This study will be intented to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and engraftment efficacy after myeloablative preconditioning and transplantation of autologous CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells transduced with a lentiviral vector encoding the human βA-T87Q-globin gene in patients with transfusion-dependent (TDT) β-thalassemia.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of food on the amount of etavopivat in the bloodstream of healthy participants. Participants will take a single oral dose of etavopivat following a high-fat meal (i.e. fed) and on an empty stomach (i.e fasted) on two separate occasions.The study will last up to 50 days (including screening).
Observe long-term safety risk and long-term efficacy after intravenous infusion of BHC001 in TDT subjects.
Background: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited disorder of the blood. SCD causes red blood cells (RBCs) to die early. This can lead to a shortage of healthy cells. SCD and other blood disorders can be managed with drugs or cured with a bone marrow transplant. Researchers want to know how long RBCs survive in people with SCD and other blood disorders before and after treatment compared to those who had a bone marrow transplant. Objective: To learn how long RBCs survive in the body in people with SCD and other blood disorders compared to those whose disease was cured with a bone marrow transplant. Eligibility: People aged 18 years or older with SCD or another inherited blood disorder. People whose SCD or blood disorder was cured with a bone marrow transplant are also needed. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood and urine tests. Participants will have about 7 tablespoons of blood drawn. In the lab, this blood will be mixed with a vitamin called biotin. Biotin sticks to the outside of RBCs. This process is called "biotin labeling of RBCs." The next day, the participant s own biotin-labeled RBCs will be returned to their bloodstream. Participants will return regularly to have smaller blood samples (about 2 teaspoons) drawn. These samples will be tested to detect the percentage of cells that have biotin labels. These visits may be every 2 weeks, 4 weeks, or some other interval. Participants will continue this schedule for up to 20 weeks or until biotin can no longer be detected....
Transfusion Dependent Thalassemia (TDT) is an emerging global public health concern. Hemopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the only curative treatment. But its adoption is limited due to lack of HLA matched donor, experienced centers and high initial cost. So, researches are going on in search of an effective, safe, easily available treatment option. Use of fetal haemoglobin inducing agents shows promising effects in treatment of TDT patients. Thalidomide an immunomodulating and anti-angiogenic drug has been shown to induce γ-globin gene expression and increase the proliferation of erythroid cells. Furthermore Hydroxyurea (HU) is known to increase haemoglobin (Hb) by HbF induction and reduction of inflammation and hypercoagulability. Recent studies with combination of HU and Thalidomide have shown promising results in treatment of Thalassemia patients. However, most of those studies are retrospective or single arm nonrandomized trials & The study population includes both adult and children age group . So the effectiveness of combination therapy of Thalidomide and HU needs to be established through randomized trials. This single centered non blinded quasi randomized clinical trial will be conducted at the Department of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology in Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Bangladesh for one year of period. Thirty transfusion dependent thalassemia children of 3-18 years old will be included in each group. The objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness of combination of Thalidomide and Hydroxyurea in TDT children. It will play an important role in planning a cost effective and affordable treatment option for TDT children.This study will involve minimum physical risk to the patient. Written informed consent will be taken from parents or study subjects after brief explanation of the purpose and procedure. They will also be informed about the freedom to participate or not to participate at any time. Privacy and confidentiality will be safe guarded. History regarding age, sex, height, weight of these patients will be taken. Thorough physical examinations and laboratory investigations including CBC, Hb electrophoresis, serum Ferritin, serum creatinine, SGPT will be done. Data will be collected in a predesigned questionnaire and will be kept confidential. Statistical analysis will be done using the statistical software SPSS.
The goal of this open label, single-arm clinical study is to learn about the safety and efficacy of CS-101 in treating patients with β-thalassemia major anemia.
The main aim of this study is to collect real-world longitudinal data on participants with β-thalassemia treated with betibeglogene autotemcel (beti-cel) in the post marketing setting. To assess the long-term safety, including the risk of newly diagnosed malignancies, after treatment with beti-cel and evaluate the long-term effectiveness of treatment with beti-cel.
ENROL, the European Rare Blood Disorders Platform has been conceived in the core of ERN-EuroBloodNet as an umbrella for both new and already existing registries on Rare Hematological Diseases (RHDs). ENROL aims at avoiding fragmentation of data by promoting the standards for patient registries' interoperability released by the EU RD platform. ENROL's principle is to maximize public benefit from data on RHDs opened up through the platform with the only restriction needed to guarantee patient rights and confidentiality, in agreement with EU regulations for cross-border sharing of personal data. Accordingly, ENROL will map the EU-level demographics, survival rates, diagnosis methods, genetic information, main clinical manifestations, and treatments in order to obtain epidemiological figures and identify trial cohorts for basic and clinical research. To this aim, ENROL will connect and facilitate the upgrading of existing RHD registries, while promoting the building of new ones when / where lacking. Target-driven actions will be carried out in collaboration with EURORDIS for educating patients and families about the benefits of enrolment in such registries, including different cultural and linguistic strategies. The standardized collection and monitoring of disease-specific healthcare outcomes through the ENROL user-friendly platform will determine how specialized care is delivered, where are the gaps in diagnosis, care, or treatment and where best to allocate financial, technical, or human resources. Moreover, it will allow for promoting research, especially for those issues that remain unanswered or sub-optimally addressed by the scientific community; furthermore, it will allow promoting clinical trials for new drugs. ENROL will enable the generation of evidence for better healthcare for RHD patients in the EU as the ultimate goal. ENROL officially started on 1st June 2020 with a duration of 36 months. ENROL is co-funded by the Health Programme of the European Union under the call for proposals HP-PJ-2019 on Rare disease registries for the European Reference Networks. GA number 947670
This is a non-randomized, open-label, single-dose study. The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the treatment with lentiviral vector encoding βA-T87Q-globin gene transduced autologous hematopoietic stem cells transfusion in subjects with β-thalassemia major.
