Longitudinal Study on the QoL of Pediatric Patients After HSCT and Its Influencing Factors

Thalassemia MajorAcute Leukemia

Objective: To longitudinally track the dynamic changes in the survival quality of pediatric patients after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation at different time points within 1 year post-transplantation, analyze the influencing factors of survival quality at each time point, identify independent risk factors that can be intervened, provide reference for medical staff to recognize survival quality problems early, guide the dynamic management of clinical survival quality, and formulate continuation care management plans. Methods: This study adopted a repeated measurement study design. A total of 250 pediatric patients who underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in three tertiary hospitals in Guangdong Province from August 2023 to December 2025 and met the research standards were selected as the research subjects. The "Childhood Health Assessment Questionnaire Transplant Module 3.0 Chinese Version" was used to evaluate the survival quality of the patients at six time points: 1 week before pre-treatment (T0), the day of stem cell infusion (T1), 1 month (T2), 3 months (T3), 6 months (T4), and 1 year (T5) after transplantation. Statistical methods for repeated measures were used to analyze the relevant information, and mixed-effect linear models were used to analyze the influencing factors of survival quality at the six time points, and to identify independent risk factors.

A Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of the LentiGlobin BB305 Drug Product in β-Thalassemia...

β-thalassemia Major

This is a non-randomized, open label, multi-site, single-dose, phase 1/2 study in up to 18 participants (including at least 3 adolescents between 12 and 17 years of age, inclusive) with β-thalassemia major. The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) using LentiGlobin BB305 Drug Product [autologous CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells transduced with LentiGlobin BB305 lentiviral vector encoding the human βA-T87Q-globin gene].

Efficacy and Safety of Neridronate (Nerixia®)to Treat Osteoporosis in Patients With TM and TI

OsteoporosisThalassemia Major1 more

An Italian Multicentric randomized, open-label therapeutic trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of Neridronate in the treatment of Osteoporosis in patients with Thalassemia Major and Severe Thalassemia Intermedia. Efficacy and safety of the drug will be evaluated measuring at every visit this parameters: haematological: Haemochrome blood chemistry: creatinine, BUN, AST, ALT, Ca, P, proteins electrophoresis, total proteins. The prevalence of ectopic calcification and pseudoxantoma elasticum (PXE)-like syndrome and their follow-up will be evaluated at the beginning of the study vs 24 months through physical examination, abdominal echography and fundus oculi examination. During the trial other known risks factors for osteoporosis will be recorded, including prevalence and incidence of bone fractures and, if executed, Polimorphisms COLIA1. At the beginning of the study and at months 12 and 24 morphometry DXA will be performed to evaluate of the presence of bone deformities. Furthermore data regarding QOL and symptom pain will be evaluated trough administration of scale SF-36. At 12 months an intratrial analisis will be performed on efficacy and safety parameters in order to introduce possible amendments to the study design and to decide the prosecution of the trial During the trial all adverse events will be recorded

Safety and Pharmacodynamic Study of an Oral Iron Chelator Given for 6 Months to Patients With Iron...

Transfusional Iron OverloadBeta-thalassemia

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety of two doses of FBS0701, a new oral iron chelator, and its effectiveness in clearing iron from the liver. FBS0701 is a medication taken by mouth that causes the body to get rid of iron. Iron chelators are used in patients with β-thalassemia and other forms of anemia who experience iron overload - iron increases in the body as a result of regularly required blood transfusions. Patients who qualify will be randomized to receive one of two doses of FBS0701 for up to 24 weeks (6 months) with a total study duration of up to 33 weeks. These patients will be eligible to participate in a dosing extension for up to 72 weeks. The maximum duration of dosing will be up to 96 weeks. The safety of patients will be monitored frequently during the study by physical exams, ECGs, and blood tests. To assess the amount of iron in the liver and heart, each patient must undergo 6 MRI scans during the study. Patients will not need to stay in the hospital for this study but will need to visit the outpatient clinic up to 28 times over the 96 week period. Patients currently taking an iron chelator will be required to stop for a total of up to 26 weeks. The results of this study will help to determine if FBS0701 may be effective as an iron chelator.

Evaluating the Safety and Effectiveness of Decitabine in People With Thalassemia Intermedia

Thalassemia

Thalassemia intermedia (TI) is an inherited blood disorder that can cause anemia due to low levels of hemoglobin. Decitabine is a medication that may be effective at increasing hemoglobin levels. This study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of decitabine at increasing hemoglobin levels in people with TI.

Evaluating the Safety of G-CSF Mobilization in Individuals With Beta Thalassemia Major

Beta-Thalassemia

Beta thalassemia major is a serious genetic disease of the blood. Treatments are limited, and although a bone marrow transplant from a compatible donor can be curative, only a limited percentage of individuals with this disease have a matched donor available. A long-term goal of study researchers is to develop a gene transfer process as a method of curing beta thalassemia major. Gene transfer involves obtaining blood stem cells from an individual, adding a normal globin gene to the stem cells, and putting the cells back into the individual. Before gene transfer methods can be attempted in individuals with beta thalassemia major, a safe method of obtaining blood stem cells needs to be developed. The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and feasibility of collecting peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) from individuals with beta thalassemia major. Research participants will be given G-CSF (filgrastim) for several days to increase the number of stem cells in the blood, a process called "mobilization." After mobilization, participants will undergo a procedure called apheresis to remove the white blood cells. Researchers in the laboratory will purify the stem cells from the mixture and test methods of putting a normal globin gene into the stem cells. Half of the participants will receive hydroxyurea (HU) prior to G-CSF mobilization. HU is used in splenectomized patients to attempt to reduce the risk of clotting during mobilization. In non-splenectomized patients, HU is given in an attempt to decrease the size of the spleen.

Efficacy Study of the Use of Sequential DFP-DFO Versus DFP

Beta-ThalassemiaThalassemia Major

Changes in chelation treatment and transfusion practices, during the past two decades, have dramatically improved the prognosis of thalassemia major patients.Deferiprone (DFP) has been compared with deferoxamine (DFO), using different schedules of treatment, in the majority of the 13 clinical trials published between 1990 and 2008.No statistically significant difference was shown between these two interventions during, at most, 18 months of treatment.Three randomised trials that compared sequential DFP-DFO treatment versus DFO alone reported controversial results but this could be due to small sample sizes and short treatment duration. In fact, no trial with treatment duration longer than 18 months15, which reported on mortality, adverse events, serum ferritin concentrations, as well as costs has so far been published. This long-term sequential DFP-DFO treatment versus DFP alone treatment trial was conducted to assess the impacts of these chelation treatments on serum ferritin concentrations, mortality, adverse events, and costs in thalassemia major patients.
