Filter by:This randomized phase III trial studies rituximab with bendamustine hydrochloride or ibrutinib to see how well they work compared to ibrutinib alone in treating older patients with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, may block cancer growth in different ways by targeting certain cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bendamustine hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Ibrutinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether rituximab with bendamustine hydrochloride may work better than rituximab and ibrutinib or ibrutinib alone in treating chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide when given together with ibrutinib in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma that has returned after a period of improvement (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Ibrutinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving lenalidomide together with ibrutinib may work better in treating chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma.
The purpose of this study is to explore the impact of thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) activity on the risk of HDM-related bone marrow- and hepatotoxicity and treatment interruptions during maintenance therapy for children with ALL. Hypothesis of the study: Patients with TPMT activity compatible with TPMT low activity polymorphisms have an increased risk of toxicity following high-dose methotrexate (HDM) compared to children with normal TPMT activity.
This is a multi-center, phase I/II clinical trial for patients who have relapsed more than 60 day after allogeneic transplant for a hematologic malignancy. The study consists of two phases. The dose finding phase is a modified version of a phase I trial and the extended phase is a modified version of a phase II trial. The primary objective of the dose finding phase is to determine the maximum tolerated, minimum efficacious dose (MTD/MED) of a interleukin-15 (IL-15) super agonist complex (ALT-803) when given once weekly for 4 weeks in the outpatient setting. The study will follow a standard 3+3 design of dose escalation for toxicity with an added feature of stopping early if efficacy is confirmed. There are six dose levels of ALT-803 for to determine the MTD/MED: 1, 3, 6, 10, 20, and 30 mcg/kg. Once the MTD/MED for ALT-803 is determined, this cohort will be used in the extended phase. The primary goal of this extended phase is to study the potential efficacy of ALT-803 in this patient population. Efficacy will be measured using rates of remission induction. An optimal Simon's two-stage design will be used in this phase. Stage 1 will enroll 14 patients (including the 6 patients treated at the MTD/MED during the dose finding phase). If 3 or more of these 14 patients respond to ALT-803, the trial will move to stage 2 and enroll an additional 23 patients. If 2 or fewer respond, the study will terminate enrollment early.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of tyrosine kinase inhibitor(TKI) therapy based on molecular monitoring of BCR/ABL levels in Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL)undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT).
Intensified conditioning regimen allo-HSCT is based on a hypothesis of that intensifying condition with less-used drugs could overcome resistance,reduce tumor burden, and most importantly, spare enough time for slow-growing GVL effect following immune reconstitution to finally get rid of MRD and control the disease. Our previous trial of HDE-ALL-2011 (NCT01457040) have confirmed the role of intensified conditioning allo-HSCT in adult ALL, resulting in significantly improved OS and EFS in comparison with previous standard TBI/CY2 conditioning regimen(data not yet published). But at the same time, FA-TBI/CY2-VP16 conditioning regimen was associated with high transplantation-related mortality (TRM), which might be attributed to excessive suppression on both bone marrow and immune. TT-ALL-HIE-2013, substituting FA with idarubicin, is aimed at maintaining anti-tumor effect with less cross-resistance and immune suppression and reducing TRM.
The goal of this study is to characterize the safety, maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and preliminary efficacy profile of IPI-145 given in combination with rituximab, or bendamustine plus rituximab, to subjects with select relapsed/refractory hematologic malignancies.
This is a multicenter, open-label, single-arm, expanded access treatment study designed to provide obinutuzumab to patients with previously untreated CLL in combination with chlorambucil and to evaluate the safety and efficacy of obinutuzumab administered in combination with chlorambucil. This study will enroll patients with previously untreated CD20-positive CLL requiring treatment according to the IWCLL guidelines (Hallek et al 2008), as assessed by the investigator.
Background: - Researchers are working to make stem cell transplant procedures safer and more effective. One complication of transplants is graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). This complication happens when certain white blood cells from the donor attack the recipient's own body. Researchers want to test a blood separator machine that may help remove more of the donor's white blood cells before transplant. They will study donors and recipients during stem cell transplant to see how well this process can prevent GVHD and other complications. Objectives: - To see if a new blood separator machine can improve outcomes of stem cell transplants. Eligibility: - Individuals between 10 and 75 years of age who are having a stem cell transplant for leukemia or other blood-related cancers. - Donors for the stem cell transplant. Design: - Recipients and donors will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. - Donors will have two blood collection procedures. The first will collect only white blood cells, and return the rest of the blood. After the first collection, participants will have filgrastim injections to help their stem cells enter their blood. Then, they will have a second blood collection for the stem cells. - Recipients will have radiation and chemotherapy to prepare for the stem cell transplant. They will then have the stem cell transplant with the donor cells that have been treated with the blood separator machine. - Recipients will be monitored closely after the procedure. They may receive some of their donor's white blood cells if needed to fight serious infections. - Recipients will have the regular standard of care after their transplant. Blood samples will be taken and any side effects will be monitored and treated.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of laboratory treated T cells to see how well they work in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, or acute lymphoblastic leukemia that have come back or have not responded to treatment. T cells that are treated in the laboratory before being given back to the patient may make the body build an immune response to kill cancer cells.
