Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This clinical trial tests the effect of low-intensity mechanical stimulation (LIMS) vibration therapy in patients with hematologic malignancies. Patients with hematologic malignancies often undergo a blood and/or bone marrow transplant (hematopoietic cell transplantation \[HCT\]) or cellular therapy. The LIMS board delivers vibrations through the bones that may stimulate bone growth and may also increase muscle activity and strength and may also increase T-cell activation in patients planning to undergo cellular therapy. LIMS vibration therapy may stop or reverse BMD loss and/or improve the development of T-cells in the body in patients with hematologic malignancies who are undergoing or may plan to undergo HCT or cellular therapies.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. Determine the feasibility of delivering a low-intensity mechanical stimulation (LIMS) program immediately following hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). COHORT 1 II. II. Evaluate chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) T-cell product efficacy of Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) patients undergoing LIMS in comparison to patients not treated with LIMS. COHORT II

SECONDARY OBJECTIVE:

I. Determine the effect size of a LIMS program on bone marrow density (BMD) post-HCT.

COHORT 1 II. Evaluate the manufacturing parameters (product viability, total cell dose, transduction efficiency, time to produce the CAR T-cell product) pre- and post-LIMS. COHORT II

OUTLINE:

Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 cohorts.

COHORT 1 - Patients undergo LIMS vibration therapy over 10-minutes once a day on study. Treatment begins day -8 to -1 during admission for HCT and until day 180 using the LIMS board at home. Patients also undergo dual x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scan at follow up and may optionally undergo blood sample collection at baseline and follow up.

COHORT II: Patients undergo LIMS vibration therapy over 10-minutes twice daily (BID) for 14 days on study. Patients also undergo blood sample collection throughout the trial
