Measuring if Immunotherapy Plus Chemotherapy is Better Than Chemotherapy Alone for Patients With Aggressive Poorly Differentiated Sarcomas
Recruiting
This phase III trial compares the effect of immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) plus chemotherapy (doxorubicin) to chemotherapy (doxorubicin) alone in treating patients with undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) or a related poorly differentiated sarcoma that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) or that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Doxorubicin is in a class of medications called anthracyclines. Doxorubicin damages the cell'... Read More

Effect of Inhaled Technosphere Insulin vs RAA Insulin on Exercise-Induced Hypoglycemia in Adults With T1D Using Automated Insulin Delivery
Recruiting
This investigator-initiated study will enroll about 30 adults 18 to 60 years of age with type 1 diabetes (T1D) who are using the Tandem t:slim X2 insulin pump with Control-IQ or Control-IQ+ technology ("Control-IQ" which will refer to either Control-IQ or Control-IQ+). The study is being done to find out if inhaled insulin given for a meal is safer and better to use than a bolus of insulin through your pump when you exercise following a meal. Participants are asked to complete three study exerci... Read More

Home Blood Transfusions
Recruiting
This is a pilot single arm study to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a home blood transfusion program. Patients will be enrolled with hematologic malignancies and other bone marrow failure syndromes who are transfusion dependent and interested in a home blood transfusion program. Participants enrolled in the study will receive 1-5 units of blood products at home. Data on barriers to administration will be recorded. Surveys and qualitative interviews will be completed to better under... Read More

ALS20-101 Lentiviral Gene Therapy for Beta Thalassemia
Recruiting
The main goal of this study is to find out if the blood disorder called transfusion-dependent beta thalassemia can be safely treated by modifying blood stem cells. This is done by collecting blood stem cells from the subject, modifying those cells, adding a healthy beta globin gene, and then giving them back to the subject. It is hoped that these modified cells will decrease the need for blood transfusions. The gene modified blood stem cells are called CHOP-ALS20 ("study drug"). This experimenta... Read More

Crohn's disease (CD) is a long-lasting disease that causes severe inflammation (redness, swelling), in the digestive tract, most often affecting the bowels. It can cause many different symptoms including abdominal pain, diarrhea, tiredness, and weight loss. This study will assess how safe and effective oral Upadacitinib is in treating moderately to severely active Crohn's Disease in pediatric participants aged 2 to 18 years old who have had inadequate response, loss of response, intolerance, or...

A Study of Mezagitamab in Adults With Chronic Primary Immune Thrombocytopenia
Recruiting
Primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a condition where the immune system mistakenly destroys platelets, which are cells that help stop bleeding. This leads to a low number of platelets, making it easier to bruise or bleed. The main aim of this study is to learn whether mezagitamab, when given just under the skin (subcutaneously \[SC\]), is effective in keeping the platelet count of adults with ITP stable when compared to a placebo. A placebo looks like medicine but doesn't have any active in... Read More
