MT2013-31: Allo HCT for Metabolic Disorders and Severe Osteopetrosis
Mucopolysaccharidosis DisordersHurler Syndrome27 moreThis single-institution, phase II study is designed to test the ability to achieve donor hematopoietic engraftment while maintaining low rates of transplant-related mortality (TRM) using busulfan- and fludarabine-based conditioning regimens with busulfan therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) for patients with various inherited metabolic disorders (IMD) and severe osteopetrosis (OP).
Study of Gene Modified Donor T-cells Following TCR Alpha Beta Positive Depleted Stem Cell Transplant...
Acute Lymphoblastic LeukemiaLeukemia11 moreThis study will evaluate pediatric patients with malignant or non-malignant blood cell disorders who are having a blood stem cell transplant depleted of T cell receptor (TCR) alfa and beta cells that comes from a partially matched family donor. The study will assess whether immune cells, called T cells, from the family donor, that are specially grown in the laboratory and given back to the patient along with the stem cell transplant can help the immune system recover faster after transplant. As a safety measure these T cells have been programmed with a self-destruct switch so that they can be destroyed if they start to react against tissues (graft versus host disease).
rhPTH Therapy for Low Turnover Bone Fragility
OsteopetrosisThe purpose of this study is to determine how treatment with a new medication, recombinant human parathyroid hormone (rhPTH) affects calcium balance and bone strength.
A Trial to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of RP-L401-0120 in Subjects With Infantile Malignant Osteopetrosis...
Infantile Malignant OsteopetrosisThe primary objective of this Phase 1 study is to evaluate the therapeutic safety and feasibility of the investigational product (IP), RP-L401.
Reduced Intensity AlloTransplant For Osteopetrosis
OsteopetrosisWe believe that hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) will help subjects with Osteopetrosis generate functioning osteoclasts, and by so doing assist in the resolution of the abnormal bone architecture, and the anemia and bone marrow failure that is also characteristic of this disease. However, we have found in past studies that approximately 30% of Osteopetrosis patients do not engraft. Therefore, in this study, we plan to use a different combination of pre-transplant drugs to try to make transplants safer for this disease, as well as to provide a second infusion of stem cells in patients with matched related or unrelated donors. The purpose of this research is to find a safer and more effective means of performing stem cell transplantation in patients with Osteopetrosis, using chemotherapy and radiation designed to bring about engraftment and lessen transplant mortality.
Stem Cell Transplantation for Children Affected With Osteopetrosis
OsteopetrosisMalignant infantile osteopetrosis (MIOP) is a rare fatal genetic disorder that is characterized by the bone's inability to regulate remodeling. The only curative therapy is hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Stem cells provided from an HLA identical matched sibling donor is the standard of care, but not feasible for the majority of patients. In addition, due to the potentially rapid progression of this disease, the time to identify a suitable HLA matched unrelated donor is not optimal. Therefore this study is designed to test the hypothesis that children with osteopetrosis can properly engraft hematopoietic stem cells that are donated from a partially matched parental donor, or "haploidentical" stem cell donor that are processed on the investigational device, CliniMACS selection system.
Safety Study of Gene Modified Donor T-cells Following TCRαβ+ Depleted Stem Cell Transplant
Acute Lymphoblastic LeukemiaLeukemia16 moreThis study will evaluate pediatric patients with malignant or non-malignant blood cell disorders who are having a blood stem cell transplant depleted of T cell receptor (TCR) alfa and beta cells that comes from a partially matched family donor. The study will assess whether immune cells, called T cells, from the family donor, that are specially grown in the laboratory and given back to the patient along with the stem cell transplant can help the immune system recover faster after transplant. As a safety measure these T cells have been programmed with a self-destruct switch so that they can be destroyed if they start to react against tissues (Graft versus host disease).
T-cell Depleted Alternative Donor Transplantation
Acute Lymphoblastic LeukemiaAcute Myeloid Leukemia7 moreThe primary purpose is to determine the ability of CD34+ selection and T cell depletion using the CliniMACS® device to prevent severe acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in patients receiving a stem cell transplant from an alternative (unrelated and mismatched related) donor. The secondary objectives include evaluation of engraftment, immune recovery, and post-transplant infections. Patients requiring stem cell transplants for either malignant (cancerous) or non-malignant disease will be included in the study. The recipients will be grouped into one of two groups based on whether the donor is mismatched related (Cohort A) or unrelated (Cohort B). The patient will receive a conditioning regimen including chemotherapy drugs and/or total body irradiation based on the disease for which the transplant is performed.
Allogeneic Transplantation For Severe Osteopetrosis
Severe OsteopetrosisThe purpose of this research is to explore what we believe may be a safer and more effective means of performing stem cell transplantation in patients with Osteopetrosis, using chemotherapy and radiation designed to bring about engraftment and lessen transplant mortality. Prior multi-institutional data in past studies found that approximately 30% of Osteopetrosis patients do not engraft. Therefore, in this study, we utilize a reduced intensity design of pre-transplant drugs to try to make transplants safer for this disease, as well as to provide a second infusion of stem cells in patients with matched related or unrelated donors.
ACTIMMUNE in Intermediate Osteopetrosis
OsteopetrosisThis study evaluates the effects of ACTIMMUNE (IFN-γ1b) in children and adults with intermediate osteoporosis. All participants will receive treatment with ACTIMMUNE for 12 months. The investigators hypothesize that ACTIMMUNE will be tolerated by participants for the full 12 months and result in decreased disease severity.
