Filter by:The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a four-month dosing period of intra-lesional injection of TG1042 in patients with relapsing CBCL. Patients will receive intra-tumoral injections of an adenoviral vector construct containing the human interferon gamma gene (TG1042), in an attempt to enhance immune responses with anti-tumor activity. This local administration induces tumour cell killing at the injected tumour sites.
Purpose of this study was to assess the safety profile and the anti-lymphoma activity of the FC+R combination.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as doxorubicin hydrochloride liposome, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. 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 rituximab together with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving doxorubicin hydrochloride liposome and rituximab together with combination chemotherapy works in treating patients with newly diagnosed Burkitt's lymphoma or Burkitt-like lymphoma.

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 rituximab together with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving rituximab together with combination chemotherapy works in treating patients with newly diagnosed, HIV-associated Burkitt's lymphoma.
RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy drugs, such as melphalan, before an autologous stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Also, monoclonal antibodies, such as yttrium Y 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan and rituximab, can find cancer cells and carry cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Chemotherapy and monoclonal antibody therapy also prepares the patient's bone marrow for the stem cell transplant. Giving colony-stimulating factors, such as G-CSF, and vinorelbine helps stem cells move from the bone marrow to the blood so they can be collected and stored. The stem cells are returned to the patient to replace the blood-forming cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy and monoclonal antibody therapy. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of melphalan when given together with yttrium Y 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan and rituximab followed by autologous stem cell transplant in treating older patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that has relapsed or not responded to previous treatment.
This phase II trial is studying how well sunitinib works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse or mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma. Sunitinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the cancer.
Recently published studies demonstrated very high event free survival for patients with a normal interim PET/CT and a high hazard ratio for progression of an interim positive (pathological)study. These findings strongly support the integration of interim PET as a decision point for adjustment of chemotherapy.This study use the minimal therapy considered safe according to the predefined risk factors for patients with interim negative PET. Those with pathologic interim study considered as higher risk patients will have dose escalation of therapy.remission rate ,event free survival and overall survival will be evaluated.
RATIONALE: AT7519M may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of AT7519M in treating patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors or refractory non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
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. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Others interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving combination chemotherapy together with rituximab may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving combination chemotherapy together with rituximab works in treating patients with newly diagnosed AIDS-related B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
This is a study of the drug perifosine for patients who have no standard treatment options. This study is designed to identify which cancer types respond to perifosine, and determine which regimen of perifosine is most effective in each one. Patients with either solid tumors or with lymphomas for whom this protocol represents reasonable or optimal treatment will be randomized to receive either perifosine 100 mg daily or 900 mg weekly until disease progression. Based on currently available data it is anticipated that these doses should be easily tolerated by most patients.
