Active clinical trials for "Immune System Diseases"

This is a phase II study using risk and response-adapted therapy for low, intermediate and high risk classical Hodgkin lymphoma. Chemotherapy regimens will be based on risk group assignment. Low-risk and intermediate- risk patients will be treated with bendamustine, etoposide, Adriamycin® (doxorubicin), bleomycin, Oncovin® (vincristine), vinblastine, and prednisone (BEABOVP) chemotherapy. High-risk patients will receive Adcetris® (brentuximab vedotin), etoposide, prednisone and Adriamycin® (doxorubicin) (AEPA) and cyclophosphamide, Adcetris® (brentuximab vedotin), prednisone and Dacarbazine® (DTIC) (CAPDac) chemotherapy. Residual node radiotherapy will be given at the end of all chemotherapy only to involved nodes that do not have an adequate response (AR) after 2 cycles of therapy for all risk groups.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of LCAR-B38M chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells.

Clinical trial applying CURATE.AI, a Phenotypic Precision Medicine (PPM) platform, to Bortezomib, Thalidomide, Cyclophosphamide and Lenalidomide dosing in multiple myeloma patients to show improvement in response.

This trial studies how well rifaximin works in treating patients with monoclonal gammopathy. Antibiotics, such as rifaximin, may help to kill bacteria in the intestines and reduce the abnormal protein or cells in patients with monoclonal gammopathy.

This is a single centre randomised, placebo-controlled phase 2 study in which 96 children age 4 to 16 years with moderate to severe, longstanding allergic eczema will be enrolled.

In this protocol, the investigators hypothesize that the combination of intravenous busulfan and melphalan with carfilzomib will be an effective preparative regimen with acceptable toxicity for participants with multiple myeloma who are candidates for autologous stem cell transplantation. To test this hypothesis, the investigators designed a phase I/II trial combining IV busulfan 130 mg/m2 plus melphalan 140 mg combined with escalating doses of carfilzomib ranging from 20 mg/m2 to 45 mg/m2. These results will be compared with the center's historical controls of participants treated with melphalan, busulfan and bortezomib.

Smokers living with HIV represent a major health disparity population in the United States and the world more generally. Major contributing factors to the maintenance and relapse of smoking among smokers living with HIV include increased exposure to multiple stressors associated with HIV, which often exacerbates anxiety/depression. In a previous project, the feasibility, acceptability, and initial efficacy of a 9-session, cognitive-behavioral-based intervention to address smoking cessation by reducing anxiety and depression via specific emotional vulnerabilities (anxiety sensitivity, distress tolerance, and anhedonia) was tested against an enhanced standard of care in a pilot randomized controlled trial (NCT01393301). It was found that when compared to a brief enhanced treatment as usual control, patients in the intervention achieved higher short-term and long-term smoking abstinence rates. In this project, the investigators seek to test this same intervention in a fully powered, 3-arm efficacy/effectiveness trial. The goal of this study is to randomize 180 smokers across three sites to test the efficacy/effectiveness of the intervention at increasing point prevalence abstinence by reducing anxiety and depression at a 1-month follow-up (the end of treatment timepoint/ approximately 1-month post quit day) and a 6-month follow-up (approximately 6-months post quit day).

Primary objective is to assess the anti-tumor activity of single agent odronextamab as measured by the objective response rate (ORR) according to the Lugano Classification of response in malignant lymphoma (Cheson, 2014) and as assessed by independent central review in each of the following B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL) subgroups: In patients with follicular lymphoma (FL) grade 1-3a *1,2 In patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) *1,2 In patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) that has relapsed after or is refractory to a BTK inhibitor. This cohort will also include patients who have relapsed or have disease refractory to prior systemic therapy, or patients who have demonstrated intolerance to BTK inhibitor therapy, and who have progressed after other systemic therapy. In patients with marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) *1 In patients with other B-NHL subtypes *1 Secondary objectives are: To assess the anti-tumor activity of single agent odronextamab in each of 5 disease-specific cohorts, as measured by: ORR according to the Lugano Classification and as assessed by local investigator evaluation Complete response (CR) rate according to the Lugano Classification and as assessed local by local investigator evaluation and independent central review Progression-free survival (PFS)*3 Overall survival (OS) Duration of response (DOR)*3 Disease control rate (DCR)*3 To evaluate the safety and tolerability of odronextamab To assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of odronextamab To assess the immunogenicity of odronextamab To assess the effect of odronextamab on patient reported outcomes, including health-related quality of life (HRQL), as measured by the validated instruments European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30), Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Lymphoma (FACT-Lym), and EuroQoL 5 Dimensions 3 Levels (EQ-5D-3L) 1 that has relapsed after or is refractory to at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy 2 including an anti-CD20 antibody and an alkylating agent 3 according to Lugano Classification and as assessed by independent central review and local investigator evaluation

This is a Phase 1/2, multi-centre, single-arm, open-label, dose-escalation study that will evaluate the safety and efficacy of IV GSK2857916 in combination with PO pomalidomide and low-dose PO dexamethasone in subjects with relapsed and/or refractory MM.
