Background: Treatment of patients younger than 18 years of age with multiple sclerosis has not been adequately examined in randomized trials. We compared fingolimod with interferon beta-1a in this population.
Methods: In this phase 3 trial, we randomly assigned patients 10 to 17 years of age with relapsing multiple sclerosis in a 1:1 ratio to receive oral fingolimod at a dose of 0.
Tight Glycemic Control in Critically Ill Children.
N Engl J Med
February 2017
From the Division of Medicine Critical Care (M.S.D.A., J.L.A., G.M.S.) and the Department of Cardiology (D.W., L.A.A.), Boston Children's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston; the Division of Pediatric Critical Care, University of Utah Medical School, Primary Children's Hospital, Salt Lake City, and Intermountain Medical Center, Murray - both in Utah (E.L.H.); Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (V.S., V.M.N.) and the Perelman School of Medicine (V.S., M.A.Q.C., V.M.N.) and the School of Nursing (M.A.Q.C.), University of Pennsylvania - all in Philadelphia; Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, CT (E.V.F.); and Children's Medical Center Dallas and the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School, Dallas (P.M.L.).
Background: In multicenter studies, tight glycemic control targeting a normal blood glucose level has not been shown to improve outcomes in critically ill adults or children after cardiac surgery. Studies involving critically ill children who have not undergone cardiac surgery are lacking.
Methods: In a 35-center trial, we randomly assigned critically ill children with confirmed hyperglycemia (excluding patients who had undergone cardiac surgery) to one of two ranges of glycemic control: 80 to 110 mg per deciliter (4.
Chimeric antigen receptor T cells for sustained remissions in leukemia.
N Engl J Med
October 2014
From the Division of Oncology, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (S.L.M., R.A., D.M.B., N.J.B., S.R.R., D.T.T., S.A.G.), the Departments of Pediatrics (S.L.M., R.A., D.M.B., N.J.B., S.R.R., D.T.T., S.A.G.), Biostatistics and Epidemiology (P.A.S., R.A.), and Pathology and Laboratory Medicine (J.J.M., B.L.L., C.H.J., S.A.G.), the Division of Hematology-Oncology (N.F., D.L.P.), and Abramson Cancer Center (N.F., A.C., V.E.G., Z.Z., S.F.L., Y.D.M., J.J.M., B.L.L., C.H.J., D.L.P., S.A.G.), Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania - all in Philadelphia; and Novartis Pharmaceuticals, East Hanover, NJ (A.S.).
Background: Relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is difficult to treat despite the availability of aggressive therapies. Chimeric antigen receptor-modified T cells targeting CD19 may overcome many limitations of conventional therapies and induce remission in patients with refractory disease.
Methods: We infused autologous T cells transduced with a CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CTL019) lentiviral vector in patients with relapsed or refractory ALL at doses of 0.

Chimeric antigen receptor-modified T cells for acute lymphoid leukemia.
N Engl J Med
April 2013
Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (S.A.G., D.B., R.A., S.R.R., D.T.T., B.H., J.F.W.); the Department of Pediatrics (S.A.G., D.B., R.A., S.R.R., D.T.T.), Abramson Cancer Center (S.A.G., M.K., R.A., D.L.P., S.R.R., D.T.T., M.C.M., B.L.L., C.H.J.); and the Departments of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine (M.K., A.C., B.H., J.F.W., M.C.M., B.L.L., C.H.J.) and Medicine (D.L.P.), University of Pennsylvania - all in Philadelphia.
Chimeric antigen receptor-modified T cells with specificity for CD19 have shown promise in the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). It remains to be established whether chimeric antigen receptor T cells have clinical activity in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Two children with relapsed and refractory pre-B-cell ALL received infusions of T cells transduced with anti-CD19 antibody and a T-cell signaling molecule (CTL019 chimeric antigen receptor T cells), at a dose of 1.
