Filter by:Many chemotherapy combinations may be used to treat patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Although there are many options, a single, best option is not agreed upon by most cancer specialists. Bendamustine, a medicine recently approved for use in the United States, has been used in combination with rituximab in previous studies to treat patients whose CLL has returned after previous standard treatments. The purpose of this study is to determine whether bendamustine with rituximab is effective for the initial treatment of CLL for patients aged 65 and older.
This is a four-part dose-escalation and confirmation study in participants with advanced solid tumors. Part A is for dose escalation and determination of maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of MK-4827. Part B is a prostate/ovarian cancer cohort expansion. Part C is for a cohort of participants with relapsed or refractory T-cell prolymphocytic leukemia (T-PLL) or chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Part D will be for a cohort of participants with locally advanced or metastatic colorectal carcinoma (CRC), persistent or recurrent endometrial carcinoma, locally advanced or metastatic triple negative or highly proliferative estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer, or partially platinum-sensitive epithelial ovarian cancer. The study is also designed to find out whether MK-4827 causes at least 50% inhibition of poly adenosine diphosphate ribose polymerase (PARP) enzyme activity.
This is a randomized, open-label, multicenter crossover study to determine the oral bioavailability of new ABT-263 formulations relative to that of the current ABT-263 formulation being administered in ongoing Phase 1/2a studies. Approximately 36 evaluable subjects with lymphoid malignancies, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and solid tumors will be enrolled in this study.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide when given together with alvocidib in treating patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma. Lenalidomide may stop the growth of leukemia or lymphoma by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Alvocidib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving lenalidomide together with alvocidib may kill more cancer cells.
This is a phase I - II multicenter, non-comparative, open label study in patients with previously treated CLL aimed at defining the MTD of Lenalidomide given in combination with Fludarabine, Cyclophosphamide and at evaluating the (CR) rate of FC given in combination with the MTD of Lenalidomide (FCL).
This phase II trial studies how well giving an umbilical cord blood transplant together with cyclophosphamide, fludarabine, and total-body irradiation (TBI) works in treating patients with hematologic disease. Giving chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide and fludarabine, and TBI before a donor umbilical cord blood transplant helps stop the growth of cancer and abnormal cells and helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil after transplant may stop this from happening.
The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest safe dose of the drug 8-chloro-adenosine that can be given in the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Another goal is to learn how effective the drug is at treating leukemia.
One of two different doses of thymoglobulin will allow bone marrow engraftment with minimal Graft-versus-Host Disease and allow adequate immune response to allow the transplanted stem cells to replace the tumor cells.
Patients on this study have a type of lymph gland cancer called non-Hodgkin Lymphoma or chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. Their lymphoma or CLL has come back or has not gone away after treatment. Because there is no standard treatment for the cancer at this time or because the currently used treatments do not work fully in all cases, patients are being asked to volunteer to take part in a gene transfer research study using special immune cells. The body has different ways of fighting infection and disease. No single way seems perfect for fighting cancers. This research study combines two different ways of fighting disease: antibodies and T cells. Antibodies are types of proteins that protect the body from infectious diseases and possibly cancer. T cells, also called T lymphocytes, are special infection-fighting blood cells that can kill other cells, including cells infected with viruses and tumor cells. Both antibodies and T cells have been used to treat patients with cancers. They have shown promise, but have not been strong enough to cure most patients. The antibody used in this study is called anti-CD19. This antibody sticks to lymphoma cells because of a substance on the outside of these cells called CD19. CD19 antibodies have been used to treat people with lymphoma and CLL. For this study, the anti-CD19 antibody has been changed so that instead of floating free in the blood it is now attached to T cells. When an antibody is joined to a T cell in this way it is called a chimeric receptor. These chimeric receptor-T cells seem to be able to kill tumors, but they don't last very long and so their chances of fighting the cancer are limited. Investigators found that T cells work better if they also attach a protein called CD28 to the T cells. This protein makes the T cells more active and survive longer. Also they found that T cells that are also trained to recognize the virus that causes infectious mononucleosis (called Epstein Barr Virus or EBV) can stay in the blood stream for many years. These CD19-CD28 chimeric receptor T cells and CD19 chimeric-EBV specific T cells are investigational products not approved by the FDA. The purpose of this study is to find the biggest dose of chimeric T cells that is safe to administer, to see how long each of the T cell populations (CD19-CD28 and CD19-EBV-specific) last, to assess what the side effects are, and to evaluate whether this therapy might help people with lymphoma or CLL.
Objectives: 1. To evaluate disease free survival after Campath 1H-based in vivo T-cell depletion and non-myelo-ablative ablative stem cell transplantation in patients with hematologic malignancies. 2. To evaluate the incidence and severity of acute and chronic GVHD after Campath 1H-based in vivo T-cell depletion, in patients with hematologic malignancies undergoing non-myelo-ablative stem cell transplantation. 3. To evaluate engraftment and chimerism after Campath 1H-based in vivo T-cell depletion and non-myelo-ablative ablative stem cell transplantation in patients with hematologic malignancies.
