Tocilizumab and Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) | This study seeks to determine the efficacy of tocilizumab (TCZ) in patients with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) and high cytokine levels (proteins involved in inflammation) in an attempt to decrease the damage caused by these proteins; and secondarily to assess its safety and impact on disease activity. | Phase 2 | Active, not recruiting | Drug: tocilizumab | Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States | More Information |
A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Emapalumab in Adult Patients With HLH | Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare, life-threatening condition characterized by uncontrolled hyperinflammation which may develop on the background of several clinical conditions (e.g. autoimmune disease, infection, malignancy). Emapalumab (previously referred to as NI-0501) is a monoclonal antibody neutralizing interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), a key cytokine driving the inflammation and tissue damage seen in HLH. The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of emapalumab in adult patients with HLH.

Use Of A Response-Adapted Ruxolitinib-Containing Regimen For The Treatment Of Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis | This study is a multi-site Phase Ib/II, 2-arm non-randomized clinical trial to determine the efficacy and tolerability of a response-adapted regimen combining ruxolitinib, dexamethasone, and etoposide as Frontline therapy for patients with newly diagnosed hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) or as Salvage therapy for patients with relapsed/refractory HLH. | Phase 1|Phase 2 | Recruiting | Drug: Ruxolitinib|Drug: Dexamethasone|Drug: Etoposide | St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, Memphis, Tennessee, United States | More Information |
Alemtuzumab or Tocilizumab in Combination With Etoposide and Dexamethasone for the Treatment of Adult Patients With Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis | The goal of this clinical research study is to compare the effect of adding either alemtuzumab or tocilizumab to the drug combination of etoposide and dexamethasone in controlling HLH. The safety of the drug combinations will also be studied.
This is an investigational study. Alemtuzumab, etoposide, tocilizumab, and dexamethasone are not FDA approved for the treatment of HLH. Etoposide is FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of testicular cancer and lung cancer. Alemtuzumab is FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Dexamethasone is a steroid used to reduce inflammation. Tocilizumab is FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of arthritis. The combination of alemtuzumab, etoposide, tocilizumab, and dexamethasone to treat HLH is investigational. The study doctor can explain how the drugs are designed to work. | Phase 2 | Recruiting | Drug: Alemtuzumab|Drug: Etoposide|Drug: Dexamethasone|Drug: Methotrexate|Behavioral: Phone Call|Drug: Tocilizumab | University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, Texas, United States | More Information |
Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Emapalumab in Primary Haemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis | The purpose of this study is to expand the knowledge on the efficacy and safety of emapalumab (previously known as NI-0501) as a treatment for primary haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) patients, with special focus on long-term outcome and quality of life assessments. Emapalumab can be administered as the first-line therapy, to patients not previously treated with the current standard of care, or can be given to patients who have either failed or were unable to tolerate the available standard of care. | Phase 3 | Active, not recruiting | Drug: Emapalumab | Phoenix Children Hospital, Phoenix, Arizona, United States|Children's Hospital Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California, United States|Children's Hospital Colorado, Aurora, Colorado, United States|Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children - Nemours Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders - Division of Pediatric Hematology Oncology, Wilmington, Delaware, United States|Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, Atlanta, Georgia, United States|Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI), Boston, Massachusetts, United States|Spectrum Health Helen Devos Children's Hospital, Grand Rapids, Michigan, United States|Cincinnati Children's Hospital, Cincinnati, Ohio, United States|Texas Children's Cancer Center, Houston, Texas, United States|Seattle Children's Hospital, Seattle, Washington, United States|Hopital Ste-Justine Research Center, Montréal, Canada|Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, Canada|Children's and Women's Health Centre of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada|Universitätsklinikum Essen, Essen, Germany|Medical Center- University of Freiburg, Freiburg, Germany|Universitätsklinikum Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany|Istituto Giannina Gaslini, Genova, Italy|Fondazione MBBM, Ospedale San Gerardo, Monza, Italy|Ospedale Pediatrico Bambino Gesu, Rome, Italy|Ospedale della Donna e del Bambino, Verona, Italy|Hospital Universitario Vall d'Hebron, Barcelona, Spain|Hospital Universitario Niño Jesús, Madrid, Spain|Karolinska University Hospital Huddinge, Stockholm, Sweden|University Children's Hospital Zurich, Zürich, Switzerland|Leeds Children Hospital, Leeds, United Kingdom|Great Ormond Street Hospital, London, United Kingdom|Royal Manchester Children's Hospital, Manchester, United Kingdom | More Information |
Immune Disorder HSCT Protocol | This study hypothesizes that a reduced intensity immunosuppressive preparative regimen will establish engraftment of donor hematopoietic cells with acceptable early and delayed toxicity in patients with immune function disorders. A regimen that maximizes host immune suppression is expected to reduce graft rejection and optimize donor cell engraftment.

Etoposide in Patients With COVID-19 Infection | This is a randomized, open-label phase II study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of etoposide in patients with the 2019 novel coronavirus (COVID-19) infection. Randomization will be performed with a 3:1 allocation ratio. Treatment will be comprised of etoposide administered intravenously at a dose of 150 mg/m2 on Days 1 and 4 in patients with COVID-19 infection meeting eligibility criteria. Subsequent doses of etoposide will be allowed if the investigator and treating physician believe the patient had clinical benefit from etoposide therapy but subsequently has evidence of recurrent clinical deterioration. Subjects randomized to control will receive standard of care treatment. No placebo will be used. | Phase 2 | Active, not recruiting | Drug: Etoposide | Boston Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, United States | More Information |

Treosulfan and Fludarabine Phosphate Before Donor Stem Cell Transplant in Treating Patients With Nonmalignant Inherited Disorders | This phase II clinical trial studies how well treosulfan and fludarabine phosphate with or without low dose radiation before donor stem cell transplantation works in treating patients with nonmalignant (noncancerous) diseases. Although effective in curing the patient's disease, many hematopoietic cell transplantation regimens use intensive chemotherapy and/or radiation which can be quite toxic, have significant side effects, and can potentially be life-threatening. Investigators are investigating whether a new conditioning regimen that uses less intensive drugs (treosulfan and fludarabine phosphate) with or without low dose radiation results in new blood-forming cells (engraftment) of the new donor cells without increased toxicities in patients with nonmalignant (noncancerous) diseases. | Phase 2 | Active, not recruiting | Procedure: Allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplantation|Biological: Anti-Thymocyte Globulin|Drug: Cyclosporine|Drug: Fludarabine Phosphate|Other: Laboratory Biomarker Analysis|Drug: Methotrexate|Drug: Mycophenolate Mofetil|Procedure: Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation|Drug: Tacrolimus|Radiation: Total-Body Irradiation|Drug: Treosulfan|Procedure: Umbilical Cord Blood Transplantation | Children's Hospital Colorado, Aurora, Colorado, United States|Oregon Health and Science University, Portland, Oregon, United States|Vanderbilt University/Ingram Cancer Center, Nashville, Tennessee, United States|Seattle Children's Hospital, Seattle, Washington, United States|Fred Hutch/University of Washington Cancer Consortium, Seattle, Washington, United States|Children's Hospital of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States | More Information |
