Summary

This study is for patients who have been diagnosed with multiple myeloma. The investigational drug in this study is idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel). The purpose of this study is to provide the investigational drug as a possible cancer treatment that would otherwise be unavailable. Patients can expect to have about 8 clinic visits and to be in this study for up to 3 months after receiving the study drug and in follow up for up to 15 years.

Summary

This study is for participants who have moderate or severe chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD). cGVHD is a condition in which the healthy transplanted (graft) stem cells see the recipient's (host) cells as foreign and start to destroy them.
This Study is being done to learn the effects of the drug INCA034176 (also known as axatilimab) in combination with corticosteroids.

Accelerated, Left Prefrontal Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Functional Seizures; An Open-Label Exploration of Feasibility, Tolerability, and Preliminary Efficacy

Summary

As growing research suggests noninvasive brain stimulation techniques have the potential to adjunct current treatments or treat Seizure-Type Functional Neurologic Disorder (FND-seiz), also known as Psychogenic Non-Epileptic Seizures (PNES), we aim to evaluate whether a form of accelerated intermittent theta burst transcranial magnetic stimulation (a-iTBS-rTMS), is a practical and well-tolerated treatment for people with this disorder. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation or TMS uses magnetic pulses to stimulate a part of the brain involved in mood and thinking, the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, which has established benefits in disorders known to coincide in patients with FND-seiz, such as depression.

As an open-label, early feasibility study, enrolled participants will receive 6 to 10 treatment sessions each day over 3 to 5 days, with the goal of completing 30 total sessions. This approach was selected because similar protocols have already been shown to be safe and effective in other conditions, and the shortened treatment schedule in comparison to other protocols may make participation easier for people living with FND-seiz. The main goal of the study is to see how many participants can safely and comfortably complete at least 20 of the 30 TMS sessions.

The researchers will also evaluate changes in seizure frequency, quality of life, mood, post-traumatic stress symptoms, physical health, social functioning, and overall satisfaction with treatment. These outcomes will be measured before treatment and again four weeks afterward. The researchers also aim to explore whether people with overlapping conditions, such as depression or PTSD, respond differently to the treatment. Finally, given the overlap between epilepsy and FND-seiz, not all TMS providers are comfortable treating patients with FND-seiz when TMS is indicated for other conditions, thus the researchers aim to outline a protocol to ensure safety and increase TMS access for FND-seiz patients.

Phase 1b Dose Expansion Study of NXC-201 for the Treatment of Patients with Relapsed or Refractory AL Amyloidosis

Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of NXC-201 at different doses in participants with relapsed/refractory AL amyloidosis, and to confirm the best dose for further testing. In addition, the study will evaluate the effectiveness of NXC-201 in treating relapsed/refractory AL amyloidosis.

AL amyloidosis is a rare systemic disorder caused by an abnormality of plasma cells (a type of white blood cell that is part of the immune system) in the bone marrow. Misfolded proteins produced by these cells can build up in and around tissues, nerves and organs, gradually affecting their function. This can cause progressive and widespread organ damage.

NXC-201 is made using a person's own T Cells (immune system cells that protect the body from infections, cancer, and other possible harms). The T cells are collected then genetically modified (changes are made to the DNA or genes) outside of the body in a laboratory. A virus is used to introduce a gene that creates a protein (called a chimeric antigen receptor or CAR) on the surface of T cells. The virus then becomes inactive. The changes are designed to help the NXC-201 cells find and destroy plasma cells that have a protein on their surface called B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA). T-cell therapies like NXC-201 are called CAR T-cell therapies. After being reinjected, the CAR-T cells multiply and spread throughout the body.

NXC-201 is an investigational "treatment", which means it has not been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of AL Amyloidosis or any other disease.

Calling the study drug a "treatment" in this consent form does not indicate that it will be effective in treating your AL Amyloidosis.

Before receiving NXC-201, participants will receive lymphodepleting chemotherapy (or lymphodepletion) with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine to briefly weaken (suppress) your immune system. The lymphodepletion will help prepare the body for receiving NXC-201. Cyclophosphamide and fludarabine are FDA-approved for use as lymphodepleting chemotherapy.

This study is sponsored by Nexcella, Inc., which is responsible for funding and organizing the study.
