MS patients with active relapsing disease comparing two treatment plans
This Phase 3 study compares the best standard MS treatment (chosen by your doctors) versus an approach called autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant (AHSCT) for people with highly active, treatment-resistant relapsing multiple sclerosis. It aims to see which option controls MS disease activity better and keeps you safer over time.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18–55 - NCT03670966RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted iodine therapy, then donor transplant for hard leukemias
This trial tests an antibody-linked radioactive iodine treatment, followed by a donor stem cell transplant, for people with relapsed or refractory high-risk acute leukemia or certain MDS. It may help patients by targeting leukemia cells and then using a new immune system to control the disease.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18–75 - NCT06888973Enrolling by invitationPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cell infusion for autoimmune diseases
This clinical trial is testing if infusions of special stem cells (called mesenchymal stem cells) can help people with certain autoimmune diseases where standard treatments have not worked well enough. It is an early-phase study in Pakistan for adults (and some children for one condition) with rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, systemic sclerosis, ankylosing spondylitis, or dermatomyositis/polymyositis.
RawalpindiAges 18–50 - NCT06505135Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
