Brief Summary

The goal of the Precision Diagnosis in Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Cellular Therapies, and Transplantation (PREDICT) trial is to apply a systems-biology approach to enable precision diagnostics for the key immunologic outcomes for patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Cellular Therapeutics and Transplantation. This approach will deepen the understanding of the molecular mechanisms driving auto- and allo-immune diseases and serve as a critical platform upon which to design evidence-based treatment paradigms for these patients. This research study will examine the immunology of auto- and allo-immune gastrointestinal disturbances such as Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), Graft-versus-Host Disease (GVHD), and Functional Gastrointestinal Disorder (FGID), as well as the immune manifestations after CAR-T and other cellular therapeutics. The Investigators seek to use blood and tissue samples in order to better understand the mechanisms driving these diseases and their therapies. The Investigators further hypothesize that longitudinal systems-based immunologic analysis will enable the patient-specific determination of the molecular evolution of IBD, GVHD and the response to cellular therapeutics, as well post-transplant defects in protective immunity, and determine which pathways, when perturbed, can cause clinical disease. The discovery of these pathways will lead to improved diagnostic, prognostic and treatment approaches, and to personalized therapeutic decision-making for these patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Perform flow cytometry, TCR deep sequencing and whole transcriptome analysis on T cells purified from GI endoscopy samples taken for presumed GI GVHD, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and functional gastrointestinal disease (FGID).

    To identify the mechanisms specific for auto-immune and allo-immune GI disorders.

    1 year

  • Perform flow cytometry, TCR deep sequencing and transcriptome analysis on T cells from the peripheral blood in patients diagnosed with GI GVHD, IBD and FGID and patients receiving cellular therapies.

    To identify the mechanisms specific for allo- and auto-immune diseases and the consequences of cellular therapy delivery.

    1 year

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Perform longitudinal immune analysis on T cells and B cells purified from patients with allo- and auto-immune diseases and those receiving cellular immunotherapies.

    1 year

  • Perform microbiome analysis longitudinally in patients with auto- and allo-immune diseases.

    1 year

  • Perform longitudinal immune analysis on T- and B-cells as well as measurements of serum antibody titers from patients with allo- and auto-immune disorders who receive immunization against COVID-19.

    1 year

Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

HCT, Cellular Therapy and Non-HCT patients undergoing endoscopy (patients with IBD and FGID) will be recruited from participating centers. This prospective banking study will continue to enroll patients undergoing HCT, endoscopy for IBD or FGID, and cellular therapy on an ongoing, long-term basis. Additional enrollment will come from patients receiving SARS-CoV-2 vaccination after HCT, solid organ transplant, active or recent malignancy or autoimmune or rheumatologic diagnoses, including patients who did not meet eligibility criteria for other cohorts. Additional patients who are healthy blood or bone marrow donors and may or may not be related to the patients with immune dysfunction or receiving HCT will also be enrolled in the study to serve as healthy controls.

You may qualify if:

  • Patients must be at least 1 month old and weigh \>/= 3 kg.
  • Patients receiving any allogeneic or autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (bone marrow, peripheral blood, or cord blood transplant).
  • Patients and/or parents or legal guardians must sign a written informed consent.
  • Weight ≥3 kg
  • Patients receiving adoptive cellular therapy
  • Patient and/or legal guardian must sign written informed consent
  • Age 18+
  • Participant does not have signs/symptoms of present illness
  • Participant does not have a known disease affecting the immune system
  • Participant is not on any medication/s that suppress immune system
  • Obtain informed consent
  • Age \>1 years of age
  • Weight \>3 kg
  • Obtain informed consent
  • Patients must be at least 6 years old and weigh \>/= 10 kg.
  • +7 more criteria
