MT2023-33 A Phase II Study of Reduced Dose Post Transplantation; Cyclophosphamide as GvHD Prophylaxis in Adult Patients with Hematologic Malignancies Receiving HLA-Mismatched Unrelated Donor Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation (OPTIMIZE)
Cyclophosphamide is a chemotherapy (chemo) drug often given after a transplant to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GvHD). We are doing this study to see if a lower dose of cyclophosphamide after transplant is as safe and works just as well. This study does not include any new or untested drugs. The drugs and procedures in this study are standard for people who receive a transplant.

MT2023-30: A Phase 1 Study of FT825/ONO-8250, an Off-the-Shelf CAR T-Cell Therapy, With or Without Monoclonal Antibodies, in HER2-Positive or Other Advanced Solid Tumors
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of FT825 at different doses and to understand the way the body processes and responds to FT825. The study will also find out what effects FT825, when given with or without a monoclonal antibody (cetuximab) and different chemotherapy regimens, have on cancer. FT825 is a type of cell product made up of “T cells.” T cells are part of your immune system and are important in helping fight infections. T cells are also important in eliminating cancer cells.

MT2021-08: Phase II, Open-Label, Prospective Study of T Cell Receptor Alpha/Beta Depletion (A/B TCD) Peripheral Blood Stem Cell (PBSC) Transplantation for Children and Adults with Hematological Malignancies
The research aspect of this trial is the use of a new machine to remove specific lymphocytes from the donor’s peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs). This is called T cell receptor alpha/beta T cell depletion. This machine does such a good job at removing the unwanted donor T cells, and as a result we think patients will need fewer drugs to suppress their immune system.

MT2017-17:T Cell receptor Alpha/Beta T Cell Depleted Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in patients with Inherited Bone Marrow Failure (BMF) Disorders
The purpose of this study is to learn if removing the donor T cells from the donor product using this new method will be a better way to reduce the risk of GVHD. The benefit of removing these cells with this new method is that they will prevent GVHD without requiring drugs to suppress the immune system. Potentially, the immune system will recover from the transplant faster, which in turn will also lessen the risk of severe infections. As well, the patient will not have the other common undesired side effects of these immunosuppressive drugs.

MT2024-16: A Phase 1 Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Activity of Single Ascending Doses of SBT777101 in Subjects with Hidradenitis Suppurativa (Regulate-HS)
This research study is for people who have Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) and it is moderate or severe in intensity and have been treated with at least one conventional therapy for HS. This study involves the investigational drug SBT777101, which is created by genetically modifying a patient’s own immune cells.

A Randomized Double Blind Phase II Trial of Restorative Microbiota Therapy (RMT) or Placebo in Combination with Durvalumab (MEDI4736) and Tremelimumab With Chemotherapy in Treatment Naïve Advanced or Metastatic Adenocarcinoma Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
The investigational therapy in this study is referred to as Restorative Microbiota Therapy (RMT). It is prepared by extracting healthy bacteria from the stool of healthy human donors and making it into capsules taken by mouth. The donor stool samples are rigorously tested for harmful bacteria and viruses before processing. There is scientific evidence to suggest that RMT might make immunotherapy more effective. The primary goal of the study is to test if RMT makes durvalumab + tremelimumab treatment with chemotherapy more effective to control lung cancer.

MT2023-06: A CLINICAL STUDY TO ASSESS THE EFFICACY AND SAFETY OF LERIGLITAZONE IN ADULT MALE SUBJECTS WITH CEREBRAL ADRENOLEUKODYSTROPHY (CALYX)
This study has 2 parts: a double-blind period and an open-label extension. In the double-blind period of this study, the study medicine will be compared to a placebo. A placebo is a treatment that looks and tastes exactly like the study medicine but does not contain any active ingredient. In this study, you will receive leriglitazone or placebo. Whether you receive leriglitazone or placebo will be decided randomly (by chance, like flipping a coin). In this study, 1 out of every 2 subjects (50%) will receive leriglitazone and 1 out of every 2 subjects (50%) will receive placebo. To make this study fair, you and the study doctor will not be told which treatment you will receive, this is called “blinding”. In the open-label extension, all subjects will receive leriglitazone.

MT2021-26: Ruxolitinib for Early Lung Dysfunction after HSCT: a Phase II Study (HSCT)
While hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is an effective therapy, as many as 25% of patients develop problems with their lungs as a result of this treatment. Bronchiolitis obliterans (BO) is a type of lung injury after HSCT due to graft versus host disease. BO is commonly diagnosed late in patients, when lung injury is hard to treat and can be irreversible, leading to long-term lung disease or even death. The purpose of this research is to learn more about ruxolitinib as an early treatment for lung injury and BO after HSCT. Patients who are diagnosed with early lung dysfunction will be eligible for this research study.
