Active clinical trials for "Immune System Diseases"

A non randomized, unblinded, open label phase 2 study to investigate the efficacy of pembrolizumab in patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with PD-L1 genetic alterations

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of CC-92480 in combination with standard treatments.

The primary purpose of this study is to test whether CD22-CAR T cells can be successfully made from immune cells collected from adults with relapsed/refractory B-cell malignancies (leukemia and lymphoma).

The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate that dupilumab is superior to placebo in achieving sustained remission off oral corticosteroids (OCS) in patients with bullous pemphigoid (BP). The secondary objectives of the study are: To evaluate the OCS-sparing effects of dupilumab in patients with BP To evaluate the effect of dupilumab on itch in patients with BP To evaluate the effects of dupilumab on health-related quality of life measures in patients with BP To evaluate the effect of dupilumab in circulating BP180 and BP230 autoantibody titers To assess the safety and tolerability of dupilumab administered to patients with BP To characterize the trough concentrations of functional dupilumab over time following administration of dupilumab in patients with BP To assess the immunogenicity of dupilumab in patients with BP over time

This is a single-arm, open-label, dose escalation, phase I study, aiming to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Autologous Humanized Anti-CD19 and Anti-CD20 Dual Specific Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-cells in patient with relapsed or refractory diffuse B cell lymphoma.

Background: Most people with hairy cell leukemia have a BRAF gene mutation. They can be treated with BRAF inhibitors, drugs that target this mutation. For people who do not have this mutation, BRAF inhibitors are not a treatment option. We found that in hairy cell leukemia, when BRAF is not mutated, the MEK gene frequently is. Binimetinib is a MEK inhibitor which targets MEK. It is important to determine if this drug can be a good treatment option in those who cannot benefit treatment with BRAF inhibitors. Objective: To see if binimetinib is an effective treatment for hairy cell leukemia that does not have a BRAF mutation. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with hairy cell leukemia without a mutation in the BRAF gene and whose disease either did not respond to treatment or came back after treatment Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood and urine tests Lung and heart tests Eye exam Bone marrow biopsy: A needle will be injected through the participant s skin into the bone to remove a sample of marrow. CT or MRI scan: Participants will lie in a machine that takes pictures of the body. They might receive a contrast agent by vein. Before they start treatment, participants will have an abdominal ultrasound, pulmonary function tests, and exercise stress tests. Participants will take binimetinib by mouth twice daily in 28-day cycles. They will keep a medication diary. Participants will have at least one visit before every cycle. Visits will include repeats of some screening tests. Participants may continue treatment as long as their disease does not get worse and they do not have bad side effects. About a month after their last dose of treatment, participants will have a follow-up visit. They will then have visits once a year. ...

A phase 2 open label study to evaluate safety and activity of Rituximab(HLX01) in combination with Pegylated interferon α-2b in patients with newly diagnosed advanced indolent B-cell lymphoma.

This is a global Phase 2, open-label, single-arm, multicohort, multicenter study to evaluate efficacy and safety of JCAR017 in adult subjects with r/r FL or MZL. The study will be conducted in compliance with the International Council on Harmonisation (ICH) of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use/Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and applicable regulatory requirements. This study is divided into three periods: Pretreatment, which consists of screening assessments, leukapheresis and the Pretreatment evaluation; Treatment, which starts with the administration of lymphodepleting (LD) chemotherapy and continues through JCAR017 administration at Day 1 with follow-up through Day 29; Posttreatment, which includes follow-up assessments for disease status and safety for 5 years.

Mepolizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody (IgG1, kappa) that blocks interleukin- 5 (IL-5) thus inhibits production and survival of eosinophils. The aim of this phase 4, open-label, single-arm study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Mepolizumab 100 mg SC administered every 4 weeks in Indian participants aged 18 years or above with severe eosinophilic asthma. After the first dose of mepolizumab, participants will receive 5 more doses of mepolizumab at 4 weekly intervals. Following the last dose of mepolizumab, the end of the study Visit will occur 4 weeks later. During the treatment period, OCS use and dose adjustment in participants will be as per the investigator's discretion and clinical practice.

For marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) Rituximab in combination with conventional chemotherapy is widely used for those patients who fail local therapy or do not qualify for such. Depending on the MZL subtype Rituximab/chemotherapy is able to induce in part long remissions, but does not prevent relapse later on. In addition, chemotherapy associated toxicity is often problematic in MZL patients, who are mostly of advanced age. Thus, chemotherapy-free approaches are highly attractive for this patient group. Rituximab single agent is a widely used chemotherapy-free approach in MZL, but was significantly inferior compared to Rituximab/chlorambucil in a large randomized prospective clinical trial in treatment naïve MZL with a CR rate of 55.8% vs. 78.8%, respectively (P < 0.001). Thus, it is the major aim to develop chemotherapy-free approaches for MZL, which approach or surpass efficacy of rituximab/chemotherapy combinations, but avoid chemotherapy associated toxicities. Checkpoint inhibitors such as Pembrolizumab have revolutionized cancer treatment and have also shown first encouraging results in Non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Based on these observations it is the aim of this study to test the toxicity and efficacy of Pembrolizumab in combination with the anti-CD20 antibody Rituximab in patients with newly diagnosed or relapsed MZL in need of treatment, who are not eligible or failed local therapy, following the assumption that this novel chemotherapy-free combination is significantly more efficient than Rituximab single agent therapy and at least as efficient as rituximab/chemotherapy, but avoids chemotherapy-related toxicity.
