH to clofarabine within each of two strata: a) low-risk participants with disease reactivation, and b) high-risk participants with risk-organ involvement. Other purposes are to estimate the progression-free survival after clofarabine treatment, estimate survival of participants with refractory multi-system LCH with risk organ involvement treated with clofarabine and to describe toxicities of clofarabine in participants with LCH.
This is a standard of care treatment guideline for allogeneic hematopoetic stem cell transplant (HSCT) in patients with primary immune deficiencies.
this is a multicenter retrospective study on patients with pulmonary LCH who were sequentially evaluated by concomitant lung HRCT and lung function testing. The objectives of this study were: 1) to determine the changes over time of lung function parameters in patients with pulmonary LCH; 2) to compare the variations of HRCT and lung function results during follow-up; 3) to address the respective interest of these investigations for identifying the patients who eventually will experience a progression of their disease.
ECLA is a phase II, multicenter study testing sub cutaneous cladribine 0.1mg/kg/j during 5 days, administrated every month for 4 courses, in symptomatic adult patients with pulmonary Langerhans cell histiocytosis and impairment of lung function patients.
