MT2022-30: A double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, interventional, multicenter, phase llI clinical trial to investigate the safety and efficacy of ABCB5-positive mesenchymal stromal cells (ABCB5+ MSCs) on epidermolysis bullosa (EB)", allo-APZ2-EB-III

This is a study of an investigational drug (also known as the “study drug”) called allo-APZ2-OTS as a possible treatment for RDEB. The study drug contains allogeneic dermal ABCB5-positive mesenchymal stromal cells (ABCB5+ MSCs). These cells suppress inflammation and produce proteins that are important for wound healing. The study drug is expected to counteract local inflammation, improve wound healing and skin strength, and speed up wound closure.

A Phase III, Multicentre, Randomised, Double-Blind Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Emactuzumab vs. Placebo in Subjects with Tenosynovial Giant Cell Tumour (TANGENT)

We are conducting research on a new drug called emactuzumab. Emactuzumab is a new type of monoclonal antibody. An antibody is a protein produced by the body’s immune system to detect harmful substances. A monoclonal antibody is an artificially created protein that acts like a human antibody. Each antibody is specific for a single substance. Emactuzumab antibodies are aimed at blocking a type of protein called “CSF-1 receptors” from being able to work and to stop a tumor from growing. We will also examine how long this response will last, the impact on movement and quality of life. We will also examine whether participants need surgery during treatment with emactuzumab. In this study, we will also examine the safety of emactuzumab.

MT2022-44 Analysis of Autoinflammation in Chronic Granulomatous Disease Patients Undergoing Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation or Gene Therapy (PIDTC 6908)

CGD disorders are a group of diseases that cause the immune system to function abnormally, leading to infections, autoimmunity and/or inflammation that can begin early in life. CGD is usually caused by changes in certain genes in DNA. Researchers are trying to learn what types of medical problems patients with CGD have and how these respond to treatment, including bone marrow transplantation and gene therapy. Researchers also want to learn which genes cause CGD and how specific gene abnormalities lead to medical problems.

A Phase 3 open-label, controlled, randomised, multi-centre trial comparing imlifidase and standard-of-care with standard-of-care alone in the treatment of severe anti-GBM antibody disease (Goodpasture disease) (GOOD-IDES-02)

The purpose of the trial is to evaluate the effect and safety of imlifidase when given to participants with antiGBM disease (also called Goodpasture disease). We will study if the addition of imlifidase to the standard of care treatment results in a better effect without causing unacceptable side effects compared to standard of care alone.

MT2021-24: A Phase I Open Label Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of ISP-001 in Adult Patients with Mucopolysaccharidosis Type I Hurler-Scheie and Scheie

The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of a new procedure to treat Mucopolysaccharidosis Type I Hurler-Scheie and Scheie (MPS I). This procedure involves collecting some white blood cells (termed “B cells”) and growing them outside of the body in a laboratory. While the cells are in the lab, the B cells will be changed to produce more of the IDUA that is missing. This process is called “genetic modification.” The newly modified B cells are then infused back into the participant.

A Phase III, Randomized, Double-blind, Parallel-group, Placebo-controlled Study to evaluate the Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, Efficacy, and Safety of IV anifrolumab in Pediatric Participants 5 to < 18 Years of Age with Moderate to Severe Active Systemic Lupus Erythematosus While on Background Standard of Care Therapy (BLOSSOM)

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease that can affect various organs of the body, especially the skin, joints, blood, kidneys and central nervous system. "Chronic" means that it can last for a long time. "Autoimmune" means that there is a disorder of the immune system, which, instead of protecting the body from bacteria and viruses, attacks the one’s own tissues. We are doing this study to see if the investigational medication called anifrolumab may have an effect in treating pediatric SLE, to see how well it is tolerated or how safe it is, to measure levels of anifrolumab in the blood and learn more about the disease and associated health problems.

BEAM-101 is an experimental new therapy being developed for treating people with SCD and vaso-occlusive crises. The goal of this study is to see if BEAM-101 is safe and effective for people in the study. The study sponsor and study doctors would also like to see if individuals who are treated with BEAM-101 require fewer blood transfusions and experience fewer vasoocclusive crises requiring hospitalization, compared to before they received BEAM-101. This study will also measure the levels of fetal hemoglobin along with measures that assess quality of life and ability to function following treatment with BEAM-101.

Strength and Muscle Related Outcomes for Nutrition and Lung Function in CF (STRONG-CF)

There are currently two main ways of measuring nutrition in the Cystic Fibrosis (CF) population: body mass index (BMI) and laboratory values. This study plans to look at more ways to measure nutrition, and body composition, like the percentages of fat, bone and muscle in your body. One of the ways we will measure these items is by using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan, which is a type of x-ray. This study hopes to provide researchers with more detailed information about nutrition and body composition in adults with CF.

A RANDOMIZED, DOUBLE-BLIND, PLACEBO-CONTROLLED PHASE 3 STUDY OF VE303 FOR PREVENTION OF RECURRENT CLOSTRIDIOIDES DIFFICILE INFECTION: THE RESTORATIVE303 STUDY (RESTORATiVE303)

The purpose of RESTORATiVE303 is to see if the study drug, which is called VE303, is safe and effective in preventing another episode of Clostridioides Difficile Infection (CDI). VE303 is an investigational drug that has 8 strains of live bacteria, called “commensals.” Commensals are the type of bacteria that live in harmony with the body, without harming health. These specific bacteria are often found in the intestines of normal, healthy people. They were selected for inclusion in VE303 because they rarely infect humans (mostly in very weakened patients), they do not carry any toxins that can make one sick, and they are not known to carry any risk of creating or spreading resistance to antibiotics.
