Filter by:RATIONALE: Giving an infusion of natural killer cells from a donor after a donor stem cell transplant may help kill any remaining cancer cells after the transplant. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of donor natural killer cells when given after a donor stem cell transplant in treating patients with advanced cancer.
The purpose of this study is to establish a model which can predict the treatment outcome and the risk of treatment-related morbidity in patients with lymphoma.
High dose methotrexate (MTX) is responsible of severe toxicity in patients in whom elimination from plasma is delayed. Factors responsible for MTX accumulation are partly known but some patients still experience toxicity despite adequate measures being taken. Our hypothesis is that renal tubular secretion may be impaired in these patients. This study aims at evaluating the performance of the UCP ratio (urinary ratio of coproporphyrins), a putative biomarker of tubular secretion, in predicting delayed MTX elimination.
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. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells. G-CSF may help lessen the side effects in patients receiving chemotherapy. Imaging procedures, such as fludeoxyglucose F 18-PET/CT imaging, may help doctors predict how patients will respond to treatment. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying fludeoxyglucose F 18-PET/CT imaging to see how well it works in assessing response to combination chemotherapy and allow doctors to plan better additional further treatment in treating patients with stage III or stage IV Hodgkin lymphoma.
The purpose of this research is to find the most effective and least toxic way to prevent GVHD after BMT.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the anti-tumor activity of alisertib (MLN8237) in participants with relapsed or refractory non-hodgkin's lymphoma.
RATIONALE: Giving low doses of chemotherapy before a donor stem cell transplant using stem cells that closely match the patient's stem cells, helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It 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 make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving antilymphocyte globulin before transplant may stop this from happening. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well fludarabine, busulfan, and antilymphocyte globulin together with donor stem cell transplant works in treating older patients with hematological cancer.
The sequential combination of myeloablative therapy and autologous stem cell transplantation (APBSCT) followed by a reduced intensity allogeneic stem cell transplant (Allo SCT) and post SCT adoptive cellular immunotherapy will be well tolerated in patients with refractory or recurrent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) and Hodgkin's disease (HD).
Evaluation of event free survival (EFS) of patients treated with the study chemotherapy induction program: R-CHOP compared to the standard R-CVP regimen and response rates, time to best response, PFS, OS, neutropenic fever rate, infection rate, change in Ig levels, change in lymphocyte subpopulations counts in previously untreated indolent lymphoma patients in need of systemic treatment.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if cyclophosphamide given after busulfan and fludarabine can help to prevent graft versus host disease (GVHD - a condition in which transplanted tissue attacks the body into which it is transplanted) in patients receiving a stem cell transplant. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.
