Active clinical trials for "Anemia"

Cancer-related anemia (CRA) is one of the common accompanying diseases of malignant tumors. In 2019, a cross-sectional survey on the anemia status of 7324 malignant tumor patients in 97 hospitals in China found that the incidence of CRA was about 49.24%. 92.84% of the patients have not been given enough attention and effective treatment. According to the European Oncological Anemia Survey, CRA has the highest incidence in leukemia patients, followed by lymphoma/myeloma. CRA not only leads to a decline in the quality of life of patients, but also reduces the sensitivity to radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and also causes hypoxia in tumor tissue, which affects the prognosis of patients as an independent factor. At present, the treatment of CRA mainly includes blood transfusion therapy, erythropoiesis-stimulating agent (ESA) therapy, iron supplementation, etc. Conventional oral iron has low bioavailability and strong gastrointestinal irritation. Although intravenous iron can quickly replenish iron, excessive iron supplementation is prone to iron overload. Less acceptable. Shengxuening Tablets are derived from silkworm excrement. The main components of iron chlorophyllin and chlorophyll derivatives are very similar in structure to heme, and can be directly absorbed by small intestinal mucosal cells, effectively supplementing the iron elements required in the process of hematopoiesis. The investigators found that Shengxuening Tablets can increase the number of peripheral blood cells in mouse models of myelosuppression, improve bone marrow morphology, reverse the decrease in body weight and spleen index, and increase the levels of serum erythropoietin and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor . Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR and Western blot analysis showed increased expression levels of stem cell factor (SCF), JAK2 and STAT3 in the liver. These results indicated that Shengxuening Tablets promoted the recovery of hematopoietic function in myelosuppressive models by increasing the secretion of hematopoietic factors and activating the JAK2/STAT3 pathway. Therefore, in order to further confirm the preventive effect, effectiveness and safety of Shengxuening Tablets in the treatment of anemia in patients with hematological tumors complicated with anemia, this clinical trial was designed.

The purpose of this study is to find out whether isatuximab is an effective treatment for people who developed immune cytopenias/ICs after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant/allo-HCT.

This phase II trial tests how well canakinumab works to prevent progression to cancer in patients with clonal cytopenias of unknown significance (CCUS). CCUS is a blood condition defined by a decrease in blood cells. Blood cells are composed of either red blood cells, white blood cells, or platelets. In patients with CCUS, blood counts have been low for a long period of time. Patients with CCUS also have a mutation in one of the genes that are responsible for helping blood cells develop. The combination of genetic mutations and low blood cell counts puts patients with CCUS at a higher risk to develop blood cancers in the future. This transformation from low blood cell counts to cancer may be caused by inflammation in the body. Canakinumab is a monoclonal antibody that may block inflammation in the body by targeting a specific antibody called the anti-human interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta).

Severe aplastic anemia is a rare and serious form of bone marrow failure related to an immune-mediated mechanism that results in severe pancytopenia and high risk for infections and bleeding. Patients with matched sibling donors for transplantation have a 80-90% chance of survival; however, a response rate with just immunosuppression for those patients lacking suitable HLA-matched related siblings is only 60%. With immunosuppression, only 1/3 of patients are cured, 1/3 are dependent on long term immunosuppression, and the other 1/3 relapse or develop a clonal disorder. Recent studies have shown that using a haploidentical donor for transplantation has good response rates and significantly lower rates of acute and chronic GVHD.

The primary objectives of this prospective study of hydroxyurea for children with sickle cell anemia are 1) Develop and prospectively evaluate a population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamics model to predict the maximum tolerated dose (MTD); 2) Identify urine biomarkers of hydroxyurea adherence using a novel metabolomics approach; 3) Identify pharmacogenomics modifiers of hydroxyurea MTD; and 4) Longitudinal monitoring of the effect of hydroxyurea upon organ function and quality of life.

This is a Phase II study of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT) using a myeloablative preparative regimen (of either total body irradiation (TBI); or, fludarabine/busulfan for patients unable to receive further radiation). followed by a post-transplant graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis regimen of post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy), tacrolimus (Tac), and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF).

Subjects were tested for hemoglobin, ferritin, serum iron, transferrin saturation and reticulocyte count during routine prenatal examination at 24-26 weeks of gestation, and blood samples were taken for serum hepcidin detection in the laboratory and the values were recorded. Those who met the criteria were included in the study group, signed the informed consent form and randomized into groups, and were given different drug administration schemes (150mg orally every day, 300mg orally every day, 150mg orally every other day, 300mg orally every other day, intravenous). At the same time, each subject was given anemia diet education, and all subjects were given folic acid 400ug/d and vitamin C 0.5g/d orally during the treatment period. If the subjects were in the oral iron group, the same time of oral iron was determined as 20 o'clock ± 1 hour in the evening, and the oral iron was not taken with other drugs; If the subject is in the intravenous medication group, the medication is scheduled to be administered at a uniform time of 8 o'clock ± 1 hour in the morning. The above subjects were followed up. Hemoglobin, ferritin, serum iron, transferrin saturation and reticulocyte count were performed at 30-32 and 37 weeks of pregnancy and delivery, and blood samples were taken for serum hepcidin detection in the laboratory and the values were recorded. The adverse reactions were investigated with a questionnaire at the last prenatal examination before delivery. After full term delivery, the patient fills in the delivery information and enters it into the database. Finally, the data statistician and the above personnel used the blind method for statistical analysis and reached a conclusion.

This is a multicenter, placebo-control, phase 3 study of hetrombopag in patients with treatment-naive severe aplastic anemia. All subjects who have completed or withdrawn from the HR-TPO-SAA-III study will voluntarily participate in this extension study. Subjects will receive the same study drug (hetrombopag or placebo) as in study HR-TPO-SAA-III, with the same doses and administration schedule or with modifications based on the actual conditions. The primary objective of this extension study is to give the subjects participating in the HR-TPO-SAA-III study the continued access to the study drug (hetrombopag or placebo) after the completion of the HR-TPO-SAA-III study.

This is a multicenter, randomized, placebo-control, phase III study to investigate hetrombopag in subjects with severe AA who are treated naive. 180 treated naive patients with SAA will be enrolled in the study. The primary objective of the study will be the rate of complete hematologic response at six months.

This is a phase 1, prospective, single-arm, open-label study. The aim of this study is to evaluate the transfusion responses of platelet increment by using Daratumumab among aplastic anemia patients with platelet transfusion refractoriness.
