Filter by:The COVID-19 pandemic has had an outsized impact on individuals with underlying social and medical vulnerability, leading to increased rates of severe disease, hospitalization, and death in these groups. Participants with underlying immune compromise, such as those with multiple myeloma, represent one such group. The advent of vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 has significantly limited morbidity and mortality across all groups, but the effectiveness of vaccination in individuals who are less likely to mount sufficient antibody response is uncertain. For this reason, booster vaccines have been recommended for those with underlying immune compromise. However, several key gaps remain in our understanding of how to best protect these individuals. There is a dearth of real-world evidence about the effectiveness of vaccination and boosters in patients who are immunocompromised, and very little information specifically about the recently approved mRNA boosters. Additionally, rates of vaccination and booster uptake in the United States remain low. A rapid, decentralized method of ascertaining information related to booster vaccine response and adverse events related to vaccines and COVID-19 infection is critical not only to answer questions about the booster vaccines, but to develop an infrastructure for answering similar questions about future vaccines or other diseases.
In this clinical study, a single-center retrospective cohort study was used to explore the clinical characteristics and risk factors of patients with multiple myeloma myocardial amyloidosis. An exploratory study was conducted to compare the effects of various sublayer factors (M protein, electrocardiogram, echocardiography, CD138, chromosome abnormalities, etc.) on patients' survival. On this basis, a hierarchical diagnostic model (1-2-3-4) for patients with multiple myeloma complicated with myocardial amyloidosis was established based on the phenoomics of NMR and mass spectrometry, and the prognosis was evaluated simultaneously, in order to create an early, non-invasive, sensitive and quantitative diagnostic model for multiple myeloma complicated with myocardial amyloidosis, and lay a foundation for the early application of effective treatment.
This is a single-arm, open-label study evaluating the safety, tolerability and efficacy of Iberdomide (CC-220) in combination with Elotuzumab and Dexamethasone in patients with RRMM. The researchers hypothesize that the combination of Iberdomide and Elotuzumab will synergize to promote myeloma cell death, resulting in an overall response rate of at least 53%, with an acceptable safety profile. Patients will be enrolled in a 3+3 dose escalation cohort to evaluate the safety of this combination and to establish the MTD (maximum tolerated dose). The MTD will be the dose for the patients enrolled in dose expansion cohort. A total maximum of 37 patients will be recruited: maximum 18 patients will be recruited in the dose escalation phase, followed by an additional 19 patients in the dose expansion cohort for a total of 25 patients treated at the MTD.
This is a phase I clinical study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of C-4-29 in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma, and to obtain the maximum tolerated dose of C-4-29 and phase II Recommended dose.
This is a Phase 1 rolling 6 trial design evaluating safety of a novel BCMA Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) alone and of CAR T cells engineered to co-express BCMA CAR and a CD19 CAR in patients with relapsed / refractory Multiple Myeloma. The study will assess the feasibility of generating these Advanced Therapy Investigational Products (ATIMPs) and the safety of administering the CAR T cells (either BCMA alone or co-expressed with CD19) in patients with relapsed / refractory multiple myeloma.
With the emergence of new drugs, the short-term survival rate of multiple myeloma has been significantly increased. However, in clinical treatment, doctors found that different patients may present different clinical efficacy and adverse reactions when using standard treatment. Some studies have shown that gene and metabolic differences in patients with multiple myeloma may be an important factor affecting clinical efficacy. In this project, peripheral blood samples and bone marrow from patients with multiple myeloma will be studied by using the methods of genomics, proteomics, metabonomics and transcriptomics. It is expected to find biomarkers and genes related to clinical efficacy, adverse reactions, and blood concentration of bortezomib in peripheral blood samples. If the sample size is large enough, the project team expects to establish a prediction model for the efficacy and safety of bortezomib containing regimen for multiple myeloma patients through the above studies. Investigators hope that the evaluation system can provide a reference for clinical formulation of appropriate drug delivery scheme.
This study mainly evaluated the efficacy and safety of autologous stem cell transplantation for the treatment of AL amyloidosis, the role of induction and maintenance therapy in autologous stem cell transplantation, and the long-term efficacy and prognosis risk factors of autologous stem cell transplantation for the treatment of AL amyloidosis.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of treating patients with intermediate risk smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM) with combinational therapy with dexamethasone and lenalidomide (Rd) and patients with high risk SMM with combinational therapy with Rd and carfilzomib.
Radiotherapy is required to overcome pain and to evoke recalcification in multiple myeloma (MM) patients. Approximately 70% of all MM patients receive one or more radiotherapies in the course of their illness. The relief of pain is obtained in 75 - 100%. Recalcification is achieved in 40 - 50% of the irradiated bone destructions.There were a lot of randomized trials showed the same effect of single (SF) and multiple fractions (MF) in pain relief and recalcification for patients with painful bone metastases from solid tumors. The role of different palliative radiotherapeutic regimens for MM is not well established due to lack of clinical trials. Our prospective study analyzed the effect of two different radiotherapeutic regimens in the treatment of MM on pain relief, analgesics consumption and recalcification.
Dendritic cell therapy is a promising strategy for adjuvant cancer therapy in the setting of minimal residual disease (MRD) to fight off cancer relapse and/or progression. The investigators already performed a phase I safety study in leukemia patients that were in complete remission demonstrating the absence of side effects and feasibility of the therapy. Here, the investigators want to extend on this strategy by studying the clinical efficacy of autologous DC vaccination in patients with acute and chronic myeloid leukemia and myeloma patients. Effects of DC therapy on the immune reactivity towards leukemia cells as well as clinical parameters such molecular MRD monitoring, time to relapse (TTR), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival(OS) will be studied in vaccinated and non-vaccinated (control) patients. Patients will be vaccinated using their own dendritic cells electroporated with mRNA coding for the full-length Wilms' tumor antigen WT1.
