| Consuelo Wilkins, MD, MSCI, Senior Vice President for Health Equity and Inclusive Excellence for Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) and Senior Associate Dean for Health Equity and Inclusive Excellence for Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, always knew she wanted to be a physician. "Health equity was built into everything I did, even if I didn’t know it or recognize it at the time," Wilkins said. "I have always learned and believed that people are the same — everyone deserves to be healthy, and everyone should have the best opportunities to take care of themselves and their families."

Vanderbilt was the lead site for an NIH-funded, phase 2, multicenter influenza vaccine study in pediatric allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT) recipients that may lead to a change in the current flu vaccine recommendations in this vulnerable population. Natasha Halasa, MD, MPH and colleagues recently published in the New England Journal of Medicine, that two doses of high-dose trivalent flu vaccine resulted in higher amounts of influenza-specific antibodies than two doses of standard dose quadrivalent vaccine. https://news.vumc.org/2023/03/02/high-dose-flu-vaccine-beneficial-for-pediatric-stem-cell-transplant-patients/ |

Active Myeloid Target Compound Decitabine and Cedazuridine in Combination with Itacitinib for the Treatment of Myelodysplastic/Myeloproliferative Neoplasm (MDS/MPN) Overlap Syndromes, ABNL-MARRO Study
Multiple Cancer Types
This phase I/II trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of decitabine and cedazuridine (ASTX727) in combination with itacitinib and how well they work in treating patients with myelodysplastic/ myeloproliferative neoplasm. Cedazuridine is in a class of medications called cytidine deaminase inhibitors. It prevents the breakdown of decitabine, making it more available in the body so that decitabine will have a greater effect. Decitabine is in a class of medications called hypomethylation agents. It works by helping the bone marrow produce normal blood cells and by killing abnormal cells in the bone marrow. Itacitinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving decitabine and cedazuridine in combination with itacitinib may work better in treating patients with myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasm.

This is a Phase II, single arm, multi-center trial, designed to estimate the efficacy and
toxicity of haploidentical bone marrow transplantation (BMT) in patients with sickle cell
disease (SCD). Based on their age and entry criteria patients are stratified into two groups:
(1) children with severe SCD; and (2) adults with severe SCD.

Hematologic
The primary purpose of the Research Database is to have a comprehensive source of
observational data that can be used to study HSC transplantation and cellular therapies.
A secondary purpose of the Research Database is to have a comprehensive source of data to
study marrow toxic injuries.
Objectives:
To learn more about what makes stem cell transplants and cellular therapies work well such
as:
- Determine how well recipients recover from their transplants or cellular therapy;
- Determine how recovery after a transplant or cellular therapy can be improved;
- Determine how a donor's or recipient's genetics impact recipient recovery after a
transplant or cellular therapy;
- Determine how access to transplant or cellular therapy for different groups of patients
can be improved;
- Determine how well donors recover from the collection procedures.
