A Study of the Safety and Tolerance of Long-Term Therapy With Intravenous Cytovene (Ganciclovir Sodium) for Cytomegalovirus Retinitis in Persons With AIDS
Completed
Hoffmann-La Roche
N/A
1969-12-31
To evaluate the safety and tolerance of long-term ganciclovir (DHPG) therapy for newly
diagnosed macular threatening Cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis in AIDS patients. To evaluate
the clinical response to a 52 week course of intravenous DHPG therapy. To evaluate the safety
and tolerance of long-term DHPG with concurrent treatment with zidovudine (AZT). (Patients
utilizing treatment with other anti-retroviral drugs will be considered for study entry on a
case by case basis.) To determine survival in this group of patients with AIDS and CMV
retinitis.
T-Lymphocyte Infusion or Standard Therapy in Treating Patients at Risk of Cytomegalovirus Infection After a Donor Stem Cell Transplant
Unknown status
University Hospital Birmingham
Phase 2
2009-09-01
RATIONALE: An infusion of cytomegalovirus-specific T lymphocytes may prevent or reduce
cytomegalovirus infection during the first year after a donor stem cell transplant.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying T-lymphocyte infusion to see how well it
works compared with standard therapy in treating patients at risk of cytomegalovirus
infection after a donor stem cell transplant.
