Filter by:This is a compassionate use protocol for participants who failed induction chemotherapy + Vaccine on previous trials. These participants then went on to high dose BEAM chemotherapy and transplant, then received idiotype vaccine therapy at 3 months post transplant. Vaccine was given monthly x 4 series, with a fifth series given 12 weeks after the fourth. Participants were then followed annually until progression or death with standard staging.
This study will assess the toxicity/safety of CHOP chemotherapy given concurrently with rituximab, followed by maintenance PEG Intron in patients with anthracycline naïve indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. This study will also evaluate response rates, time to progression, molecular response, and immunologic parameters related to this treatment.will have an ocular exam prior to treatment. Patients in this study will receive 6 cycles of combination chemotherapy with the standard CHOP regimen given in conjunction with rituximab. Cycles are repeated at 21-day intervals for six to eight cycles. Patients achieving at least a partial response to chemotherapy will begin PEG Intron at a dose of 2g/kg/week subcutaneously. PEG Intron treatment will be continued for 12 months in the absence of signs of progressive/recurrent disease, or unacceptable toxicity/intolerance of therapy. PEG Intron dosing will be adjusted based on the presence of symptoms or other clinical manifestations of toxicity. Patients will undergo bone marrow evaluation for molecular testing at baseline. Those found to be positive will have repeat assessments performed post induction therapy, and after six months of PEG Intron. Patients will also undergo immunologic evaluation at baseline, post induction therapy, and after six months of PEG Intron. At the end of PEG Intron therapy, patients will have disease reevaluation and then annual data collection for long-term toxicity, duration of response and survival.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the difference in relapse rates and long term event free survival in patients with intermediate grade or immunoblastic non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) whose marrow is not obviously involved with NHL who are randomized to receive either an autologous bone marrow (ABMT) or peripheral stem cell transplant (PSCT). All patients with intermediate grade NHL with histologic negative bone marrow who would otherwise meet all eligibility criteria for high-dose therapy and ABMT are eligible for this study. Patients who are eligible will be randomized to either PSCT or ABMT at the time of enrollment into our transplant program.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of 131I-anti-B1 Radioimmunotherapy when combined with high-dose BEAM or BEAC chemotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The study will also compare the difference in response rates and time to treatment failure between historical control patients receiving high-dose BEAM or BEAC chemotherapy with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant and patients receiving radioimmunotherapy and high-dose BEAM or BEAC chemotherapy with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant. Patients will receive escalating doses of radioimmunotherapy with anti-B1 radiolabeled with 131Iodine, high-dose carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine and Melphalan (BEAM) chemotherapy, and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant.
RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy before a donor stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It also helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor 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. Giving cyclosporine, mycophenolate mofetil, and methotrexate before and after transplant may stop this from happening. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well combination chemotherapy followed by donor stem cell transplant works in treating patients with relapsed or high-risk primary refractory Hodgkin lymphoma.
This Phase 1 escalating-dose study is designed to assess, the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of the novel proteasome inhibitor CEP 18770, given intravenously as single agent, in patients with advanced, incurable solid tumours or NHL, and to identify the recommended dose of CEP 18770 to be used in Phase 2 studies.
To determine the response rate, complete and partial, of patients with indolent lymphoma receiving Rituxan and BEAM with autologous stem cell transplant.
This is a continuation of a pilot study which is now regarded as a phase II trial with a plan to enroll an additional 40 patients (20 related and 20 unrelated donor transplants) with hematological malignancy assessing the safety and efficacy of a minimally myelosuppressive regimen with pentostatin and low-dose total body irradiation (TBI) followed by allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (alloPSCT).
This is a Phase I/II trial designed to study the toxicity and Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of bortezomib in combination with BEAM (carmustine (BCNU), etoposide, cytarabine, melphalan) and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) and to obtain a preliminary estimate of the response rate to this combination.
This pilot clinical trial studies biological therapy in treating patients with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related lymphoma undergoing stem cell transplant. Giving chemotherapy before a stem cell transplant stops the growth of cancer cells by stopping them from dividing or killing them. After treatment, stem cells are collected from the patient's blood and stored. The stem cells are then returned to the patient to replace the blood-forming cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy. Giving biological therapy as part of the stem cell transplant may be more effective in treating patients with AIDS-related lymphoma
