Filter by:PRO-RED is a prospective, longitudinal, and multicenter observational study. Enrolled patients will be followed for 6 months in at least monthly intervals in terms of their received red blood cell transfusions and routine myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS)-associated clinical parameters. In addition, the participating subjects will be provided with a digital/mobile application covering a smartphone app or paper-based questionnaires to answer a set of quality of life (QoL) questions once a week. During routine visits in the clinical trials center performed by the treating physician (at least every month), patients will answer standardized questionnaires for the assessment of MDS-related QoL. Also, included patients will take a photo of fingernails/eyelids with their smartphone camera with the aim to further analyze these pictures in a way to potentially deduct correlated hemoglobin (Hb)-values. As a long term aim beyond the PRO-RED study, the data will serve as a training cohort for the development of an algorithm for image-based calculation of individual Hb levels.
The main goal of the project is provision of a global registry for mitochondrial disorders to harmonize previous national registries, enable world-wide participation and facilitate natural history studies, definition of outcome measures and conduction of clinical trials.
Tagraxofusp is a protein-drug conjugate consisting of a diphtheria toxin redirected to target CD123 has been approved for treatment in pediatric and adult patients with blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN). This trial aims to examine the safety of this novel agent in pediatric patients with relapsed/refractory hematologic malignancies. The mechanism by which tagraxofusp kills cells is distinct from that of conventional chemotherapy. Tagraxofusp directly targets CD123 that is present on tumor cells, but is expressed at lower or levels or absent on normal hematopoietic stem cells. Tagraxofusp also utilizes a payload that is not cell cycle dependent, making it effective against both highly proliferative tumor cells and also quiescent tumor cells. The rationale for clinical development of tagraxofusp for pediatric patients with hematologic malignancies is based on the ubiquitous and high expression of CD123 on many of these diseases, as well as the highly potent preclinical activity and robust clinical responsiveness in adults observed to date. This trial includes two parts: a monotherapy phase and a combination chemotherapy phase. This design will provide further monotherapy safety data and confirm the FDA approved pediatric dose, as well as provide safety data when combined with chemotherapy. The goal of this study is to improve survival rates in children and young adults with relapsed hematological malignancies, determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of tagraxofusp given alone and in combination with chemotherapy, as well as to describe the toxicities, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamic properties of tagraxofusp in pediatric patients. About 54 children and young adults will participate in this study. Patients with Down syndrome will be included in part 1 of the study.
This is a phase II single-center study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of vibecotamab, a CD3-CD123 bispecific antibody, in patients with acute myeloid leukemia with persistent or recurrent measurable residual disease and in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome that has not responded to or relapsed after conventional therapy
Study to assess venetoclax + azacitidine and donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with blasts < 30% in relapse after allohematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT).
Myeloid malignancies which include AML (acute myeloid leukemia) and MDS (myelodysplatic syndrome) are cancers of the bone marrow which lead to bone marrow failure. The bone marrow is the place or factory in the body where components of blood such as red cells, platelets and white cells are made. In bone marrow failure, the ability of the bone marrow to make these cells is decreased. The decreased bone marrow function is the result from abnormalities that develop in the malignant cells which prevent the normal maturation process by which bone marrow cells develop into red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. The malignant cells in the bone marrow are not good at maturing to make the components of the blood that you need, they occupy space in the bone marrow and prevent the function of remaining normal bone marrow cells. DNA is a chemical substance within cells that stores information needed for cell growth and cell behavior. One approach to treating the malignant cells is to give chemotherapy which damages DNA within these cells and causes their death. Unfortunately, such therapy has side-effects, since even normal cells can be affected by the treatment. Decitabine is FDA approved for treatment of MDS and AML. Venetoclax is approved for AML in combination with Azacitidine for patients with AML or are over age 75 or unfit for chemotherapy. In this study, Decitabine and venetoclax will be administered using a low dose weekly schedule in an attempt to improve efficacy by decreasing the side effects often seen when these drugs are given at standard dosing.
Study of the combination of luspatercept in low-risk myelodysplastic syndrom (LR-MDS) without ring sideroblasts (RS) having failed or being ineligible to ESA
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of a study drug called fedratinib in participants with myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms (MDS/MPNs) and chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL).
This is a randomized, open-label, multicenter study to compare the efficacy and safety of AZA with or without ATRA in newly diagnosed unfit AML or Intermediate,High or Very High Risk MDS
Post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCY) has become increasingly popular in the haploidentical HCT setting because it overcomes the HLA-mismatch barrier and levels GVHD risk. This advantage may also prove useful in the context of unrelated donor (UD) transplantation. GVHD prophylaxis for matched unrelated donor hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) in Europe is mainly conducted with ATG. Still, the burden of acute and chronic GVHD and especially of relapse remains high with both approaches for GVHD prevention. PTCY has not been tested against the current standard ATG for GvHD prophylaxis in large randomized trials. The goal of this trial is to compare the outcomes of PTCY and ATG for patients receiving unrelated donor PBSCT. PTCY-based prophylaxis promises to have beneficial net effects on immune reconstitution, GVHD and disease control, and thus might impact on patient survival.
