Filter by:This study will evaluate the feasibility of a digital health coaching program for adults with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (R/R MM). One hundred adults with R/R MM will be enrolled at The University of Washington. Individuals who agree to take part in the study and sign an informed consent will be enrolled in a 3-month digital health coaching program. The program will provide weekly phone calls plus the delivery of learning materials to text or email. Questionnaires and data from a wrist-worn activity tracker will be collected. Outcomes include treatment and symptom experience, quality of life, financial burden, and how confident people feel to manage their health. Information about your condition and treatment will be collected, along with how often you use services like the emergency room, for care. This data will provide a better understanding of how a person experiences their R/R MM.
Human gene therapy products are designed to achieve therapeutic effect through genetic modifications of human cells using retroviral or lentiviral vectors, resulting in permanent or long-acting changes in the human body. With this genetic modification comes risk of undesirable adverse events. Due to this risk, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Center for Biologics Evaluation and research (CBER) require long-term follow-up (15 years) of participants that receive investigational gene therapy products that meet defined criteria. This protocol will provide a mechanism by which to appropriately monitor participants that have received a genetically modified cellular product on a St. Jude initiated study.
The iLTB is a proof-of-concept initiative for children with r/r hematological malignancies, in which available treatment options will be prioritized by actionable events in a harmonized and uniform setting across Europe by a team of biologists, bio-statisticians, bio-informaticians, disease experts, geneticists, flow-experts, clinical trial physicians and also the treating physician. The iLTB will discuss molecular (genetic lesions), immunophenotypic/surface antigen markers information and, if available, drug response profiles to prioritize these events taking into account the treatment history and treatment intention (bridging to hematopoietic stem cell transplanation/CAR-T or palliative) of each patient followed by a registry to monitor how often iLTB advice has been followed, which other therapy was chosen (off-label, compassionate use) and what the patient outcome is at an aggregated level. As such the iLTB is non-interventional as it mainly provides advice and registers data on patients discussed in the iLTB.
This trial will study how safely the tazemetostat works with other therapies in various hematological malignancies. Hematologic malignancies are cancers that most often begin in the bone marrow or lymph nodes where blood precursors are produced. They are often called blood cancers and fall into three categories: leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma. Tazemetostat has been found to be a safe and effective drug that works in patients with follicular lymphoma where the disease has come back after treatment (known as relapsed) and when other treatment no longer works (known as refractory). Combining tazemetostat with other treatments may work better in treating patients with hematological malignancies and may improve disease response and durability of response.
The rise of oral therapies in the management of cancers has considerably changed the patient care path. If the oral route is preferred by patients because it offers a better quality of life, it is not without impact for patients and the health professionals involved in their management in their care. Indeed, the use of the oral route shifts part of the responsibility for monitoring treatment towards the patient, thereby leading to compliance problems, drug interactions and the management of adverse effects.These risks can cause complications or compromise the effectiveness of treatment, and generate additional costs for the investigator's health system. The study proposes to involve Healthcare Facilities Pharmacist and the Dispensary Pharmacist with all other health professionals.First, the hospital pharmacist will operate before the initiation of an oral route to perform a clinical pharmaceutical analysis of drug prescriptions. Then after the primary prescription and finally during a follow-up consultation 3 months after the initiation of treatment. The hypothesis of the study is that the coordinated intervention of the hospital pharmacist and of the dispensary pharmacist would improve the tolerance of oral treatments by reducing the number of serious adverse effects found, as well as improve the, quality of life, patient and professional satisfaction
The haematological neoplasia relapse is the cause of higher mortality after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). When transplantation fails the most common therapeutic strategy is to increase the antitumor activity of the donor's immune system through the infusion of donor Lymphocytes (DLI). The use of DLI may limit the relapse, but may induce transplantation disease against the host (GvHD), in 40-60% of patients. With advances in transplantation procedures, the use of non-compatible (HLA-mismatched) haploidentical (aplo) donor cells has become feasible and is increasing. However, strategies for immune control of relapse after HSCT from haploidentical donor are hampered by the absence of prospective data that can guide treatment and limit the induction of GvHD in the setting of the HLA difference between the donor and the recipient. Cytokine-induced Killer Cells (CIK) are T lymphocytes from haploidentical donor expressing CD56 (e.g., double positive cells at CD3 / CD56). CIK are a product of advanced cell therapy (Advanced Therapeutic Medicinal Product, ATMP) for somatic cell therapy and have a reduced histocompatibility (MHC) complex: are cytotoxic, anti-tumor cells, possess the characteristics of both T cells and Natural Killer (NK) and show in vivo a very strong cytolytic activity against leukemia, but a low reactivity against the host. Therefore, this study has as its primary objective to investigate the safety of CIK cells deriving from the donor, especially in terms of the onset of GvHD, used as a treatment for relapse after transplantation with haploidentical stem cells. The study will allow to evaluate the possibility of using CIK cells, at the indicated dose combination (5x10 * 6 cells / kg, 5x10 * 6 and 10x10 * 6 cells / kg) as an effective and safe therapy in the context of haploidentical transplantation.
This is a window-of-opportunity trial to determine if atorvastatin given for 1 to 4 weeks at a dose of 80 milligrams per day (mg/day) is sufficient to decrease the level of conformational mutant tumor protein 53 (p53) in malignant diseases (solid tumor and relapsed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)).
Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a morbid disease which can only be cured with an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Approximately 50% of allotransplanted patients will relapse, with a median survival of 5 years. Better approaches to improve disease control at relapse, while decreasing toxicity, are urgently needed. Relapse after allogeneic transplant is a failure of the graft versus MM effect (GvMM). DLIs can be used to control disease following relapse, but the optimal dose, schedule of administration and drug association remain elusive, while the immunosuppression found in MM patients can compromise their effect. One reason for immunotherapy failure relates to the immunological environment: as much as myeloma cells depend on their microenvironment to survive and proliferate, the immunotherapeutic effect of allogeneic HSCT depends on both systemic and local immunological status to be efficacious. Immunomodulatory drugs such as Lenalidomide (Len) have been tried in various settings after allogeneic transplantation with the aim to reverse immunosuppression and stimulate the GvMM, but if and how Len influences a GvMM and thereby promotes an immunotherapeutic success remained uncharacterized. Therefore, a deeper understanding of the immunological environment in MM patients is needed in order to establish and / or restore a potent GvMM effect. This study proposes the powerful combination of the two following goals, one clinical and one biological : 1. Clinical: The investigators propose a two-step treatment using first Len in association with Dexamethasone (Dex), followed by Donor Leukocytes Infusions (DLIs) to offer an optimal disease control strategy in relapsed patients. The cytoreductive and immunomodulatory effects of Len is expected to induce a permissive immunological environment for the immunotherapeutic activity of DLIs to develop, while the association with Dex will lessen the risk of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). This treatment combination has the potential to further improve depth of myeloma response, delay myeloma progression and improve patient survival. 2. Biological: In an attempt to gain knowledge on how the GvMM behaves in MM patients post-relapse after having received a combined treatment of Len/Dex/DLIs, the investigators propose to characterize the immune environment of their bone marrow (BM) using both minimal residual disease (MRD) assessement by flow cytometry and an unbiased analysis of the transcriptome at various time points.
This is a multi-center, open-label trial to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and anti-cancer activity of oral administration of emavusertib (CA-4948) in adult patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) hematologic malignancies. Part A will evaluate the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of emavusertib as monotherapy (Part A1), and in combination with ibrutinib. In Protocol Version (v) 1.0 through v6.0, patients with Waldenström macroglobulinemia/ lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (WM/LPL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) were also enrolled at ibrutinib doses of 420 mg (Part A2). Enrollment into Parts A1 and A2 has been closed. Part B will comprise 2 cohorts to assess safety and efficacy of emavusertib in combination with ibrutinib in patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL).
Patients with relapsed/ refractory acute leukemia and relapsed/ refractory aggressive lymphoma harboring an activating genetic alteration (gene mutation, gene fusion) or drug-able biomarker / activated signal transduction pathway and resistant to any approved treatment modality will be eligible for this study. The investigators aim to combine DNA sequencing-based molecular profiling with an ex vivo high-throughput drug screening strategy. For the latter method, viable cells are obtained from the individual patient's lymphoma or leukemia in order to determine i)the expression of relevant therapeutic target molecules and ii)the ex vivo response of the patient's cancer cells to a panel of agents with anticancer activity. In addition, analysis of tumor stroma cells will provide information about the differential target expression and cellular sensitivity aiming at the evaluation of a therapeutic safety window. Thereby, biological material will have to be accessed within 4 weeks before onset of individualized treatment (real-time biopsy). Bioinformatic data-management based on a Bayesian statistical approach will support individualized treatment decisions in this controlled clinical approach.
