Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) Clinical Trials

With compromised bone marrow function, patients with aplastic anemia (AA) and/and hypoplastic myelodysplastic syndrome (hMDS) are at an increased risk of invasive fungal infection. Moreover, the use of antithyocyte globulin (ATG), a part of standard first line treatment for AA/hMDS, increases the risk of fungal infection due to its antilymophocytic ...

The standard Johns Hopkins' regimen will be used in study subjects, with the use of donor peripheral blood stem cells, rather than marrow. Clinical outcomes will be defined while focusing efforts on immune reconstitution focusing on immune checkpoint regulators after a related haploidentical stem cell transplant.

This pilot study has been designed to investigate the safety of pembrolizumab treatment for disease relapse following allogeneic stem cell transplant (alloSCT). Pembrolizumab will be administered at a fixed dose of 200 mg IV every 3 weeks. Approximately 12-26 patients with relapsed MDS, AML, or mature B cell (B-NHL, cHL) ...

RIC regimen was given for low and intermediate MDS patients who would receive haplo-HSCT. The primary end point was transplant-related mortality. The secondary end points were overall survival, disease-free survival, relapse, , graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and infections. Following time is 1 years.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the clinical activity of kinase inhibitors using pre-clinical (in-vitro) activity to select individual therapy. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate overall objective response rates (complete response plus partial response). II. Determine overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). III. Any changes in transfusion requirements. TERTIARY OBJECTIVES: ...

One of the major challenges in the field of allo-SCT is to find a balance between the harmful induction of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and the beneficial graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) response, both mediated by donor T cells recognizing antigens expressed on cells of the recipient. Complete removal of T cells from the ...

To assess tolerability of SyB C-1101 when administered orally BID for 21 days followed by a 7-day observation period in patients with recurrent/relapsed or refractory myelodysplastic syndrome in order to determine a recommended dose (RD). To assess safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetics.

The study will enroll 20 eligible subjects who will receive NK cell infusion to test whether infusion of expanded activated NK cells can produce measurable clinical responses in patients with AML/MDS or T-ALL.The study aims to infuse a target dose of 10 x 107 CD56+ cells/kg, however, as the actual ...

The induction of transplantation tolerance involves the specific elimination of the immune response to the transplant but not to other antigens. In the realm of kidney transplantation, tolerance means that the recipient is unable to detect the donor transplant kidney as foreign, and therefore the recipient is unable to reject ...

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the cumulative incidence of extensive chronic graft versus host disease (GVHD) at 1 year after transplantation utilizing the novel conditioning/GVHD prophylactic regimen for patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation, in patients who do not progress before day 100. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate clinical response, ...
