Quality of Life-Guided Transfusion in Refractory MDS or AML
Patients with refractory myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in exclusive palliative care frequently receive red blood cell transfusions based on hemoglobin thresholds, despite limited evidence of clinical benefit in this setting. This prospective randomized study compares a standard hemoglobin-based transfusion strategy to a quality-of-life-guided strategy using the …
Efficacy of Oral Sucrosomial Iron Supplementation in Children With Celiac Disease and Iron Deficiency or Anemia
Celiac disease in children is frequently associated with iron deficiency and/or iron deficiency anemia due to intestinal malabsorption and chronic inflammation. Although a gluten-free diet is the standard treatment and can restore iron balance over time, there is currently no clear evidence or consensus on the role and timing of …
Molecular Biology of Polycythemia and Thrombocytosis
Our study is designed to characterize the clinical picture and genetic pattern of Polycythemia and Thrombocytosis. The purpose of this project is to find a gene and its mutation that causes these disorders. When this is accomplished, new therapies to control and eventually cure the disorder can be designed.
Variation of Echocardiographic Parameters After Red Blood Cell Transfusion in Emergency Department Anemic Patients
The goal of this interventional study is to asses echocardiographic variations in emergency department's elderly patients receiving red blood cell transfusion. The main questions it aims to answer are : is there a modification of echocardiographic parameters after red blood cell transfusion ? which parameter is the most impacted by …
Infusion of Cell Populations From Unlicensed Umbilical Cord Blood Units
For the next 5-10 years or possibly longer, a high proportion of the Cord Blood Banks (CBB) inventory worldwide will be composed of unlicensed umbilical cord blood (UCB) units. While Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-licensed units will be prioritized, it will always be possible that an unlicensed unit will have …
A Study to Compare Elritercept to Placebo in Adults With Myelofibrosis and Anemia Who Are Taking Ruxolitinib
The main aim of this study is to find out how well elritercept works to improve anemia in participants with myelofibrosis (MF) who are taking ruxolitinib when compared to placebo. Other aims are to learn how elritercept improves anemia compared to placebo; to learn if elritercept reduces tiredness, improves symptoms …
FGF23 and Cardiovascular Damage in Anemia With an Without Chronic Kidney Disease.
Anemia is associated with cardiovascular disease. Iron deficiency is usually induced in chronic kidney disease (CKD). In clinical studies, an inverse association between serum levels of iron and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), a cardiovascular risk factor, has been demonstrated. In addition, a number of the I.V. iron presentations mostly …
Delayed Versus Immediate Cord Clamping in Preterm Birth
The goal of this study is to evaluate whether delayed cord clamping improves early neonatal outcomes compared with immediate clamping in preterm birth. Preterm infants are at higher risk of neonatal complications, and the timing of cord clamping may influence placental transfusion and neonatal adaptation after birth. Delayed cord clamping …
A Study to Compare Elritercept With Epoetin Alfa to Treat Anemia in Adults With Very Low, Low, or Intermediate Risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) Who Need Regular Blood Transfusions
The main aim of this study is to assess how elritercept works in lowering the need for RBC (red blood cell) transfusions and how safe elritercept is when compared with epoetin alfa. Other aims are to learn if elritercept improves tiredness as reported by participants without needing RBC transfusion compared …
Efficacy and Safety of Luspatercept for the Treatment of Anemia Due to MDS With del5q, Refractory/Resistant/Intolerant to Prior Treatments, RBC-TD
Myelodysplastic syndromes, primarily affecting older adults, are a heterogeneous group of clonal disorders of hematopoietic stem cells characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis that manifest clinically as anemia, neutropenia, and/or thrombocytopenia of variable severity; these often result in RBC- transfusion dependent (TD) anemia, increased risk of infection, and/or hemorrhage, as well as …
