Active clinical trials for "Immune System Diseases"

This phase I-II trial is intented to demonstrate tolerability (i.e. absence of severe non-hematological toxicity) and efficacy of intended intervention with repeated doses of Voraxaze, in addition to leucovorin (LV), in patients with renal impairment or renal failure during previous HD-MTX therapy. Patients will receive up to 6 cycles of HD-MTX treatment with 14 days between cycles (a maximum delay of 28 days is permitted in order to allow time for a patient to recover from the previous cycle).

This multi-center clinical study will evaluate the efficacy of Rituximab maintenance treatment of newly diagnosed follicular lymphoma after induction therapy of BR, RCHOP or R2.

This study will combine a standard, pediatric-inspired, chemotherapy regimen with the tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) Dasatinib and Ponatinib to treat adults with Philadelphia Chromosome-Positive Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. There are two age groups/cohorts: participants aged 18 to 59 years participants aged 60 years and older One tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), either Dasatinib or Ponatinib, will be administered in each of the respective chemotherapy cycles. The TKI (either Dasatinib or Ponatinib) administered in a given cycle of chemotherapy will be dictated by the given cycle's standard chemotherapy, in order to minimize overlapping side effects of the chemotherapy and TKI. The dosages of the standard chemotherapy agents, as well as the tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs)--Dasatinib and Ponatinib--have been adjusted for each age group to allow continuous administration of these TKIs.

It is an open-label, multicenter, phase II, single arm trial to Evaluate Activity and Safety of Daratumumab in combination with Bortezomib and Dexamethasone in patients about 28 patients with Relapsed or Refractory Plasmablastic lymphoma.

Some patients develop "Post-acute COVID-19 syndrome," in which they experience persistent symptoms after recovering from the acute phase of COVID-19 infection. This syndrome may be more significant in patients with systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases (SARDs) who have been suffering from several symptoms associated to SARDs, such as myalgia, fatigue, and general pains. The transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) technique has been frequent, for example, to relieve fatigue and general pains in general population. However, to date, there are no studies evaluating this technique in ARD patients with post-acute COVID-19; therefore, the main objective of the opened study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the application of acute tDCS in ARD patients with post-acute COVID-19.

A French multicenter randomised and placebo-controlled study recruiting patients who present neurovascular involvement related to GCA (> 60 years) with symptomatic (stroke) or asymptomatic forms. The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of tocilizumab to induce complete remission of GCA with cerebrovascular involvement (clinical and biological) and absence of clinical and MRI ischemic stroke recurrence at 24 weeks.

Diabetic kidney disease remains the leading cause of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), rising in frequency in parallel with the epidemic of diabetes worldwide. The estimated lifetime risk of kidney disease in persons with type 1 diabetes (T1D) has been reported to be as high as 50-70%, although risk may be lower in excellent care environments. Two previous studies have suggested that a generic drug used to lower fats in blood (fenofibrate) may protect the kidney from damage due to diabetes. These data, however, were obtained among people with type 2 diabetes with clinical characteristics optimized for cardiovascular studies. Thus, a clinical trial specifically designed to evaluate the effects on the kidney is required to firmly show that this drug can prevent kidney damage in T1D. The goals of the present pilot study are to demonstrate the feasibility of such trial, gather essential information for designing and planning this study, and generate preliminary data. To this end, 40 participants with T1D and early-to-moderate diabetic kidney disease (DKD), at high risk of ESKD, will be enrolled at two clinical sites and assigned in a 1:1 ratio to treatment with fenofibrate or placebo for 18 months. Kidney function will be measured at the beginning and at the end of the study to evaluate the effect of fenofibrate.

This prospective, randomized, controlled, multi-center clinical trial will evaluate the effect and security of steroids therapy for patients of IgA nephropathy with crescents.

This phase III trial aims to compare the efficacy and safety of MIL62 combined lenalidomide and lenalidomide alone to treat patient diagnosed with Follicular Lymphoma (FL) and refractory to rituximab. The study randomized patients with a 1:1 ratio to receive either MIL62 plus lenalidomide or lenalidomide.
