Brain Function and Psychological Changes Related to Cell Therapy for Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Brain function and psychological assessment: Patients will be assessed before cell therapy and on Days 1, 4, 7, 10, 14, 21, and 28 after treatment.
Study summary
Cell therapy is an innovative treatment with significant efficacy in hematologic and certain autoimmune diseases. Although it offers potential benefits for autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA), it may result in cognitive and other potential impairments, which can adversely affect patients' cognition and behavior.
Brain function and psychological assessment are essential for the early detection of potential impairments, allowing timely interventions to prevent complications and ensure patient safety. This study aims to comprehensively evaluate the physical and psychological impacts of cell therapy on AIHA patients to develop safer and more effective treatment strategies that enhance their quality of life.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Concentration changes in oxygenated hemoglobin (HbO) and de-oxygenated hemoglobin (HbR) — Patients will be assessed before cell therapy and on Days 1, 4, 7, 10, 14, 21, and 28 after treatment.
Functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a non-invasive brain imaging modality, that can be used to measure HbO and HbR concentrations. - Psychological change — Patients will be assessed before cell therapy and on Days 1, 4, 7, 10, 14, 21, and 28 after treatment.
The Big Five Inventory-2(BFI-2) is used to measure the five broad dimensions of personality: openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, neuroticism. Higher scores indicate a stronger presence of that personality trait. - Anxiety symptoms — Patients will be assessed before cell therapy and on Days 1, 4, 7, 10, 14, 21, and 28 after treatment.
Hamilton anxiety scale(HAMA) is used to examine anxiety in AIHA patients, with higher total scores indicate more severe anxiety symptoms. The total score range is 0-56. - Depression symptoms — Patients will be assessed before cell therapy and on Days 1, 4, 7, 10, 14, 21, and 28 after treatment.
Hamilton depression scale(HAMD) is used to examine depression in AIHA patients, with higher total scores indicate more severe depression symptoms. The total score range is 0-52.
