The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics (PD) and pharmacokinetics (PK) of single ascending doses of ALN-TTRSC04.
This is a single center prospective study evaluating 124I-evuzumitide in patients with systemic amyloidosis. The purpose of this study is to 1)identify and characterize the distribution and uptake of 124I-evuzumitide in patients with transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) and 2) Correlate the uptake with the structure and function of different organs, including the heart. To achieve these goals, eligible patients will undergo primarily hybrid positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI).
This phase I/Ia trial finds the best dose and side effects of venetoclax given in combination with ixazomib citrate and dexamethasone in treating patients with light chain amyloidosis that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) and who have an abnormal genetic change \[translocation t(11;14)\]. Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Ixazomib citrate is in a class of medications called proteasome inhibitors.
This phase I trial studies the side effects of isatuximab and to see how well it works in treating patients with high risk immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis (AL amyloidosis). Isatuximab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
The purpose of this study is assess safety, safest dose, and effectiveness of venetoclax in combination with dexamethasone in participants with t(11;14) positive relapsed (comes back) or refractory (did not get better) light chain amyloidosis.
Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) is a commonly undiagnosed and potentially fatal disease. Contemporary studies on this condition often underrepresent the female gender and diverse patient populations. This registry retrospectively evaluated patients referred for 99mTc-pyrophosphate (PYP) Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) between 2014 and 2023 at Montefiore-Einstein in the Bronx. The patient population is racially and ethnically diverse and with a high proportion of females. Demographic, clinical (e.g.
Despite rapidly advancing developments in targeted therapeutics and genetic sequencing, persistent limits in the accuracy and throughput of clinical phenotyping has led to a widening gap between the potential and the actual benefits realized by precision medicine.
Recent advances in machine learning and image processing techniques have shown that machine learning models can identify features unrecognized by human experts and more precisely/accurately assess common measurements made in clinical practice.
Cardiac amyloidosis is a major cause of early treatment-related death and poor overall survival in individuals with systemic light chain amyloidosis. This project will develop a novel approach to visualize cardiac amyloid deposits using advanced imaging methods. The long-term goal of this work is to identify the mechanisms of cardiac dysfunction, in order to guide the development of novel life-saving treatments.
The primary purpose of this protocol is to create a registry of older (≥50 years old) patients with Hematologic Malignancies. Our main objectives include: To understand the prevalence of frailty and geriatric impairments among patients aged ≥50y and above diagnosed with a hematologic malignancy at UAB and to gather information that would lend support for future research in this vulnerable population.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about malnutrition and weight loss in patients with Amyloidosis.
The main question it aims to answer is:
Is it feasible to use a low-cost nutrition-based application (apps) for use on a smartphone to obtain detailed information on caloric intake in Amyloidosis patients
Participants will be asked to:
