Active clinical trials for "Immune System Diseases"

This study aims to evaluate safety and efficacy of a combination of 4th generation chimeric antigen receptor gene-modified T cells targeting B cell surface molecules including CD19 and alternative CARTs as booster and consolidation treatment for patients with highly resistant B cell lymphomas, including primary mediastinal B cell lymphoma (PMBCL) and BCL involving central nervous system (CNS-BCL). Clinical response and development of a simplified and standardized lentiviral vector and cell production protocol will be investigated. This is a phase I/II trial enrolling patients from multiple clinical centers.

The purpose of this study is to identify the recommended Phase 2 regimen(s) (RP2R[s]) and schedule for the study treatment (Part 1), to characterize the safety of the RP2R(s) for the study treatment (Part 2) and to evaluate the anticancer activity of talquetamab + teclistamab in participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma and extramedullary disease (EMD) (Part 3).

This phase 2 trial studies the efficacy and safety of zanubrutinib plus rituximab followed by R-DHAOx (rituximab, dexamethasone, cytarabine and oxaliplatin) regimen then maintenance with zanubrutinib for newly-diagnosed Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL).

SIDEC - (Subcutaneous Immunoglobulin in De-novo CIDP) ia a study designed as a randomized, parallel study with an open-label extension phase. The aims are to compare the effect of SCIG and IVIG in 60 treatment-naïve CIDP patients, and to detect the lowest effective dosage for maintenance treatment.

This project will compare the effectiveness of an HIV-specific comprehensive wellness intervention designed to have broad appeal to smokers living with HIV to the effectiveness of standard care services that include referral to the National VA Quitline and SmokefreeVET texting program. Participants in both arms will have access to pharmacotherapy available through their Veterans Affairs (VA) healthcare providers.

The purpose of the ALPHA-2 study is to assess the safety, efficacy, and cell kinetics of ALLO-501A in adults with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma after a lymphodepletion regimen comprising fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and ALLO-647

BTK inhibition and checkpoint blockade are promising classes of therapy for central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma and have demonstrated efficacy with acceptable toxicity. A multidrug approach may carry a higher chance of durable efficacy in this aggressive disease that carries significant morbidity and mortality. Given the poor outcomes and limited options for patients who are not candidates for high-dose methotrexate, the investigators seek to evaluate the combination in this patient population. 08/30/2022: The study was originally designed for those with primary and secondary central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma. However, the first three patients who were enrolled all had secondary CNS lymphoma and most had germinal center phenotype disease with double hit phenotypes. In these three patients, two dose limiting toxicities were seen including 1 patient with grade 4 neutropenia at the time of disease progression and one with pneumonia in the setting of disease progression and worsening of existing heart disease. The third patient came off for clinical progression within cycle 1. Given the lack of response in patients with secondary CNS lymphomas, who do not exhibit the same biology as primary CNS lymphoma patients, Amendment 3 updates the study to only include patients with primary CNS lymphomas.

The French Public Health Council recommended pneumococcal vaccination combined strategy for all immunocompromised patients in 2012. This strategy consisted in conjugated 13-valent pneumococcal injection followed 2 months later by polysaccharide 23-valent vaccine injection. General practitioners are usually in charge of this vaccination. Conjugated pneumococcal vaccine enhances the immunogenicity of the polysaccharide vaccine. Acute leukemia and lymphoma are treated with multiple courses of chemotherapy, impairing the immune system and potentially the response to vaccination. These patients are more at risk for developing pneumococcal invasive diseases than the general population. However, efficacy of pneumococcal vaccination is poorly documented in this setting. We assume that 70% of the patients are non-responders to vaccination, according to their anti-pneumococcal immunoglobulin G titers and the opsonophagocytic activity. To assess the immunogenicity of the pneumococcal vaccination combined strategy in adult population of acute leukemia and lymphoma, the investigator will measure anti-pneumococcal serotype-specific immunoglobulin G titers and opsonophagocytic activity at different time-points after completion of the combined vaccine strategy. The primary objective is to assess the immunogenicity of pneumococcal vaccination combined strategy at 3 months after the 13-valent pneumococcal injection (corresponding to 1 month after the end of the combined strategy) using immunoglobulin G titers and opsonophagocytic activity. At different time points (day 0, 1 month after the 13-valent pneumococcal injection, the day of the injection of the polysaccharide 23-valent vaccine, one month after the injection of the polysaccharide 23-valent vaccine, 3-6 months after the polysaccharide 23-valent vaccine,9-12 months after the polysaccharide 23-valent vaccine), the immunological response to vaccination will be monitored using specific-serotype immunoglobulin G titers, opsonophagocytic activity, and total anti-pneumococcal Immunoglobulin. The investigator will determine predictive factors of non-response to vaccination by comparing demographic data, biological data and treatment received by both acute myeloblastic leukemia and lymphoma patients. The tolerance and safety of the vaccination strategy will also be assessed in this specific hematological population.

The potency of immune checkpoint blockade is limited in most solid malignancies, one possible reason for which is tumor microenvironment. Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) as a epigenetic target for cancer therapy has attracted significant interest. The combination of EZH2 inhibitors and programmed death-1 ligands/ transforming growth factor-β (PD-L1/TGFβ) blockade may enhance the efficiency of immunotherapy.The primary objective of this study in phase Ⅰstage is to assess the safety, feasibility of EZH2 inhibitor SHR2554 in combination with anti-PD-L1/TGFβ antibody SHR1701 in advanced pretreated solid tumors and b-cell lymphomas. The phase Ⅱ stage of this study is to primarily evaluate the efficacy of SHR2554 plus SHR1701 and the epigenetic modulating effect of SHR2554.

This phase II trial studies how well obinutuzumab, ibrutinib, and venetoclax work in treating patients with previously untreated stage II-IV follicular lymphoma. Immunotherapy with obinutuzumab may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Ibrutinib and venetoclax may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving obinutuzumab, ibrutinib, and venetoclax together may work better in treating follicular lymphoma compared to each drug alone.
