Active clinical trials for "Hematologic Neoplasms"

The purpose of this study is to determine the uptake of the imaging agent [68Ga]-pentixafor with PET/CT scans in people with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM), and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), or you have histiocytic neoplasms (Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) and/or Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD).

This study seeks to determine if patients undergoing a bone marrow biopsy/aspiration (BMBA) procedure who receive distraction techniques have lower levels of distress and pain, and higher post-procedure satisfaction, compared to those receiving standard-of-care. Intervention 1 is guided meditation in a virtual reality (VR) headset. Intervention 2 is comprised of environmental changes to the room (via nature-themed decals) and music.

The goal of this clinical study is to learn more about the long-term safety, effectiveness and prolonged action of Kite study drugs, axicabtagene ciloleucel, brexucabtagene autoleucel, KITE-222, KITE-363, KITE-439, KITE-585, and KITE-718, in participants of Kite-sponsored interventional studies.

The purpose of this prospective and observational study is to evaluate the correlation between gut microbiota and clinical response to CAR-T treatment for hematological malignancies

HEM-iSMART is a master protocol which investigates multiple investigational medicinal products in children, adolescents and young adults (AYA) with relapsed/refractory (R/R) ALL and LBL. Sub-protocol D is a phase I/II trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of trametinib in combination with dexamethasone, cyclophosphamide and cytarabine in children and AYA with R/R ped ALL/LBL whose tumor present with alterations in the RAS-RAF-MAPK pathway.

The aim of the study is to find out if patients with blood cancers receiving immunoglobulin (Ig) for the purpose of preventing infections can safety stop immunoglobulin after six months of therapy, and take oral antibiotics instead to prevent serious infections. Patients may be eligible to join this study if they are aged 18 years or above, have an acquired hypogammaglobulinaemia secondary to a haematological malignancy, and have been receiving intravenous or subcutaneous Ig for longer than 6 consecutive months. Participants will be randomised (allocated by chance) to one of three treatment groups, as follows: Stop immunoglobulin (IVIg or SCIg) and be given oral antibiotics to take every day (ARM A) Stop immunoglobulin (IVIg or SCIg) and be given oral antibiotics to keep at home to use as soon as symptoms of an infection develop (ARM B) Continue receiving immunoglobulin (IVIg or SCIg) - this is the usual care group (ARM C) The duration of each treatment is for 12 months from study entry. Participants will be asked to attend a screening/baseline visit so that their treating clinician can assess their eligibility for the trial and collect baseline data. If eligible for the trial, participants will then be randomly allocated to one of the three treatment groups. Once randomised, active participation in the study will last for 13 months. During this period, participants will be asked to return to the hospital for a study visit every 3 months, with monthly telephone visits to check-in on your progress between each in-person visit. Participants will also be asked to complete a study diary, recording treatment compliance and signs/symptoms of infection experienced throughout the study period. Types of assessments and data collected will include: Medical history, demographics, physical examination, blood tests, stool sample, quality of life questionnaires, information about your general health, hospitalisations, medications and procedures. In order to assess and compare the cost-effectiveness of the treatment groups, the study team will also request authorisation from participants to access their Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS), Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS), and Australian Immunisation Register (AIR) data.

The goal of this study is to determine whether a palliative care intervention (PEACE) can improve the quality of life and experiences of participants with Lymphoma, Leukemia, or Multiple Myeloma receiving adoptive cellular therapy (ACT). After completion of an open pilot, participants will be randomly assigned into one of two study intervention groups. The names of the study intervention groups involved in this study are: Palliative care (PEACE) plus usual oncology care Usual care (standard oncology care) Participation in this research study is expected to last for up to 2 years. It is expected that about 90 people will take part in this research study.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence and types of oral complications found in patients diagnosed with haematological malignancy

Antibacterial prophylaxis is recommended in patients at high risk of infection, specifically patients undergoing acute leukemia induction therapy or hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) who are expected to have profound neutropenia (ANC<100 neutrophils/milliliter) for more than seven days. Xerava™ (eravacycline) has a broad spectrum of activity including many multi-drug resistant strains of bacteria. It is not an agent used for treatment of febrile neutropenia, making eravacycline a very attractive alternative to consider in this prophylactic setting. Eravacycline has activity against MRSA, VRE, and Clostridioides difficile, all of which are common problems in this patient population. It also covers the majority of enteric gram-negative pathogens while also producing satisfactory tissue penetration and adequate plasma concentrations, which has classically been a concern with prior agents. Eravacycline has activity against coagulase-negative staphylococcus, which is a common catheter-related infection in leukemia and HSCT patients. The primary objective will be report the incidence of antibiotic prophylaxis failure with eravacycline prophylaxis for hematologic malignancy patients with prolonged neutropenia.

The Allo-RevCAR01-T-CD123 drug is a combination of a cellular component (Allo-RevCAR01-T) with a recombinant antibody derivative (R-TM123), which together form the active drug. The cellular component Allo-RevCAR01-T consists of an allogeneic human T-cell genetically multi-edited and expressing a reversed, universal chimeric antigen receptor (RevCAR) presenting an extracellular peptide epitope (RevCAR epitope). R TM123 functions as a bridging module between Allo RevCAR01-T and a CD123-expressing target cancer cell by selectively binding the RevCAR epitope and CD123.
