Filter by:The purpose of this study is to examine reports of the cancer called hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma (HSTCL) in the Dutch National Database of Pathology (Pathologisch-Anatomisch Landelijk Geautomatiseerd Archief or PALGA) during the years 1995 to 2008.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as methotrexate and leucovorin, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Glucarpidase may help return the level of methotrexate in the blood to a safe range. Giving high-dose methotrexate together with glucarpidase and leucovorin may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of methotrexate when given together with glucarpidase and leucovorin in treating patients with newly diagnosed primary central nervous system lymphoma.
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.
Phase 1 study to determine safety, tolerability, dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), and recommended Phase 2 dose of AV-299 administered IV as monotherapy to patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors, lymphoma, or multiple myeloma. The study will also determine the safety, tolerability and DLTs of AV-299 in combination with erlotinib in patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors.
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.
To assess the tolerability and the initial safety profile of Inotuzumab Ozogamicin (CMC-544) in combination with Rituximab in patients with B-Cell Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL).
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.
This is an open-label, multicenter, phase 1, dose escalation study of MLN4924 in adult patients with lymphoma or multiple myeloma. The patient population will consist of adults with a confirmed diagnosis of lymphoma (Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia is permitted) or multiple myeloma that is relapsed and/or refractory after at least 2 prior standard chemotherapeutic regimens and for which no curative option exists. Patients in the expansion cohort, Schedule E, must specifically have Hodgkin lymphoma, DLBCL-GCB subtype, DLBCL-non-GCB subtype, or Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL). Patients with multiple myeloma will no longer be evaluated as a part of this study.
This is a randomized, open-label, multicenter, prospective study to compare the efficacy and safety of the combination of VcR-CAP to that of R-CHOP in participants who have newly diagnosed mantle cell lymphoma grade II, III or IV and who are ineligible to undergo bone marrow transplantation.
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.
