A phase II trial of TisaGenlecleucel (CTL019) in Elderly Patients with First-Relapsed or Primary Refractory Aggressive B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma
The goal of this project is to test the feasibility of a Patient Preferences in Shared Decision-Making encounter tool (PPSDM) in the clinical context of Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) and Follicular Lymphoma (FL). This project will evaluate the feasibility of a shared decision-making (SDM) model that employs an "encounter tool"1 to facilitate SDM at the point of a treatment decision for patients with DLBCL and FL.
Background: -Cluster of differentiation 19 (CD19) and cluster of differentiation 20 (CD20) are often found on certain cancer cells. Researchers think that a person's T cells can be modified in a lab to kill cells that have CD19 and CD20 on the surface. Objective: -To see if it is safe to give anti-CD19 and anti-CD20 CAR T cells to people with a B cell cancer or Hodgkin lymphoma. Eligibility: -People ages 18 and older with a B cell cancer or Hodgkin lymphoma that has not been controlled with standard therapies Design: - Participants will be screened under protocol 01C0129 with: - Medical history - Physical exam - Blood and heart tests - Bone marrow biopsy: A needle is inserted into the participant's hip bone to remove a small amount of marrow. Scans - Participants will have apheresis: Blood will be removed through a vein. The blood with circulate through a machine that removes the T cells. The rest of the blood will be returned to the participant. - Once a day for 3 days before they get the T cells, participants will receive chemotherapy through a vein. - Participants will receive the T cells through a vein. They will stay in the hospital for at least 9 days. - Participants may have a lumbar puncture: A needle will remove fluid from the spinal cord. - Participants may have a tumor biopsy. - Participants will repeat the screening tests throughout the study. - Participants will have follow-up visits 2 weeks after infusion; monthly for 4 months; at 6, 9, and 12 months; every 6 months for 3 years; and then annually for 5 years. Participants will then be contacted annually for 15 years.
Cancer is a global health issue. According to the World Health Organization, Cancer is the second leading cause of death globally, and is responsible for an estimated 9.6 million deaths in 2018. In Israel, more than 30,000 new cases of cancer were diagnosed, and more than 11,000 deaths were cancer-related during 2016. Imaging plays a pivotal role in cancer management, and multiple techniques are used in all phases of cancer management. The overall morphological, structural, metabolic and functional information obtained in imaging is used for improved individualized therapy planning. Different imaging modalities are available during different time points in the natural history of different malignancies: Early detection of cancer through screening based on imaging is probably a major contributor to a reduction in mortality for certain cancers . Once a diagnosis is made, determining the clinical stage of cancer, meaning the extent of the disease before any treatment is given, is a critical element in determining appropriate treatment based on the experience and outcomes of groups of previous patients with similar stage . Precise clinical staging of cancer is crucial. Not only that this clear non-ambiguous description is a key factor that defines prognosis, it is also a chief component of inclusion, exclusion, and stratification criteria for clinical trials. Several cancer staging systems are used worldwide. The most clinically useful staging system is the tumor, node, and metastasis (TNM) staging system developed by the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) in collaboration with the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC). The AJCC TNM system classifies cancers by the size and extent of the primary tumor (T), involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence or absence of distant metastases (M). There is a TNM staging algorithm for cancers of virtually every anatomic site and histology, with the primary exception of pediatric cancers. The clinical TNM (cTNM) classification should be used to determine correctly the clinical stage of cancer and to help guide primary therapy planning.
Central nervous system lymphoma (CNSL) is a rare brain tumor constituting 3% of all newly diagnosed brain tumors, and 2% to 3% of all cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. There are two subtypes of CNSL. Owing to its low incidence, there is limited prospective and/or randomized data to guide the therapy of CNSL. Current knowledge about optimal diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic strategies of CNSL is urged. The immune system plays a fundamental role in controlling and eradicating cancer but is held in check by inhibitory receptors and ligands. These immune checkpoint pathways, which normally maintain self-tolerance and limit collateral tissue damage during anti-microbial immune responses, can be co-opted by cancer to evade immune destruction. A plethora of regulatory molecules have been identified. Among them, three have been studied most intensively: cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4) binding to CD80 or CD86, programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) binding to PD-1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) or PD-L2, and SIRPĪ±binding to CD47. Agents inhibiting CTLA-4, PD1, PD-L1 and CD47 are showing compelling antitumor activity in several solid and hematological cancers. Exploring the role of immune checkpoint pathways in CNSL may help us to establish the rational targeted therapies. In this study, the investigators will investigate the protein expression of several specific molecules in immune checkpoint pathways such as PD-L1, PD-L2 and CD47 in the large neurological resection specimens by immunohistochemical staining of patients with CNSL. Besides, the concentrations of above molecules and other prognostic relevant factors such as chemokine CXCL13, Interleukin-10 and soluble CD19 in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) at initial diagnosis and after treatment will be evaluated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. About 100 patients with CNSL will be recruited. The protein expression of the above molecules will be correlated with the clinical outcome of patients with CNSL. The feasibility of adopting these CSF molecules as useful diagnostic or prognostic biomarkers in CNSL will also be investigated.
This phase I trial studies the best dose of copanlisib when given together with combination chemotherapy (R-GCD) in treating patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) or grade 3b follicular lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) after 1 prior line of therapy. Copanlisib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Rituximab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine, carboplatin, and dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving copanlisib together with R-GCD as second line therapy may improve the complete response rate for patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma or follicular lymphoma.
This trial studies how well bendamustine and rituximab in combination with copanlisib work in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bendamustine and rituximab, 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. Copanlisib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving bendamustine and rituximab with copanlisib may work better than bendamustine and rituximab alone in treating chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma.
This is a Phase 1/2, study evaluating IOV-2001 (Adoptive Cell Therapy) composed of autologous PBL (Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes) in patients with CLL/SLL, which has relapsed or is relapsing during treatment with ibrutinib or acalabrutinib.
18F-FDG PET/MR imaging protocol integrating advanced MR vascular imaging sequences, along with computerized quantitative methods for data analysis, is expected to serve as an objective tool for assessment of lymphoma patients. The aim of this prospective study is to develop an automatic artificial intelligence-based tool for the assessment of early response to treatment and evaluation of residual masses in patients with lymphoma. Specific objectives are: 1. To evaluate the added value of 18F-FDG PET/MRI compared with PET/CT in imaging lymphoma. 2. To optimize PET/MR imaging protocol for lymphoma assessment. 3. To develop an automated tool for staging patients with lymphoma. 4. To develop an automated method for early prediction of response to therapy and prognosis in patients with lymphoma. 5. To develop an automated non-invasive tool for discriminating benign from active residual masses at end of treatment in patients with lymphoma.
