WALDENSTROM MACROGLOBULINEMIA

This study tested the drug carfilzomib in 7 people with Waldenström's macroglobulinemia, a rare blood cancer, that had returned after previous treatment. The goal was to see if the drug could shrink tumors and control the cancer. Carfilzomib works by blocking a protein that helps…

This study tested different doses of the drug lenalidomide in 17 people with Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia, a rare blood cancer, whose disease had come back or stopped responding to prior treatments. The main goal was to find a safe dose by tracking side effects. Researchers also…

This study tested different drug combinations to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in 174 people with blood cancers receiving stem cells from an unrelated donor. GVHD is a serious side effect where donor cells attack the patient's body. The goal was to find which drug regi…

This study tested a drug called zanubrutinib in 96 people with certain types of B-cell lymphoma (like chronic lymphocytic leukemia or mantle cell lymphoma) who had bad side effects from similar drugs like ibrutinib or acalabrutinib. The main goal was to see if zanubrutinib causes…

This early-phase study tested whether the oral antibiotic rifaximin can reduce abnormal proteins in people with monoclonal gammopathy, a condition that can lead to blood cancers. Fifty adults with different types of gammopathy took the drug to see if it lowered their immunoglobul…

This study tested an oral drug called LOXO-305 (pirtobrutinib) in 803 people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, small lymphocytic lymphoma, or other non-Hodgkin lymphomas whose cancer had stopped responding to or could not tolerate standard treatments. The goal was to find the be…

This early-phase trial tested a new drug called BR101801 in 26 adults with advanced blood cancers like lymphoma and leukemia that had not responded to other treatments. The main goals were to find a safe dose and check for side effects. The study was completed, but results are no…

This study looked at whether the COVID-19 vaccine triggers a strong immune response in people with multiple myeloma or Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, two types of blood cancer. About 146 adults took part, and researchers measured their antibody levels 28 days after the final va…

This study looked at whether blood or urine tests can accurately detect genetic mutations linked to Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (WM) and a related condition, IgM-MGUS. Researchers compared results from these non-invasive tests with the standard bone marrow biopsy in 300 parti…

This study followed 16 people who had already received a special immune cell treatment (CLBR001 CAR-T) for various types of B-cell blood cancers like lymphoma and leukemia. The goal was to check for any new or long-term side effects that might appear months or years after treatme…
