Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine if the combination of VELCADE and rituximab improves progression free survival relative to rituximab alone in patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHL) who never received rituximab or who have previously responded to rituximab. This is an international study being conducted in the United States and in many countries around the world. A complete list of study locations is listed below.
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill cancer cells. It is not yet known which regimen of low-dose radiation therapy is more effective in treating follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying two different regimens of low-dose radiation therapy (24Gy versus 4Gy) to compare how well they work in treating patients with follicular or marginal zone non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
This phase II trial is studying how well etanercept works in treating young patients with idiopathic pneumonia syndrome after undergoing a donor stem cell transplant. Etanercept may be effective in treating patients with idiopathic pneumonia syndrome after undergoing a donor stem cell transplant.
RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy drugs, such as fludarabine and cyclophosphamide, and total-body irradiation before a donor umbilical cord blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells and prepares the patient's bone marrow for the 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 and mycophenolate mofetil may stop this from happening. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving fludarabine and cyclophosphamide together with total-body irradiation works in treating patients who are undergoing an umbilical cord blood transplant for hematologic cancer.
Primary Objective: To assess the trend in immunogenic response across patients administered either licensed trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (TIV) or one of three doses (15, 45 or 135 μg) of trivalent recombinant baculovirus expressed hemagglutinin vaccines. Immunogenic response is defined as a 4-fold or greater increase in serum antibody. Secondary Objective: To determine the safety and tolerability of 3 doses (15 μg HA per virus, 45 μg HA per virus, and 135 μg HA per virus) of recombinant baculovirus-expressed HA vaccine in patients with non-Hodgkin's B-cell lymphoma.
This is a pilot study of the safety and tolerability of photopheresis in combination with increasing doses of oral bexarotene in patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.Our hypotheses are that the combination of bexarotene with photopheresis is safe and that bexarotene will enhance immune response in the setting of extracorporeal photopheresis in the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), resulting in a shorter time to clinical response.
The purpose of this study is to compare the ability of pegfilgrastim vs. filgrastim to mobilize peripheral blood stem cells in patients with Non Hodgkin-lymphoma in an intraindividual study
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fludarabine and cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill cancer cells. An umbilical cord blood transplant may be able to replace blood-forming cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving sirolimus and mycophenolate mofetil after the transplant may stop this from happening. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving fludarabine and cyclophosphamide together with total-body irradiation followed by an umbilical cord blood transplant, sirolimus, and mycophenolate mofetil works in treating patients with hematologic cancer.
RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy, such as fludarabine, busulfan, and etoposide, before a donor umbilical cord blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer 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 antithymocyte globulin before transplant and tacrolimus and prednisone after transplant may stop this from happening. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying how well donor umbilical cord blood transplant works in treating patients with advanced hematologic cancer.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as VNP40101M, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of VNP40101M and to see how well it works in treating patients with Richter syndrome or refractory or relapsed chronic lymphocytic leukemia or other lymphoproliferative disorders.
