Filter by:This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of gemcitabine hydrochloride, clofarabine, and busulfan before donor stem cell transplant and to see how well it works in treating patients with B-cell or T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma or Hodgkin lymphoma that does not respond to treatment. Giving chemotherapy before a donor bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also 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.
Nestle Impact has shown efficacy in multiple surgical trials in relation to improving hospital length of stay and infection rate. 1 dose of Nestle Impact Advanced Recovery will be taken orally three times a day beginning on the morning following stem cell transplant and will continue until the day of hospital discharge.
This is a Phase II, open-label, two strata, multicenter, prospective study of plerixafor-mobilized HLA-identical sibling allografts in recipients with hematological malignancies. This study will establish the safety and efficacy of subcutaneous plerixafor for this purpose.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of monoclonal antibody therapy before stem cell transplant in treating patients with relapsed or refractory lymphoid malignancies. Radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies, such as yttrium-90 anti-CD45 monoclonal antibody BC8, can find cancer cells and carry cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal 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. Giving radiolabeled monoclonal antibody before a stem cell transplant may be an effective treatment for relapsed or refractory lymphoid malignancies.
Background: - Lab studies help researchers better understand cancer biology. This information may lead to new methods for diagnosing or treating cancer. To develop these studies, researchers want to collect samples from people with cancer or precancer conditions of the lymph system. These conditions include multiple myeloma, different types of lymphoma, and adult leukemia/lymphoma. The samples collected will include blood, urine, bone marrow, and tumor and skin tissue. Objectives: - To collect tissue samples to study different types of lymph cancer. Eligibility: - Individuals at least 18 years of age who have a lymphoid cancer or precancer condition. Design: - Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. - Different samples will be collected for study. Blood samples will be collected at the initial testing. More blood samples will be collected at different treatment points. Other liquid samples include urine, bone marrow, and any abnormal fluid. Tumor tissue and skin tissue biopsies will also be collected for study. - Treatment will not be provided as part of this study.
This research is being done to determine if combining an investigational drug called Everolimus with Rituximab can reduce the risk of your cancer from returning after high dose chemotherapy.
Diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCLs) represent 25 to 30% of adult non-Hodgkin lymphomas in western countries. DLBCLs are aggressive cancer but potentially curable with multi-agent chemotherapy. Whereas R-CHOP regimen has led to a marked improvement in survival, this disease remains a biologically heterogeneous entity. New therapeutic strategies are required including identification of patients' subgroups with different prognostic. This project is based on BMS_LyTrans and Goelams 075 clinical trial. A study of whole blood transcriptome in 75 DLBCL patients and in 87 controls showed that PD-L1 (CD274) gene was overexpressed in DLBCL patients. Preliminary results demonstrated that PD-L1 is detected in plasma of DLBCL patients with a significantly higher concentration than in controls. This protein was selected as a potential biomarker because of its established role in anti-tumoral immunity. Interaction between PD-L1 and its receptor PD-1 is known to inhibit activation of immune responses by inducing T-lymphocytes anergy and/or apoptosis. Moreover, a direct involvement of PD-L1 in the protection of cancer cells from lysis by activated T lymphocytes has been demonstrated. PD-L1 expression has been described in several solid tumours, including ovary cancer, breast cancer, colon cancer, renal cell carcinoma, non-small cell lung carcinoma and in hematological malignancies such as T-NHL, MM and Hodgkin's lymphoma. Furthermore the expression of PD-L1 by tumour cells is associated with poor prognosis. The blockade of PD-L1/PD-1 axis may represent a novel therapeutic approach in aggressive cancers. These first results incite to identify the cells releasing soluble PD-L1 and to investigate its role in the anti-tumoral immunity in DLBCL patients. The aim of this study is to identify cells producing soluble PD-L1 in DLBCL patients at diagnosis in comparison to others tumours known to express PD-L1 (metastatic breast cancer, Hodgkin's lymphoma, non-small cell lung cancer).
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of methoxyamine when given together with fludarabine phosphate in treating patients with relapsed or refractory hematologic malignancies. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as methoxyamine and fludarabine phosphate, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving methoxyamine together with fludarabine phosphate may kill more cancer cells.
This is a phase 1/2 multicenter study to assess the safety and effectiveness of brentuximab vedotin and bendamustine, when given together, in patients with Hodgkin Lymphoma or Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (ALCL) that has either returned or did not respond to initial treatment(s). Patients will be accrued at Columbia University Medical Center (CUMC) and at two subsites in Canada.
The main objective of the trial is to show that doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD)-based response-adapted therapy for advanced-stage Hodgkin lymphoma, with treatment intensification (bleomycin, etoposide, adriamycin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, procarbazine, and prednisone (BEACOPPesc) in case of a positive fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) computed tomography (CT) after one cycle of ABVD, has non-inferior efficacy compared with the intensive BEACOPPesc regimen. A second objective is to assess the prognostic value of FDG-PET/CT after one cycle of BEACOPPesc.
