Filter by:The main purpose of this study is to determine the effects (good and bad) and the safety of Dynavax's immunostimulatory phosphorothiolate oligodeoxyribonucleotide (1018 ISS) given in combination with Rituxan on patients with B-cell follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. This research is being done because recurrent follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is not curable with standard chemotherapy or antibody treatments. 1018 ISS is an experimental compound that consists of short pieces of DNA that stimulate the immune system. It is hoped that 1018 ISS may improve the ability of Rituxan to kill cancer cells.
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well giving rituximab and dexamethasone together works in treating patients with low-grade non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving rituximab together with dexamethasone may kill more cancer cells
Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Lenalidomide may also stop the growth of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Giving rituximab together with lenalidomide may kill more cancer cells. This randomized phase II trial is studying how well rituximab and/or lenalidomide work in treating patients with follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that is not refractory to rituximab.
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. It is not yet known whether giving rituximab over a short period of time is more effective than giving it over a long period of time in treating follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying rituximab to see how well it works when given over a short period of time compared to when given over a long period of time in treating patients with follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
This study will determine the overall response rate and toxicity of rituximab and Velcade in combination in patients with relapsed or refractory mantle cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility, efficacy and safety of adding bevacizumab to rituximab compared to rituximab alone in patients with previously treated follicular non-hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) whose disease has progressed following at least one previous chemotherapy regimen and not more than 2 previous chemotherapy regimens.
In this trial, we will evaluate the feasibility, toxicity, and effectiveness ibritumomab tiuxetan, when incorporated into combination first-line treatment for follicular lymphoma. Addition of the ibritumomab tiuxetan to our previously evaluated, well tolerated combination of rituximab and short course chemotherapy will allow the use of additional active agent with a unique mechanism of cytotoxicity. In addition, "debulking" of lymphoma prior to 90Y Zevalin administration may minimize the myelotoxicity of this agent.
The aim of the study is to test [90]Y-ibritumomab tiuxetan, a radioactive antibody, in patients with stage III or IV follicular lymphoma whose disease is in partial or complete remission after first line chemotherapy. The radioactive antibody will be compared with no further treatment to see which is better in the long term after standard lymphoma treatment.
RATIONALE: Cellular adoptive immunotherapy uses a person's white blood cells that are treated in the laboratory to stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Rituximab and fludarabine may also prevent the body from making an immune response against the laboratory-treated white blood cells that are put back into the body. Interleukin-2 may help the laboratory-treated white blood cells stay in the body longer. Giving cellular adoptive immunotherapy together with rituximab, fludarabine, and interleukin-2 may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects of cellular adoptive immunotherapy in treating patients with relapsed or refractory follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
The purpose of this study is to determine the complete response rate when CHOP-R chemotherapy in followed by Zevalin in previous untreated patients with follicular lymphoma
