This study is a single-center, treatment protocol with 4 possible preparative regimens, designed to validate the process of umbilical cord blood stem cell transplantation at our institution.
This is a treatment guideline for an unrelated umbilical cord blood transplant (UCBT) using a myeloablative preparative regimen for the treatment of hematological diseases, including, but not limited to acute leukemias. The myeloablative preparative regimen will consist of cyclophosphamide (CY), fludarabine (FLU) and fractionated total body irradiation (TBI).
This study evaluates the risks and experience of blood clots and bleeding in patients with blood cancers. While it is standard of care to use medications to reduce the risk of blood clots in hospitalized individuals, some patients with blood cancers have low platelet counts that can increase the concern for bleeding complications associated with these medications. At this time, the optimal management strategies for blood clots are not well known for patients with blood cancers. This pilot study evaluates additional information that could help doctors know which patients are at highest risk for blood clots.
The aim of this study is to assess the feasibility, safety and efficacy of universal CAR T cells targeting multiple myeloma. Another goal of the study is to learn more about the persistence and function of the universal CAR T cells in the body.
The presence of minimal residual disease (MRD) is an important prognostic factor for multiple myeloma, while M-protein is a widely accepted biomarker used for multiple myeloma (MM) diagnose. Detecting MRD by monitoring M-protein using mass spectrometry (MS) is promising due to its high analytical sensitivity. To evaluate the correlation between MS-MRD and overall disease burden, over 60 patients with 500+ samples were identified for this study. The M-protein sequence and the patient-specific M-protein peptides of each patient were obtained by de novo protein sequencing platform using the diagnostic serum (> 30g/L). The follow- up ...
The clinical trial was designed as a single-arm, open-label clinical study, with the main purpose of exploring the safety, pharmacokinetics, and best recommended dose (RP2D) of the UTAA17 injection in the treatment of relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (r/r MM) subjects, and also the efficacy will be observed. Eligible subjects will accept the infusion of UTAA17 injection after pretreatment, and their blood will be collected before and after infusion for evaluation of pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity and safety. This study plans to evaluate efficacy using the revised Evaluation of Efficacy in multiple myeloma -IMWG criteria ...
Chemokine receptor CXCR4 is normally expressed on T-lymphocytes, B-lymphocytes, monocytes, macrophages, neutrophils and eosinophils as well as hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC) in the bone marrow. 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT represents a promising method for the in vivo assessment of the CXCR4 expression status in cancer patients, especially in hematologic malignancies. This prospective study is going to investigate whether metabolic characterization by 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT may be superior for diagnosis, risk stratification, and the prognostic evaluation in lymphoproliferative diseases.
This phase I trial finds out the best dose and side effects of venetoclax and tocilizumab in treating patients with t(11;14) multiple myeloma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Tocilizumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Tocilizumab is used to treat side effects from immune therapy in patients with myeloma. Giving venetoclax and tocilizumab may kill more cancer cells.
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of venetoclax in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone, daratumumab and dexamethasone, or daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone in treating patients with multiple myeloma. Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Lenalidomide is a drug that is similar to thalidomide, and is used to treat multiple myeloma and certain types of anemia. Lenalidomide belongs to the family of drugs called angiogenesis inhibitors. ...
This is a Phase 1, open-label, single center study of short-course oral venetoclax therapy prior to non-myeloablative conditioning with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide in subjects with haematological malignancies who are planned for allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT). The primary study objective is to determine the safety and maximum tolerated dose of venetoclax when used in combination with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide conditioning. Secondary objectives were to evaluate the transplant outcomes and donor/recipient engraftment of this regimen.
