Filter by:The consortium aims to commercialise the MMpredictor as a personalised medicine tool that predicts the most effective treatment strategy for individual Multiple Myeloma (MM) patients. MM is the second most common form of blood cancer contributing to 15% of all blood cancers and ~1,5% and 2% of all cancer deaths annually in the EU and US, respectively. Patients show a large variability in treatment response and side effects due to tumour heterogeneity and the patient's intrinsic characteristics. Therefore, not every treatment will be suitable for each patient, and treatment strategies are often based on trial-and-error. The availability of multiple (>20) treatment options complicates treatment decision-making even more. With the current development of many more promising treatments, there is an urgent unmet clinical need for a diagnostic assay that supports personalised cancer treatment in order to improve patient health outcomes, prevent side effects and reduce healthcare costs. SkylineDx has previously developed the MMprofiler, a microarray-based diagnostic test that can subtype MM patients and reliably predict MM patient survival (prognosis). In this project, the test's clinical value will be expanded to include the prediction of treatment effectiveness in individual patients based on Gene Expression Profiling. An addendum for new intended use will be filed to the current in vitro diagnostic (IVD) registration, while renaming the test to MMpredictor. The project will also focus on positioning the test as a cost-effective IVD test for personalised medicine, that will increase health outcome and quality of life of patients and reduce healthcare costs. The consortium consists of a life science SME specialised in molecular diagnostics, clinical centres with world renowned KOLs, a leading health economic institute, and a European MM patient advocacy organisation combining all the required complementary expertise to successfully bring the MMpredictor to market.
The study is an italian multicentric and will be conducted in 20 centers. The aim of this study is to evaluate poor mobilizer (PM) rate in newly diagnosed MM patients who are mobilized with cyclophosphamide and G-CSF and plerixafor on demand. Plerixafor is a specific reversible inhibitor of the chemokine receptor CXCR4 and prevents the binding of its ligand stromal cell derived factor SDF-1α also known as CXCL12, thereby releasing hematopoietic stem cells into the circulation.
This study compared two main different induction protocols used to treat myeloma eligible patients in Brazil. VCD against CTD.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of venetoclax when given together with ixazomib citrate and dexamethasone and to see how well they work in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has come back. Venetoclax and ixazomib citrate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving venetoclax together with ixazomib citrate and dexamethasone may work better in treating patients with multiple myeloma.
Patients with Multiple Myeloma who are considered for high-dose therapy and autologous transplantation at the bone marrow transplant clinic at the Wilmot Cancer Institute (WCI) will be be approached to participate in this trial. Eligible patients who choose to participate will be randomized so that half receive one hyperbaric oxygen therapy session prior to hematopoetic stem cell infusion and half will not. All subjects will have their blood counts monitored closely and time to count recovery will be compared between the two groups.
This is a prospective, interventional study administering 2 doses of the experimental vaccine (CMV-MVA Triplex) to 20 evaluable patients (10 CMV-seropositive and 10 seronegative) undergoing autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) for lymphoma or myeloma on days 28 and 56 post-HCT. The absolute number of adaptive NK cells (CD56dimCD57+NKG2C+) at various days will be compared.
The primary objective of this study is to compare the detection rate of residual/refractory disease based on standard bone marrow biopsy versus guided myeloma lesion biopsy after induction therapy with carfilzomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone regimen.
This is an open label, single-arm, multicenter, Phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bb2121 in subjects with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma. A leukapheresis procedure will be performed to manufacture bb2121 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) modified T cells. Prior to bb2121 infusion subjects will receive lymphodepleting therapy with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide.
The main purpose of this study is to assess the safety of the combination of JNJ-63723283 and daratumumab (Part 1); to compare the overall response rate (ORR) in participants treated with JNJ-63723283 in combination with daratumumab versus daratumumab alone (Part 2); and to compare progression-free survival (PFS) in participants treated with JNJ-63723283 in combination with daratumumab versus daratumumab alone (Part 3).
The importance of real-world evidence studies stems from the following considerations. The study population of a specific clinical trial needs to meet strict inclusion and exclusion criteria, which result in a population of participants that is not necessarily representative of the study population of interest treated in routine care. Furthermore, the outcomes of a clinical trial occur under controlled conditions that do not necessarily reflect the routine healthcare practice. This is especially true among patient populations with challenging to treat disease such as in MM, where personalized therapeutic approaches are commonly considered taking into consideration the patients' age and associated comorbidities, among other factors. In addition, observational studies, due to their non-interventional nature, often show increased degree of heterogeneity across the enrolled patient populations compared to clinical studies, thus aiding generalizability of the results. In light of the above and due to the scarcity of evidence regarding the outcomes for patients with RRMM receiving Pom/LoDex in routine clinical practice, this retrospective chart review and prospective observational study aims to assess the PFS and response to treatment as well as to obtain real-world evidence on the utilization patterns and management strategy of Pom/LoDex in routine clinical care settings in Greece. This is a non-interventional, multicenter, single-country, retrospective chart review and prospective cohort study which will include a representative sample of patients with RRMM who have been initiated on Pom/LoDex between 01 January 2016 and 28 February 2019 in the third line and beyond treatment setting under routine care conditions in Greece. The study will be carried out by hospital-based hematology specialists practicing in geographically diverse locations throughout Greece and will be conducted under real-world conditions of daily clinical practice.
