NCT05787574

Brief Summary

The researchers are doing this study to find out whether emapalumab or a combination of fludarabine and dexamethasone are effective in preparing people with a primary immune regulatory disorder (PIRD) and/or an autoinflammatory condition to receive a stem cell transplant. The researchers will look at how well the study treatments reduce inflammation and aid in the engraftment process (the process of donated stem cells traveling to the bone marrow, where they begin to make new immune cells.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Engraftment

    Engraftment is defined as the first of three days of absolute neutrophil count \>500,000/µL and the first of seven days of platelets \>20,000/µL in the absence of transfusional support.

    Day 100 post-alloHCT

Secondary Outcomes (18)

  • Overall Survival (OS)

    1 year

  • Event Free Survival (EFS)

    Up to 2 years post-alloHCT

  • Non-Relapse Mortality (TRM)

    1 year

  • GVHD free/relapse free survival (GRFS)

    1 year

  • Chronic graft vs host disease/relapse free survival (CRFS)

    1 year

  • +13 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Group A: Emapalumab (for isolated Interferongamma mediated disease)

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants in this group will receive emapalumab on Days -22 (22 days before the day of the stem cell transplant), -15, -8, and -1.

Drug: EmapalumabProcedure: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (allo-HCT)

Group B: Fludarabine and Dexamethasone (for generalized autoinflammation)

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants in this group will receive fludarabine and dexamethasone for 5 days in a row on Days -22 through -18.

Drug: Fludarabine and DexamethasoneProcedure: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (allo-HCT)

Interventions

Emapalumab on Days -22 (22 days before the day of the stem cell transplant), -15, -8, and -1.

Also known as: Gamifant
Group A: Emapalumab (for isolated Interferongamma mediated disease)

Fludarabine and dexamethasone for 5 days in a row on Days -22 through -18.

Group B: Fludarabine and Dexamethasone (for generalized autoinflammation)

Participants in both groups will receive their standard-of-care stem cell transplant on Day 0.

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients receiving first allo-HCT for the following immunologic conditions:
  • Primary Immune Regulatory Disorder with or without a genetic lesion as defined by the Primary Immune Deficiency Treatment Consortium (PIDTC)12 - Patients with autoinflammatory disorders evidenced by cytokine or inflammation assays with at least 1.5x ULN of measured cytokines (defined in section 4) and/or an elevated ferritin or ESR \> 2 ULN
  • Able to tolerate cytoreduction (based on adequate organ function as described below)
  • Patients of any age can enroll so long as they meet all other eligibility criteria
  • Adequate organ function is required, defined as follows:
  • Hepatic: Serum bilirubin ≤ 2 mg/dL, unless benign congenital hyperbilirubinemia. Patients with hyperbilirubinemia related to paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria or other hemolytic disorders related to their PIRD diagnosis are eligible.
  • Hepatic: AST, ALT, and alkaline phosphatase \< 2.5 times the upper limit of normal unless thought to be disease-related. Investigator will need to perform clinically indicated evaluations to assess if disease related or intrinsic liver disease. Additional testing may be done if clinically indicated, after the pre-transplant immune prophase and prior to start of conditioning as this will provide additional data to confirm disease related versus intrinsic liver dysfunction.
  • Renal: serum creatinine \<1.5x normal for age. If serum creatinine is outside the normal range, then CrCl \> 50 mL/min/1.73m\^2 (calculated or estimated) or GFR (mL/min/1.72m\^2) \>30% of predicted normal for age.
  • Cardiac: LVEF ≥ 50% by MUGA or resting echocardiogram.
  • Pulmonary: Pulmonary function testing (FEV1 and corrected DLCO) ≥ 50% predicted (pediatric patients unable to complete PFTs will need oxygen saturation as recorded by pulse oximetry of ≥92% on room air).
  • Adequate performance status:
  • Age ≥ 16 years: ECOG ≤ 1 or Karnofsky ≥ 70%
  • Age \< 16 years: Lansky 70%
  • Each patient must be willing to participate as a research subject and must sign an informed consent form or legal guardian with assent as appropriate.
  • Related Donors:
  • +6 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Uncontrolled infection at the time of enrollment.
  • Patients who have undergone previous allo-HCT.
  • Patient seropositivity for HIV I/II and/or HTLV I/II.
  • Females who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Patients unwilling to use contraception during the study period.
  • Patient or parent or guardian unable to give informed consent or unable to comply with the treatment protocol including research tests.
