Active clinical trials for "Immune System Diseases"

This protocol will allow ponatinib with refractory Chronic Myeloid Leukemia or Ph+ Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

The participants of this study would have relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma. Follicular lymphoma is a type of blood cancer. It is referred to as 'relapsed' when the disease has come back after treatment and 'refractory' when treatment no longer works. Stage 1 of this trial will study the safety and the level that adverse effects of each of the study drug combinations can be tolerated (known as tolerability). It is also designed to establish a recommended study drug dosage for stage 2 and 3. Stage 2 and 3 will evaluate and compare how long participants live without their disease getting worse when receiving the study drug in combination with other drug treatment versus the placebo (dummy drug) in combination with other drug treatment.

Oral glucocorticoids are currently the treatment of choice for allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA). They not only suppress the immune hyperfunction but are also anti-inflammatory. Unfortunately, numerous toxicities and adverse effects have been attributed to glucocorticoids related to both the average dose and cumulative duration of use. Deflazacort is a oxazoline steroid with demonstrated anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressant effects. The novel structural characteristic of deflazacort is associated with substantial lack of sodium-retaining activity, lower interference with carbohydrate metabolism and calcium metabolism in comparison with older glucocorticoids such as prednisolone. The investigators hypothesize that the occurrence of side-effects, primarily weight gain will be lower with deflazacort. In this study, the investigators will compare the safety and efficacy of deflazacort in the treatment of acute-stage ABPA complicating asthma.

This is a phase II, single center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, study in patients with a diagnosis of anti-AchR antibody positive myasthenia gravis.

A multi-center, open-label, randomized, phase Ib study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of HQP1351 and to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of HQP1351 in subjects with CML chronic phase (CP), accelerated phase (AP), or blast phase (BP) or with Ph+ ALL, who have experienced resistance or intolerance to at least two tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) or in subjects with Ph+ B-cell precursor (BCP) ALL or lymphoid blast phase CML (CML LBP), who have experienced resistance or intolerance to at least one second or later generation TKI.

This is a multi-center, open-label clinical study with separate Dose Escalation and Expansion Phases to assess preliminary safety, tolerability, and efficacy of ATG-019, a dual inhibitor of PAK4 and NAMPT, alone or co-administered with starting dose of 500 mg niacin ER in patients with advanced solid tumors or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL).

Prospective double-blinded placebo-controlled study, among adult patients suffering from moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD), insufficiently responsive to topical and systemic treatment. In the first group all patients will receive 4 fecal microbial transplantations (FMTs) from healthy donors each 2 weeks apart. In the second group all patients will receive 4 placebo transplantations each 2 weeks apart. Patients will be allowed to continue with their baseline medical topical treatment, including moisturizers and glucocorticoids, during the study period, but no new therapy should be commenced. The patients of the second group, who received the placebo treatment will have the possibility to enter an open label phase in which they will receive 4 fecal microbial transplantations (FMTs) from healthy donors each 2 weeks apart. The severity of AD and the fecal microbiome profile will be evaluated by the Scoring Atopic Dermatitis Score (SCORAD score), Investigator Global Assessment scale for Atopic Dermatitis (IGA) and the weekly use of topical corticosteroids, at the beginning of the study, before every FMT, and 1-6 months after the last FMT.

This study involved patients that have a cancer called diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), NK and T cell lymphomas (NK/TL) or classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) (hereafter these 3 diseases will be referred to as lymphoma). Patients lymphoma has come back or not gone away after treatment. Because there is no standard treatment for the patients cancer at this time or because the currently used treatments do not work fully in all cases, the patients are being asked to volunteer in this research study. In this study the investigators want to test a type of T cell made from a normal donor. The T cells the investigators will use are called Epstein Barr virus (EBV) specific T cells (EBVSTs) and are cells that the investigators have trained in the laboratory to recognize a EBV which is the virus that causes mono or kissing disease. Some patients with lymphoma have EBV in their cancer cells. Researchers have given T cell lines from normal donor EBVSTs to lymphoma patients who have EBV in their lymphoma cells and have seen responses in about half the patients. The cells have have been generated and are frozen in a bank. The cells are called "allogeneic" (meaning the donor is not related to the patient). CD30.CAR in EBV-specific T cells (called allogeneic CD30.CAR-EBVST) from the blood of healthy donors. The investigators are giving the cells to patients with lymphoma cells that express CD30. If the lymphoma cells also express EBV there may be some benefit from targeting both proteins. The purpose of this study is to find out the highest safe dose of allogeneic CD30.CAR-EBVST cells given following chemotherapy and used to treat lymphoma. The investigators will learn the side effects of CD30.CAR-EBVST cells in patients and see whether this therapy may help lymphoma patients

This is a phase II, double blind study with ZEP-3NA 0.1% or 1% vs. vehicle-control in subjects with mild to moderate Atopic Dermatitis. The IP (Investigational Product) will be administered topically twice daily for 4 weeks in the double blind phase. patients that will reach the primary endpoint will have the opportunity for additional to two weeks of open label treatment with ZEP-3Na 1%. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of two concentrations of ZEP-3NA compared to vehicle-control.

Open label phase 2 investigational study of efficacy and safety of apremilast 30 mg BID in chronic atopic dermatitis when added to the FDA approved treatment dupilumab for atopic dermatitis that is not providing adequate clinical responses.
