Filter by:Diffusion-weighted Whole Body Magnetic Resonance Imaging (WB-MRI) is a new technique that builds on existing Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) technology. It uses the movement of water molecules in human tissue to define with great accuracy cancerous cells from normal cells. Using this technique the investigators can much more accurately define the spread and rate of cancer growth. This information is vital in the selection of patients' treatment pathways. WB-MRI images are obtained for the entire body in a single scan. Unlike other imaging techniques such as computed Tomography (CT) or Positron Emission Tomography (PET) PET/CT there is no radiation exposure. Despite the considerable advantages that this new technique brings, including "at a glance" assessment of the extent of disease status, WB-MRI requires a significant increase in the time required to interpret one scan. This is because one whole body scan typically comprises several thousand images. Machine learning (ML) is a computer technique in which computers can be 'trained' to rapidly pin-point sites of disease and thus aid the radiologist's expert interpretation. If, as the investigators believe, this technique will help the radiologist to interpret scans of patients with myeloma more accurately and quickly, it could be more widely adopted by the NHS and benefit patient care. The investigators will conduct a three-phase research plan in which ML software will be developed and tested with the aim of achieving more rapid and accurate interpretation of WB-MRI scans in myeloma patients.
The purpose of this study is to test any good and bad effects of giving a combination of study drugs before and after autologous stem cell transplant.
This is an open-label phase 1 study to assess the safety and pharmacodynamics of CART-BCMA, with or without huCART19, in patients responding to first- or second-line therapy for high-risk multiple myeloma. The regimen evaluated in this study is based on established safety of CARTBCMA demonstrated in UPCC 14415/IRB#822756 at dose of 5x108 cells, administered as split infusions, following cyclophosphamide 1.5 g/m2 in patients with relapsed/refractory myeloma. This study tests CART-BCMA (1) as consolidation of early therapy for multiple myeloma, (2) with addition of fludarabine to the lymphodepleting chemotherapy regimen, (3) in combination with huCART19, and (4) as a single rather than split-dose infusion.
A study designed tocompare progression-free survival (PFS) in participants with t(11;14)-positive MM treated with venetoclax in combination with dexamethasone versus pomalidomide in combination with dexamethasone.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn how the experimental medicine maplirpacept (PF-07901801) affects people with various types of blood cancers: - relapsed or refractory (R/R) lymphoma - multiple myeloma - newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This trial will be conducted in the outpatient setting in 2 parts, phase 1a and phase 1b. You may only participate in one part of the study. During phase 1a of this study, we will explore how much maplirpacept (PF-07901801), when used by itself, can be safely used. If you have lymphoma, the study medicine maplirpacept (PF-07901801) will be given by infusion through a vein once a week or once every 2 weeks or every 3 weeks as determined by your doctor. Following your first dose, you will be expected to come back twice more the first week. From week 2, you will have weekly visits for blood tests, questions about your medications, any side effects, or illnesses you may have experienced and your cancer response. After you have completed 21 days (for every week dosing) or 42 days (for every 2- or 3-weeks dosing), your doctor will discuss whether you should stop study treatment or continue. If you continue, you will be expected to come back weekly for blood tests, vital signs, a brief physical exam, asked about any side effects or illnesses you may have experienced and medications you may be taking. The dosing schedule you are assigned to will continue until your disease has worsened, significant side effects occur or other reasons that lead you and your doctor to decide treatment may be stopped. To be eligible for the first part of the study you must be 18 years or older, your disease has worsened after receiving other medicines approved for blood cancer, no other treatment options exist for you, a sample of your tissue for exploratory research which can be taken from tissue already obtained or if necessary, a new sample of your tissue will be taken so your disease may be seen and measured on routine tests/scans. If you have had radiation therapy or received any anticancer medication within 14 days before the planned start of study treatment your doctor will let you know if you are eligible to participate in the study. If you have had major surgery within 30 days before the planned start of study treatment you may not be eligible to participate. The phase 1a part of the study may last up to 51/2 years. How long you participate in this study depends on side effects you may have to the study drug. It also depends on how your cancer responds to the study drug. Therefore, you may remain in the study as long as you and your study doctor think you may benefit. However, you are free to stop taking part in this study at any time and for any reason. During phase 1b part of this study, we will explore how much maplirpacept (PF-07901801), when used with other anticancer medicine(s), can be safe and reduce cancer growth. In the phase 1b part of this study, you will receive maplirpacept (PF-07901801) and other anticancer medicine(s). Which medicine combination you will receive depends on the types of cancer under treatment. Your treatment experiences will be examined to determine if maplirpacept (PF-07901801) when given with other anticancer medicine(s), is safe and can reduce cancer growth. To be eligible for the second part of the study you may have newly diagnosed Acute Myelocytic Leukemia with or without a genetic mutation or you have Multiple Myeloma or Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma, and your disease has worsened. The Phase 1b part of this study may last as long as you and your study doctor think you may benefit which could be up to approximately 31/2 years. How long you participate in this study depends on side effects you may have to the study drug. It also depends on how your cancer responds to the study drug. Therefore, you may remain in the study as long as you and your study doctor think you may benefit. However, you are free to stop taking part in this study at any time and for any reason.
Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable malignancy and accounts for 1 percentage (%) of all cancers and for 10% of all hematologic malignancies. Participants with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) will be included in this study, to evaluate the efficacy and safety of belantamab mafodotin (GSK2857916) monotherapy. Participants will be treated with belantamab mafodotin monotherapy until disease progression (PD) or unacceptable toxicity and will be followed for Progression Free Survival and Overall survival. The participants will be randomized to receive either frozen belantamab mafodotin at the dose of 2.5 milligram per kilogram (mg/kg) or 3.4 mg/kg administered Intravenously (IV). There will be an independent cohort of participants who will receive a lyophilized configuration of belantamab mafodotin. For participants who discontinued from the study other than Progressive disease (PD), disease evaluation will continue to be performed at 3-week intervals until confirmed PD, death, start of a new anticancer treatment, withdrawal of consent, or end of the study whichever occurs first.
This study seeks to examine the investigational use of the conditioning regimen (bendamustine, fludarabine, and rituximab) prior to haploidentical peripheral blood allogeneic stem cell transplantation with Post-Transplant Cyclophosphamide. The study will also test the investigational use of CD56-enriched Donor Lymphocyte Infusion to see if this treatment is safe, and whether or not it will help patients achieve better outcomes post-transplant, including reduced risk of Graft-Versus-Host Disease (GVHD), and preventing disease relapse.
Study CC-93269-MM-001 is an open-label, Phase 1, dose escalation (Part A and C) and expansion (Parts B and D), first-in-human clinical study of CC-93269 in subjects with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma.
This phase II trial studies how well daratumumab works in treating transplant-eligible patients with multiple myeloma. Daratumumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread.
This phase II trial studies how well abatacept, ixazomib citrate, and dexamethasone work in treating patients with multiple myeloma that is resistant to chemotherapy. Abatacept may block certain proteins that are present on multiple myeloma cells that have been shown to protect against chemotherapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as ixazomib citrate and dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving abatacept, ixazomib citrate, and dexamethasone may work better at treating patients with multiple myeloma resistant to chemotherapy.
