Filter by:This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of veliparib, cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin hydrochloride when given together in treating patients solid tumors or non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has spread to other areas of the body or cannot be removed by surgery. Veliparib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide and doxorubicin 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. Giving veliparib, cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin hydrochloride may kill more cancer cells.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Oblimersen sodium may help chemotherapy work better by making cancer cells more sensitive to the drugs. Giving oblimersen sodium together with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying the side effects of giving oblimersen sodium together with combination chemotherapy and to see how well it works in treating patients with newly diagnosed stage I, stage II, stage III, or stage IV diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous AMD3100 added to a standard G-CSF mobilization regimen of patients undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation for lymphoma. We hypothesize that after stem cell mobilization with G-CSF plus IV AMD3100, a significantly higher proportion of lymphoma patients will collect ≥ 2 x 10E6 CD34+ cells/kg.
The purpose of this study is to determine if FDA approved food safety guidelines are equivalent to a low bacterial diet (the neutropenic diet) with respect to the acquisition of infections during neutropenia in a sample of pediatric cancer patients.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and vincristine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Colony-stimulating factors, such as pegfilgrastim, may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood and may help the immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some find cancer cells and kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Others interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. It is not yet known whether combination chemotherapy and pegfilgrastim is more effective when given with or without rituximab in treating non-Hodgkin lymphoma. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects of giving pegfilgrastim and combination chemotherapy together with or without rituximab and to see how well it works in treating older patients with aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
The first part of the study will determine the highest dose of study drug that can be taken without causing serious side effects in patients with lymphoma. The appropriate dose determined from the first part of the study will be used in the second part of the study to assess disease response in 2 different types of lymphoma patients.
This phase II trial is studying how well umbilical cord blood transplant from a donor works in treating patients with hematological cancer. Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation (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 an unrelated donor, that do not exactly match the patient's blood, 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 (called graft-versus-host disease). Giving cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil before and after transplant may stop this from happening.
RATIONALE: Vorinostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. 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. Giving vorinostat together with rituximab may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects of giving vorinostat together with rituximab and to see how well it works in treating patients with indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
The purpose of this program is to provide expanded access to plerixafor for patients with NHL, HD, or MM who are to receive treatment with an autologous peripheral stem cell transplant.
RATIONALE: Biological therapies, such as fusion protein cytokine therapy, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. 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. Giving fusion protein cytokine therapy together with rituximab may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of fusion protein cytokine therapy when given after rituximab in treating patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
