Active clinical trials for "Immune System Diseases"

The primary objective of this study is to compare the 24 month remission of different immunosuppressive therapies in the treatment of idiopathic membranous nephropathy (iMN)

This phase II trial studies the effect of brentuximab vedotin and nivolumab alone and in combination with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone in treating patients with untreated, stage I-IV primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma. Brentuximab vedotin is a monoclonal antibody, called brentuximab, linked to a toxic agent, called vedotin. Brentuximab is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of cancer cells, known as CD30 receptors, and delivers vedotin to kill them. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Rituximab is a type of antibody therapy, which targets and attaches to the CD20 protein found on the surface of blood cells with cancer and some healthy blood cells. Chemotherapy drugs, such as cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, or by stopping them from dividing. Prednisone is a steroid, a hormone (chemical messengers) with multiple roles, notably in the immune system and inflammation reduction. Steroids are poisonous to lymphocytes (white blood cells from which lymphomas develop). Giving brentuximab vedotin and nivolumab in combination with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone may help to control the disease and be a less harmful regimen than standard chemotherapy in patients with primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma.

This is an open-label, phase 1/2 study has the primary objective of decitabine-primed tandem CART 19/20 in patients with B-NHL who were confirmed as r/r B cell Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. A total of 19 to 33 patients are planned to be enrolled and receive decitabine-primed tandem CART 19/20 cell infusion. Phase 1 (9 to 18 cases) is dose escalation part, and phase 2 (10 to 15 cases) is expansion cohort part.

A randomized, crossover study to compare adherence, preference and acceptability of an over-encapsulated dual prevention pill (DPP capsule) containing oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and a combined oral contraceptive (COC) versus two separate tablets (PrEP and COC) among women at risk of HIV and unintended pregnancy in Johannesburg, South Africa

The primary objective of this study is to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and characterize the safety profile of TG-1801. As per protocol v3.0, ublituximab will be discontinued.

This phase I trial studies the side effects of isatuximab and to see how well it works in treating patients with high risk immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis (AL amyloidosis). Isatuximab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

This study is being conducted to assess the antiretroviral activity of a fixed-drug, single tablet, combination of Bictegravir 50mg/ Emtricitabine 200mg/ Tenofovir alafenamide 25mg (Biktarvy®) dosed twice daily in HIV-1 infected, ART-naïve patients with TB co-infection receiving a rifampicin-based tuberculosis (TB) treatment regimen. This study will assess the activity of Bictegravir and dolutegravir-containing ART regimens in patients with drug-susceptible TB through 48 weeks

This study is phase II, open label, clinical trial to determine the efficacy of Niraparib re-treatment with Bevacizumab of assessment progression-free survival(6 months PFS rate) with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer patients previously treated with a PARP inhibitor.

THE PURPOSE OF THE STUDY is to optimize the therapy of patients with primary B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL) by including monoclonal bispecific antibodies in post-induction treatment with simultaneous reduction of chemotherapy. QUESTIONS AND OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY: to determine the efficacy and feasibility of chemotherapy and immunotherapy combination in comparison with standard PCT in children and adolescents with newly diagnosed BCP-ALL; to determine the safety and toxicity of chemotherapy and immunotherapy combination in comparison with standard PCT in children and adolescents with newly diagnosed BCP-ALL; to determine the possibility of chemotherapy reducing when immunotherapy is included in the treatment regimen without loss of effectiveness; to determine the possibility of reducing the maintenance therapy duration to 1 year when immunotherapy is included in the treatment regimen without loss of effectiveness.

This is a prospective open-label, randomized, parallel arm clinical trial. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Cuvitru 20% subcutaneous immunoglobulin in patients with myasthenia gravis (MG). The secondary objective is to evaluate patient preferences and effects on quality of life when treating MG patients with SCIG. Exploratory objectives are to compare de novo administration starting SCIG directly with those starting with a loading dose of IVIG followed by SCIG administration. Patients over age 18 with moderate to severe MG with MGFA Class II-IV without contraindications to immunoglobulin will be considered for the study. All patients will be eligible to enter either arm of the study, Arm 1: 10% Gammagard IVIG followed by 20% Cuvitry SCIG and Arm 2: Cuvitru 20% SCIG alone.
