This study evaluates the outcomes of patients undergoing initial therapy for multiple myeloma.
By using a highly sensitive serum M protein detection method based on the MALDI-TOF MS platform, serum monoclonal immunoglobul (M protein) in detection was performed on the visiting patients to explore the positive rate of serum M protein and its distribution in different departments. And exploring the correlation analysis between the relative concentration of serum M protein based on the above highly sensitive methods and clinical indicators.
Participants in this study will be receiving a bone marrow transplant. This study is designed to evaluate correlations between activity levels and length of stay, quality of life, and hand grip strength.
Evaluation of myeloma disease burden is currently suboptimal. This limits treatment planning and evaluation of residual disease following treatment. 89Zr-DFO-daratumumab is a novel immunoPET tracer, designed to detect CD38 on myeloma cells and allow visualization of myeloma in a PET scanner. A phase I study of 89Zr-DFO-daratumumab demonstrated safety and successful visualization of myeloma with 89Zr-DFO-daratumumab. This will be a phase II study of 89Zr-DFO-daratumumab to evaluate potential clinical applications of this novel imaging agent.
Background: A person s tumor is studied for mutations. When cells are found that can attack the mutation in a person s tumor, the genes from those cells are studied to find the parts that make the attack possible. White blood cells are then taken from the person s body, and the gene transfer occurs in a laboratory. A type of virus is used to transfer the genes that make those white blood cells able to attack the mutation in the tumor. The gene transfer therapy is the return of those white blood cells back to the person. Objective: To see if gene transfer therapy of white blood cells can shrink tumors. ...
Multiple myeloma (MM) is the second most common hematological malignancy and is still incurable. Positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) has been used to diagnose, assess treatment response, and predict prognosis in MM. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) is the most widely used radiotracer, but there is heterogeneous uptake in MM, that is, uptake is negative in some myeloma cells. There are currently reports of cases with strong uptake of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT in MM. Therefore, this preliminary study was designed to compare the imaging results of 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT and 18F-FDG PET/CT, and to...
Clinical Study on the Safety and Effectiveness of Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Combined With CAR-T Cells in the Treatment of Refractory and Relapsed Multiple Myeloma
The present project aims at comparing two conditioning regimens (FM-PTCy vs FM-ATG). The hypothesis is that one or the two regimens will lead to a 2-year cGRFS rate improvement from 30% (the cGRFS rate with FM without ATG/PTCy) to 45% (Pick-a-winner phase 2 randomized study).
Allogeneic stem cell (allo SCT) transplantation for multiple myeloma is a potential curative treatment, but is associated with morbidity and treatment related mortality. Approved drug combinations or another autologous stem cell transplantation (auto-SCT) can be used for relapsed patients resulting in a median progression free survival up to 2-3 years. In the current trial after first-line treatment relapsed or progressed myeloma patients with an HLA compatible donor will be randomized after 3 cycles of salvage therapy to allogeneic stem cell transplantation or to continuous conventional salvage therapy.
This is a Phase II study following subjects proceeding with our Institutional non-myeloablative cyclophosphamide/ fludarabine/total body irradiation (TBI) preparative regimen followed by a related, unrelated, or partially matched family donor stem cell infusion using post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy), sirolimus and MMF GVHD prophylaxis.
