Active clinical trials for "Graft vs Host Disease"

This pilot phase II trial studies how well high dose cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, and mycophenolate mofetil work in preventing graft versus host disease in patients with hematological malignancies undergoing myeloablative or reduced intensity donor stem cell transplant. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells (called graft versus host disease). Giving high dose cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, and mycophenolate mofetil after the transplant may stop this from happening.

This research is being done to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of a multidisciplinary, patient-centered intervention, Horizons Program, versus minimally enhanced standard care to improve quality of life, symptom burden and psychological distress of adults who received an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant and developed graft versus-host disease (GVHD).

Post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCY) is considered as major graft versus host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. In our previous study, the investigators demonstrated that the standard dose PTCY of 50mg/kg with tacrolimus and post-engrafted low-dose anti-thymoglobulin (ATG) achieved low incidence of acute GVHD. More recently, it has been shown that reduced dose of PTCY of 40mg/kg is considered with similar efficacy as GVHD prophylaxis, In this study, a multi-center randomized comparison is planned to evaluate the clinical outcome of GVHD prophylaxis of PTCy 40 versus 50.

This is an observational study on extracorporeal photopheresis,an established therapy for the treatment of Graft versus Host Disease (GvHD) post allogeneic haemopoietic stem cell transplantation. There are different techniques and devices to perform cell collection procedure, photoactivation and infusion of mononuclear cells. The investigators will enrol patients undergoing allogeneic transplants and extracorporeal photopheresis in order to understand whether the different ways in which photopheresis is performed affect cell products and clinical response.

Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a life-threatening complication of transplantation. It occurs when the donor graft contains immunologically competent T-cells that recognize the recipient as foreign.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of donor regulatory T cells in treating patients with graft-versus-host disease affecting the liver or gastrointestinal organs (visceral) within 100 days (acute) after undergoing a stem cell transplant. Graft-versus-host disease occurs when donor immune cells infused in a stem cell transplant attack the gut, skin, liver, or other organ systems of the patient. Regulatory T cells are a type of immune cell that may be able to reduce the attack of the donor's immune cells on the patient's normal cells and help treat graft-vs-host disease.

The goal of the Precision Diagnosis in Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Cellular Therapies, and Transplantation (PREDICT) trial is to apply a systems-biology approach to enable precision diagnostics for the key immunologic outcomes for patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Cellular Therapeutics and Transplantation. This approach will deepen the understanding of the molecular mechanisms driving auto- and allo-immune diseases and serve as a critical platform upon which to design evidence-based treatment paradigms for these patients. This research study will examine the immunology of auto- and allo-immune gastrointestinal disturbances such as Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), Graft-versus-Host Disease (GVHD), and Functional Gastrointestinal Disorder (FGID), as well as the immune manifestations after CAR-T and other cellular therapeutics. The Investigators seek to use blood and tissue samples in order to better understand the mechanisms driving these diseases and their therapies. The Investigators further hypothesize that longitudinal systems-based immunologic analysis will enable the patient-specific determination of the molecular evolution of IBD, GVHD and the response to cellular therapeutics, as well post-transplant defects in protective immunity, and determine which pathways, when perturbed, can cause clinical disease. The discovery of these pathways will lead to improved diagnostic, prognostic and treatment approaches, and to personalized therapeutic decision-making for these patients.

Explore the tolerability and efficacy of letermovir in the prevention of CMV reactivation in patients with acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) beyond day 100.

This study will validate a previously developed pediatric prognostic biomarker algorithm aimed at improving prediction of risk for the later development of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGvHD) in children and young adults undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant. By developing an early risk stratification of patients into low-, intermediate-, and high-risk for future cGvHD development (based upon their biomarker profile, before the onset of cGvHD), pre-emptive therapies aimed at preventing the onset of cGvHD can be developed based upon an individual's biological risk profile. This study will also continue research into diagnostic biomarkers of cGvHD, and begin work into biomarker models that predict clinical response to cGvHD therapies.
