NCT06008808
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is one of the only curative intent therapies available for hematologic malignancies. HLA-matched sibling donors have historically offered the best clinical results but are unavailable for the majority of patients, while most patients do have readily available haploidentical donors. One of the risks of a haploidentical HCT is graft vs. host disease (GVHD), but it is difficult to reduce the incidence of GVHD without compromising the graft vs. leukemia (GVL) effect. The hypothesis of this study is that JAK inhibition with and without CTLA-4 Ig with haploidentical HCT may mitigate GVHD and cytokine release syndrome while retaining the GVL effect and improving engraftment.

This research is being done to evaluate the feasibility of the Horizons Program, a group-based behavioral intervention, to enhance quality of life in patients with chronic graft-versus-host disease.
NCT00106925
This study will provide follow-up evaluation and care of patients who have undergone allogeneic (donor) stem cell transplantation at the NIH Clinical Center. Patients are monitored for their response to treatment, disease relapse, and later-occurring effects of the transplant. Patients between 10 and 80 years of age who received a donor stem cell transplant at the NIH Clinical Center under an NHLBI protocol may be eligible for this study. Candidates must have had their first transplant at least 3 years before entering the current study. Participants are generally seen in the clinic every 12 months for some or all of the following procedures: * Periodic physical examinations, eye examinations, and blood and urine tests. * Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy: A sample of bone marrow is obtained for microscopic examination. The patient is given local anesthesia or conscious sedation. An area of the hipbone is numbed, a thin needle is inserted through the skin into the bone, and a small amount of marrow is withdrawn. * Tissue biopsy: A small piece of tissue or tumor is obtained for microscopic examination. Depending on the site of the biopsy, the tissue may be removed using a cookie cutter-like "punch" instrument, a needle, or a knife. The area is numbed and the tissue is removed with the appropriate tool. * Imaging tests to visualize organs, tissues, and cellular activity in specific tissues. For these tests, the patient lies on a table that slides into the scanner. They may include the following: 1. Nuclear scans use a sensitive camera to track a small amount of radioactive material (radioisotope) that is given to the patient by mouth or through a vein. The scan may show abnormal areas of tissue in the bones, liver, spleen, kidney, brain, thyroid, or spine. 2. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses a magnetic field and radio waves to examine small sections of body organs and tissues. 3. Computerized tomography (CT) uses x-rays and can be done from different angles to provide a 3-dimensional view of tissues and organs. 4. Positron emission tomography (PET) uses a fluid with a radioisotope attached to it to show cellular activity in specific tissues. The fluid is given through a vein and travels to the cells that are most active (like cancer cells), showing if there is an actively growing tumor. * Pulmonary (lung) function tests: The patient breathes into a machine that measures the volume of air the person can move into and out of the lungs. * Heart function tests may include the following: 1. Electrocardiogram (EKG) evaluates the electrical activity of the heart. Electrodes placed on the chest transmit information from the heart to a machine. 2. Echocardiogram (Echo) is an ultrasound test that uses sound waves to create an image of the heart and examine the function of the heart chambers and valves. 3. Multiple gated acquisition scan (MUGA) is a nuclear medicine test that uses a small amount of radioactive chemical injected into a vein. A special scanner creates an image of the heart for examining the beating motion of the muscle. Disease relapse or progression, or transplant-related problems may be treated with standard medical, radiation, or surgical therapy, or patients may be offered experimental therapy. ...
NCT03369353
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.
NCT05621759
This is a single arm, open label, phase II clinical trial. Adult patients with hematological malignancies undergoing allogeneic HSCT from first- or second-degree haploidentical donor are eligible for the study if they meet the standard criteria defined in our institutional standard operation procedures (SOPs), meet all inclusion criteria, and do not satisfy any exclusion criteria. Patients will receive non-myeloablative, reduced-intensity or myeloablative conditioning regimen followed by peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cells. Patients will receive dosed reduced cyclophosphamide, abatacept, and short-duration tacrolimus for GvHD prophylaxis.
NCT03842696
The purpose of this study is to determine the recommended phase 2 dose of the drug Vorinostat in children, adolescents and young adults following allogeneic blood or marrow transplant (BMT) and determine whether the addition of Vorinostat to the standard graft versus host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis will reduce the incidence of GVHD.
NCT03774082
This open-label, single-arm, Phase II multi-center study enrolled 46 participants and investigated the activity, pharmacokinetics and safety of ruxolitinib added to the subject's immunosuppressive regimen among infants, children, and adolescents aged ≥28 days to \<18 years old with either moderate to severe treatment-naive cGvHD or SR-cGvHD. Although 46 participants were enrolled,1 participant (enrolled in the ≥6y to \<12y age group) received study treatment beyond protocol requirements and was excluded from analyses.
NCT03229200
Multicenter, open-label, prospective treatment protocol that provides continued access to ibrutinib to subjects who have completed parent ibrutinib studies, are still benefitting from treatment with ibrutinib, and have no access to commercial ibrutinib for their underlying disease within their region.
NCT05718674
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.

NCT05132166
This is an academic open-label, phase II randomized study in patients with steroid resistant severe acute Graft versus host disease (GvHD) who have had allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The main purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of Decidual Stromal Cells (DSC) with Investigators choice best available treatment (BAT). If randomized to DSC arm, patients will receive 2 infusions in the vein at least one week apart. Additional doses (up to 4 doses) of DSC may be given depending on response.
NCT04337515
Patients in need of an allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) are at risk of developing graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD). In certain clinical situations, the optimal approach to minimize the risk of GVHD is to perform ex vivo alpha-beta T-cell depletion of the donor cells. However, the CliniMACS® Device is FDA-approved only for a narrow indication. All other uses of ex vivo processed cells must be done under a feasibility study protocol.
NCT03474679

The objective of this study is to describe the type of cell death induced by extracorporeal photochemotherapy, depending on the cell type, using a panel of complementary analysis techniques.
NCT02759731
Background: Chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) can affect people who had a hematopoietic stem cell transplant using donor cells. It is often fatal. It is usually treated with high doses of steroids. But that helps only about half the people in the long term. Researchers want to see if a drug called baricitinib can help people with cGVHD that has not responded to therapy. The drug inhibits the proteins involved in communication in the immune system. These proteins may play a role in cGVHD and other inflammatory diseases. Objectives: To test the safety and effectiveness of baricitinib in people with cGVHD that has not responded to therapy. Eligibility: Adults 18 and older with cGVHD that has not responded to therapy. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical exam, and blood and urine tests. They will have lung and heart tests and chest scans. Baseline visit: Participants will have: Medical history Physical exam Blood tests Tests for infectious diseases Skin, eye, and teeth evaluations Rehabilitation and occupational medicine evaluations Photos of any lesions Gynecology evaluation (females) The study will occur in 28-day cycles. Participants will take the study drug by mouth every day for 3 cycles. Some will take it for 3 or 6 more cycles. Participants will have a few visits during each cycle. They will repeat some previous tests. They may also have scans and questionnaires. Participants will have a visit when they stop taking the drug and another 3 months later. They will repeat a few study tests. They will have follow-up calls for 2 years.
