Thiotepa Incorporating TBI/Cy Conditioning Regimen for EBV-HLH With Central Nervous System Involvement
A study testing Thiotepa in people with HLH, run by Beijing Friendship Hospital at 1 site in China.
Trial summary
EBV-HLH is the most common in virus-associated hemophagocytic syndrome (VAHS). There are no uniform clinical criteria for the diagnosis of CNS-HLH. And there is still a lack of international consensus on the treatment for CNS-HLH. Following allogeneic HSCT after HLH induction therapy is recommended for CNS-HLH. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Thiotepa Incorporating TBI/Cy Conditioning Regimen Followed by HSCT for EBV-HLH With Central Nervous System Involvement: a Prospective Single-arm Clinical Study
EBV-HLH is the most common in virus-associated hemophagocytic syndrome (VAHS). There are no uniform clinical criteria for the diagnosis of CNS-HLH. And there is still a lack of international consensus on the treatment for CNS-HLH. Following allogeneic HSCT after HLH induction therapy is recommended for CNS-HLH. One of the major factors influencing the transplantation effect is conditioning. Therefore, we conduct a prospective clinical study to explore the efficacy and safety of thiotepa incorporating TBI/Cy conditioning regimen followed by allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for EBV-HLH with central nervous system involvement.
Read the detailed description
HLH is an immune disorder characterized by a potentially fatal cytokine storm induced by uncontrolled T lymphocyte and macrophage activation. EBV-HLH is the most common in virus-associated hemophagocytic syndrome (VAHS). There are no uniform clinical criteria for the diagnosis of CNS-HLH. And there is still a lack of international consensus on the treatment for CNS-HLH. CNS involvement is one of the factors in the poor prognosis for HLH. Following allogeneic HSCT after HLH induction therapy is recommended for CNS-HLH. One of the major factors influencing the transplantation effect is conditioning. Therefore, we conduct a prospective clinical study to explore the efficacy and safety of thiotepa incorporating TBI/Cy conditioning regimen followed by allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for EBV-HLH with central nervous system involvement.
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
ThiotepaDrug
Also called TT
Thiotepa is an alkylating agent that is routinely used in solid tumors, but it is able to cross the blood-brain barrier into the center.
