Filter by:The aim of this study is to determine whether alternating courses of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone/dexamethasone, cytarabine, cisplatin (CHOP/DHAP) plus rituximab followed by total body irradiation [TBI]/high dose cytarabine [ARA-C]/melphalan-peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (TAM-PBSCT) can improve the time to treatment failure compared to CHOP plus rituximab followed by standard PBSCT (dexamethasone, carmustine, cytarabine, etoposide, and melphalan [Dexa-BEAM]/TBI/high dose cyclophosphamide) in patients with untreated mantle cell lymphoma.
The aim of this study is to answer the following independent questions in the treatment of mantle cell lymphomas: - Can rituximab-fludarabine, cyclophosphamide (R-FC) improve the reduction of lymphoma mass compared to rituximab-cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone (R-CHOP) and so become a new standard for initial cytoreductive therapy? - Can maintenance with rituximab substitute the interferon maintenance and even improve the progression free survival in patients after successful initial cytoreductive therapy?
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.
To determine if rituximab administered after allogeneic transplantation decreases the incidence of chronic graft-vs-host disease (cGvHD)
This study is being done in order to determine the effectiveness of the combination of fludarabine, mitoxantrone, and rituximab in patients with mantle cell lymphoma. All three drugs,fludarabine, mitoxantrone, and rituximab have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)for the treatment of certain types of lymphoma. Rituximab is a drug (called a monoclonal antibody) which has anti-tumor activity on certain types of lymphoma. The combination of chemotherapy (fludarabine and mitoxantrone) with rituximab has not yet been investigated in patients with mantle cell lymphoma and therefore the combination in investigational.
Primary Objective: Evaluate the clinical activity of the RT-PEPC combination regimen (rituximab, thalidomide, and prednisone, etoposide, procarbazine, cyclophosphamide) in patients with relapsed mantle cell lymphoma. Specifically, response rate (RR) and time to disease progression (TTP) will be assessed. Secondary Objectives: 1. Assess the toxicity profiles of RT-PEPC treatment in patients with relapsed mantle cell lymphoma. 2. Prospectively characterize the angiogenic profile of patients with mantle cell lymphoma during treatment with RT-PEPC. The dynamics of the angiogenic profile will be correlated with clinical response to RT-PEPC therapy. 3. Assess the quality of life of patients receiving RT-PEPC treatment
- The purpose of this study is to find out whether combining a short course of chemotherapy (Fludarabine, Mitoxantrone and Rituximab) followed by Zevalin will be effective in treating relapsed mantle cell lymphoma. - The secondary purposes of the study are to determine the safety and to evaluate whether there is additional benefit from Zevalin therapy following the chemotherapy.
Monoclonal antibodies, such as yttrium Y 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan, can block find cancer cells and either kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Giving monoclonal antibodies, low doses of chemotherapy, such as fludarabine phosphate, and low dose total-body radiation therapy before a donor peripheral stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells and also stops the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving cyclosporine or mycophenolate mofetil after the transplant may stop this from happening
This phase II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of alemtuzumab when given together with fludarabine phosphate and total-body irradiation followed by cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil in treating patients who are undergoing a donor stem cell transplant for hematologic cancer. Giving low doses of chemotherapy, such as fludarabine phosphate, a monoclonal antibody, such as alemtuzumab, and radiation therapy before a donor stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. Giving chemotherapy or radiation therapy before or after transplant also stops the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's bone marrow stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil after the transplant may stop this from happening.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of sorafenib in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable solid tumors, multiple myeloma, or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with or without impaired liver or kidney function. Sorafenib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Sorafenib may have different effects in patients who have changes in their liver or kidney function
