This requires understanding the safety and tolerability of the study drug (how the body reacts to linvoseltamab) as well as the effectiveness of the study drug (how well linvoseltamab eliminates plasma cells). All participants will start treatment with gradually increasing doses of linvoseltamab (step-up doses) before they start receiving the assigned full dose. The study is split into 2 parts: * In Part 1, separate groups of 3-6 patients will receive different full doses of linvoseltamab to evaluate the short-term side effects (safety) and tolerability of the study drug within the first 5 weeks after starting treatment. The data collected will help to make a decision about the dosing regimens chosen for Part 2. * In Part 2, a larger number of participants will be randomized to different dosing regimens to further assess the side effects of linvoseltamab, and to evaluate the ability of linvoseltamab to eliminate abnormal plasma cells in HR-MGUS and NHR-SMM. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: * How many participants treated with linvoseltamab have improvement of their HR-MGUS or NHR-SMM? * What side effects may happen from taking the study drug? * How much study drug is in the blood at different times? * Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects). |

Advanced forms of these diseases are difficult to treat. CD19 is a protein often found on the surfaces of these cancer cells. Researchers can modify a person’s own immune cells (T cells) to target CD19. When these modified T cells are returned to the body-a treatment called anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy-they may help kill cancer cells. Objective: To test anti-CD19 CAR T cell therapy in people with CLL or SLL. Eligibility: People aged 18 years and older with CLL or SLL that has not been controlled with standard drugs. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have imaging scans and tests of their heart function. If a sample of tissue from their tumor is not available, a new one may be taken; the sample will be tested for CD19. Participants will receive a drug to reduce the leukemia cells in their blood. Then they will undergo apheresis: Blood will be taken from the body through a needle. The blood will pass through a machine that separates out the T cells. The remaining blood will be returned to the body through a different needle. The collected T cells will be gene edited to make them attack cells with CD19. Participants will take drugs to prepare them for treatment for 3 days. These drugs will start 5 days before the treatment. Then their own modified CAR T cells will be returned to their bloodstream. Participants will stay in the hospital for at least 9 days after the treatment. Follow-up visits will continue for 5 years. |

CAR T cells are a type of treatment in which a patient’s T cells (a type of immune system cell) are changed in the laboratory so they will attack cancer cells. T cells are taken from a patient’s blood. Then the gene for a special receptor that binds to a certain protein on the patient’s cancer cells is added in the laboratory. The special receptor is called CAR. Large numbers of the CAR T cells are grown in the laboratory and given to the patient by infusion. Vaccines such as CMV-MVA triplex are made from gene-modified viruses and may help the body build an effective immune response to kill cancer cells. Giving CMV-specific CD19-CAR T-cells plus the CMV-MVA triplex vaccine may help prevent the cancer from coming back. |

187 | Pilot/Feasibility Study of CMV-Specific CD19-CAR T Cells Plus CMV-MVA Triplex Following Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Patients With Intermediate or High Grade B-Lineage Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (B-NHL) PF:2 Related Papers Related Patents Related Grants Related Experts View Highlight: This phase I trial studies the safety and side effects of cytomegalovirus (CMV) specific CD19-chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells along with the CMV-modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA) triplex vaccine following a stem cell transplant in treating patients with high grade B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. CAR T-cells are a type of treatment in which a patient’s T-cells (a type of immune system cell) are changed in the laboratory so they will attack cancer cells. T-cells are taken from a patient’s blood. Then the gene for a special receptor that binds to a certain protein on the patient’s cancer cells is added in the laboratory. The special receptor is called a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). Large numbers of the CAR T-cells are grown in the laboratory and given to the patient by infusion. Vaccines such as CMV-MVA triplex are made from gene-modified viruses and may help the body build an effective immune response to kill cancer cells. Giving CMV-specific CD19-CAR T-cells plus the CMV-MVA triplex vaccine following a stem cell transplant may help prevent the cancer from coming back. |

304 | Discontinuation of Antiviral Therapy As A Strategy to Cure Hepatitis B PF:2 Related Papers Related Patents Related Grants Related Experts View Highlight: Cirrhosis or cancer of the liver caused by hepatitis B virus (HBV) are major global health problems. Chronic HBV infection has become more common in Sweden with immigration. The risk of cancer and the availability of effective antivirals has led to more and more people receiving long-term treatment with antiviral drugs. The disadvantages of this treatment are that it does not have a defined duration and that it very rarely leads to the cure. Several published studies suggest that a large proportion of patients who discontinue antiviral therapy after at least three years may achieve lasting cure of the infection or at least do not need to resume treatment. The mechanism of this effect is not known, but it is thought to be due to the fact that the immune response, which is activated when the amount of virus increases after the end of treatment, becomes more effective in eradicating infected liver cells than it was before starting treatment. As a consequence of these findings updated guidelines for treatment of hepatitis B state that for patients that have received nucleoside analogue treatment for \> 3 years, discontinuation is an accepted therapeutic alternative. The purpose of the planned study is to investigate the results of discontinued treatment, in terms of clinical outcome as well as immunological and virological mechanisms. The aim is to include 120 patients at four regional infectious diseases clinics (in Gothenburg, Borås, Skövde and Trollhättan), of which 90 will be randomized to discontinue and 30 to continue antiviral treatment. Blood samples will be taken regularly to monitor the outcome and for detailed studies of viral antigens and nucleic acid in the blood and for specific analyzes of the cells of the immune system. The goal is to understand why the discontinued treatment in some patients activates an effective immune response and how such an effect can be predicted even before or early after the treatment is stopped. |

The efficacy of DAA-based therapy can depend on patient-related factors such as treatment experience, cirrhosis, but also on viral genotype. The high prevalence of genotype 3, which is considered difficult to cure, remains a challenge because many oral DAAs are less effective for this genotype, particularly subtype 3b than for others. Current guidance generally recommends sofosbuvir (SOF)/velpatasvir (VEL) ± ribavirin (RBV), glecaprevir/pibrentasvir and SOF/VEL/voxilaprevir (VOX) as first-line therapy for genotype 3, and an interferon-based regimen – … |

495 | Shandong Provincial Integrated Traditional Chinese and Clinical Medicine(Chronic Hepatitis B and Its Complication) Prevention and Treatment Project PF:3 Related Papers Related Patents Related Grants Related Experts View Highlight: Hepatic encephalopathy is the most common complication after TIPS, and hepatic encephalopathy occurs in almost all portosystemic shunts. For patients with severe upper gastrointestinal bleeding or refractory ascites in the decompensated chronic hepatitis B, transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is a very effective treatment. However, due to the severe complications such as hepatic encephalopathy after TIPS, the clinical application of TIPS is limited. Literature studies have shown that the incidence of encephalopathy after TIPS is about 35%. TIPS reduces the portal vena blood flow into the liver by establishing a new channel.
