Filter by:This study is a prospective, single center phase II clinical trial in which patients with Severe Aplastic Anemia (SAA) ) will receive a haploidentical transplantation. The purpose of this study is to learn more about newer methods of transplanting blood forming cells donated by a family member that is not fully matched to the patient. This includes studying the effects of the chemotherapy, radiation, the transplanted cell product and additional white blood cell (lymphocyte) infusions on the patient's body, disease and overall survival. The primary objective is to assess the rate of engraftment at 30 days and overall survival (OS) and event free survival (EFS) at 1 year post-hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Primary Objectives - To estimate the rate of engraftment at 30 days after TCR αβ+ T-cell-depleted graft infusion in patients receiving a single dose of post graft infusion cyclophosphamide. - To estimate the overall survival and event free survival at 1-year post transplantation. Secondary Objectives - To calculate the incidence of acute and chronic GVHD after HCT. - To calculate the rate of secondary graft rejection at 1-year post transplantation - To calculate the cumulative incidence of viral reactivation (CMV, EBV and adenovirus). - To describe the immune reconstitution after TCR αβ+ T-cell-depleted graft infusion at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and 1 year. Exploratory Objectives - To longitudinally assess the phenotype and epigenetic profile of T-cells in SAA patients receiving HCT for SAA. - To assess the phenotype and epigenetic profile of T-cells in DLI administered to SAA patients post HCT. - To longitudinally assess CD8 T cell differentiation status in SAA patients using an epigenetic atlas of human CD8 T cell differentiation. - To examine the effector functions and proliferative capacity of CD8 T cells isolated from SAA patients before and after DLI. - Quantify donor derived Treg cells at different time points in patients received HCT. - Determine Treg activation status at different stages after HCT. - Are specific features of the DLI product associated with particular immune repertoire profiles post-transplant? - How does the diversity and functional profile of the DLI product alter the response to pathogens in the recipient? - Do baseline features of the recipient's innate and adaptive immune cells correlate with post-transplant immune repertoires and response profiles?
This is an open label, prospective Pilot interventional study will investigate the safety and efficacy of Romiplostim, thrombopoietin (TPO) mimetic, in children (ages: 0 to 21 years) with broad scope of bone marrow failure disorders including acquired and inherited conditions as a first line of therapy along with standard of care.
The goal of this clinical research study is to determine whether it is safe and practical to give CK0801 (a Cord blood-derived T-regulatory cell product) to patients with bone marrow failure syndrome. Researchers want to determine the highest possible dose that is safe to be given. Researchers also want to learn if CK0801 may improve the symptoms of bone marrow failure syndrome. Patients enrolled in this study will all have been diagnosed with treatment refractory bone marrow failure syndrome (which includes aplastic anemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or myelofibrosis). Participants eligible to participate in this study are unable or unwilling to be treated with standard therapy or have failed standard therapy.
Patients who are positive of PNH-type cells are followed up for the percentage of PNH-type cells regularly for examining how it change.
This is a phase II trial using a non-myeloablative cyclophosphamide/ fludarabine/total body irradiation (TBI) preparative regimen with modifications based on factors including diagnosis, disease status, and prior treatment. Single or double unit selected according to current University of Minnesota umbilical cord blood graft selection algorithm.
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.
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria is an acquired chronic hemolytic anemia,this study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Levamisole combined with cyclosporine A in patients with Subclinical Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria and PNH in the setting of another bone marrow failure syndromes
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria is an acquired chronic hemolytic anemia,this study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Levamisole combined with cyclosporine A in patients with classic paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria.
Background: - Moderate aplastic anemia is a blood disease which may require frequent blood and platelet transfusions. Sometimes patients with this disease can be treated with immunosuppressive drugs. Not all patients respond and not all patients are suitable for this treatment. - Thrombopoietin (TPO) is a protein made by the body. The bone marrow needs TPO to produce platelets. TPO may also be able to stimulate bone marrow stem cells to produce red cells and white cells. However, TPO cannot be given by mouth. This has led researchers to develop the drug eltrombopag, which acts in the same way and can be given by mouth. Eltrombopag has been shown to safely increase platelet numbers in healthy volunteers and in patients with other chronic blood diseases, including severe aplastic anemia. Researchers are interested in looking at whether eltrombopag can be given to people with moderate aplastic anemia and significantly low blood cell counts. Objectives: - To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of eltrombopag in people with moderate aplastic anemia or patients with bone marrow failure and unilineage cytopenia who need treatment for significantly low blood cell counts. Eligibility: - People at least 2 years of age who have moderate aplastic anemia or bone marrow failure and unilineage cytopenia,and significantly low blood cell counts. Design: - Patients will be screened with a physical examination, medical history, blood tests, a bone marrow biopsy, and an eye exam. - Patients will receive eltrombopag by mouth once a day. - Patients will have weekly blood tests to monitor the effectiveness of the treatment and adjust the dose in response to possible side effects. - Patients may continue to take eltrombopag if their platelet count or hemoglobin increases, their requirement for platelet or blood transfusion decreases after 16 to 20 weeks of treatment, and there have been no serious side effects. Access to the drug will continue until the study is closed. Patients will be asked to return for a follow-up visit 6 months after the last dose of medication.
Bone marrow failure syndromes (BMFS) are rare disorders characterized by dysfunctional hematopoietic stem cells, which give rise to all red and white blood cells. The deficiency of blood cells, or cytopenia, caused by this malfunction leads to an assortment of diseases and disorders, all of which are characterized as BMFS. Because these diseases are rare, conducting research on them is difficult, and standards of treatment for most BMFS have yet to be developed. This study will collect clinical and laboratory data from people with BMFS to identify the characteristics and biological markers associated with these diseases over time. This information will assist doctors and researchers to develop better therapies and diagnostic tests that will help improve the management of BMFS and cytopenias.
