GVHD

This is a single-arm, open label, phase 2 study to determine the safety and efficacy of vorinostat without serotherapy as GVHD prophylaxis when combined with either tacrolimus and methotrexate or post-transplant cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, and mycophenolate in patients aged 1 to 26 years of age with non-malignant disorders undergoing bone marrow transplant following myeloablative conditioning.

The purpose of this study is to find out whether photobiomodulation/PBM therapy using the Thor LX2.3 therapy system is a safe and effective treatment for oral Graft-Versus-Host Disease/GVHD.

The transplantation of allogeneic haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) can lead to serious complications after transplantation, such as graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), infections and relapse due to immunosuppression. Invariant NKT cells (iNKT cells) play a pivotal role in modulating the immune response and have been demonstrated to be instrumental in the pathogenesis of GvHD, cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, and relapse. Their levels are associated with the development of these complications. This multicentre study aims to test the feasibility of standardising iNKT cell monitoring and to investigate the association between iNKT cell levels and post-transplant complications.

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) remains the only curative therapy in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Most of the patients requiring an allo-HSCT are above 50 years of age and are transplanted with a reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen. The optimal RIC and Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD) prophylaxis regimen allowing a good control of the disease while preventing GVHD remains to be determined for elderly patients. A phase III trial comparing the conventional RIC fludarabine-busulfan 2 days to fludarabine-treosulfan demonstrated an advantage for the flu-treosulfan arm in terms of event free survival (EFS), that should therefore be considered as the new standard of RIC regimen for AML and MDS. GVHD prevention has a crucial role in post-transplant outcomes by potentially interfering with the graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect and immune reconstitution. Anti-thymocyte globulins (ATG) are recommended to reduce the risk of acute and chronic GVHD in transplants performed with matched unrelated donors. However, the optimal type of ATG between the 2 approved brands (ATG-thymoglobulin and ATLG-grafalon) displaying distinct characteristics and the optimal dose of ATG are still unknown. In a retrospective study of patients transplanted mainly with RIC with matched related and unrelated donors for haematological malignancies, Anti-T lymphocyte globulin (ATLG) was associated with a reduction of grade II-IV acute GVHD in comparison to ATG without increasing the incidence of relapse. This phase III randomised study propose to compare GVHD prevention with ATG versus ATLG in AML and MDS patients above 50 years of age transplanted with a matched unrelated donor following a fludarabine-treosulfan RIC, with the hypothesis that ATLG would better control GVHD in this population of patients thus limiting the risk of morbidity and mortality of the procedure.

The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility and safety of early cessation of tacrolimus following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Post-HCT tacrolimus is given to prevent graft-vs-host-disease (GVHD), but with the use of post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy), the modern approach to GVHD prevention, GVHD rates have reduced markedly.

This randomized, phase I/II, open-label study will investigate the efficacy and safety of an educational sleep intervention vs standard of care in adults undergoing alloHSCT. The randomization target in this pilot phase is 60 patients.

This prospective observational study evaluates the association between psychiatric status, GvHD-related symptom severity, and health-related quality of life in patients with graft-versus-host disease. Standardized and validated assessment tools, including the Lee Symptom Scale, will be used to collect psychiatric, clinical, and demographic data.

Autologous serum eye drops (ASED) are an established therapy for ocular surface diseases; however, their preparation can be costly and may not be available due to the need for germ-free conditions. This pilot trial assesses the feasibility of collecting ASED in a closed-circuit system for patients with chronic ocular surface diseases.

The purpose of this Phase 1, first in human open-label study is to assess the safety and tolerability of TRX-103 in patients with hematological malignancies undergoing HLA-mismatched related or unrelated hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). It is anticipated that up to 36 Subjects will be enrolled during a 18-24 month enrollment period. TRX-103 will be infused one time post HSCT.

This is a randomized, single-center phase 1/2a clinical trial without blinding. Regulatory T cells (Tregs) have shown potential in treating various immune-related diseases, including autoimmune disorders, transplant rejection, and inflammatory diseases. The investigators plan to recruit participants for a clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of autologous Tregs in the treatment of GVHD.

The goal of this observation study is to test in patients undergoing allogeneic hemopoietic stem-cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). The main question it aims to answer is: • Effect of MAGIC algorithm probability guided preemption of aGVHD with ruxolitinib on prevention of severe aGVHD. Participants will take ruxolitinib with the dose of 5mg bid for 28 days. If no signs of aGvHD, the dose of ruxolitinib is gradually tapered within the following 16 days. Researchers will compare patients who don't receive preemption of aGVHD with ruxolitinib to see if there is an improvement in severe aGVHD.
