Description

Summary

This study is an access and distribution protocol for unlicensed cryopreserved cord blood units (CBUs) in pediatric and adult patients with hematologic malignancies and other indications.

Official Title

A Multicenter Access and Distribution Protocol for Unlicensed Cryopreserved Cord Blood Units (CBUs) for Transplantation in Pediatric and Adult Patients With Hematologic Malignancies and Other Indications

Details

Principal Investigators:

The principal investigators (PIs) will be transplant physicians at all participating U.S. transplant centers.

Study Design:

This study is an access and distribution protocol for unlicensed cryopreserved cord blood units (CBUs) in pediatric and adult patients with hematologic malignancies and other indications.

Primary Objective:

The primary objective of this study is to examine the incidence of neutrophil recovery of ≥500/mm3 after cord blood transplantation in a multi-institution setting using CBUs that are not Food and Drug Administration (FDA) licensed.

Secondary Objectives:

In patients receiving a non-licensed CBU:

  • Assess incidence of transmission of infection
  • Assess incidence of serious infusion reaction
  • Determine 1 year overall survival after cord blood transplantation
  • Assess cumulative incidence of acute graft vs. host disease (GVHD) grades II to IV and grades III to IV
  • Assess cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD
  • Determine platelet engraftment of >20,000 mcL and >50,000 mcL

Lead Scientists at UC Health

  • Edward Ball, MD (ucsd)
    Dr. Ball’s research focuses on the development of monoclonal antibody (mAb)-targeted immunotherapy and its translation to the treatment of patients with malignancy. His lab produced mAbs to myeloid-associated antigens expressed on myeloid leukemia cells.

    Professor-in-Residence, Medicine. Authored (or co-authored) 74 research publications.
  • Mark Walters, MD (ucsf)
    The over-arching goal of my research career has been to develop and expand curative therapies for hemoglobin disorders in particular and non-malignant hematopoietic disorders more broadly. I have focused on genome editing approaches most recently, which rely upon modification of autologous hematopoietic cells to elicit a curative effect.
