Filter by:This research is a Phase I clinical trial. Phase I clinical trials test the safety of an investigational drug. Phase I studies also try to define the appropriate dose of the investigational drug to use for further studies. "Investigational" means that the drug is still being studied and that research doctors are trying to find out more about it. It also means that the FDA has not approved lenalidomide for your type of cancer. Lenalidomide is a drug that alters the immune system and it may also interfere with the development of tiny blood vessels that help support tumor growth. Therefore, this study will determine the effect of lenalidomide on the growth of cancer cells. Lenalidomide is approved by the FDA for the treatment of specific types of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and in combination with dexamethasone for patients with multiple myeloma (MM) who have received at least 1 prior therapy. MDS and MM are cancers of the blood. It is currently being tested in a variety of cancer conditions. In this case it is considered experimental. There are some participants with multiple myeloma or lymphoma who have had very long remissions after a bone marrow/stem cell transplantation from another person. This is believed to be the effect of the donor's immune system reaction against the recipient's multiple myeloma cells. It is hoped that due to lenalidomide altering the immune system, it might be able to potentiate that reaction. This study is being done to determine if the use of lenalidomide is safe in transplant participants and if it can facilitate an immune reaction resulting in regression of the myeloma or lymphoma. During this study you will be evaluated for side effects from the treatment with lenalidomide (including graft versus host disease) and for response of the myeloma to the treatment. There will be two groups of participants in the study. The first group will be treated at a relatively low dose of lenalidomide. If this is found to be safe then the second group will be treated at a higher dose
The current standard of care for the frontline treatment of peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL) is induction chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). However, many patients are unable to get to ASCT or relapse after ASCT, with a poor prognosis. Recently, a novel ASCT conditioning regimen of gemcitabine, busulfan and melphalan (Gem/Bu/Mel) has been reported to lead to favorable outcomes in this disease. We therefore designed a frontline regimen of CHOEP induction followed by Gem/Bu/Mel ASCT, and report the results of a phase 2 study of this regimen in patients with PTCL.
The purpose of this study is compare the efficacy of haplo-cord transplant (investigational arm) with that of a more commonly used procedure in which only the cells contained in one or two umbilical cords are infused (standard arm). We hypothesize that reduced intensity conditioning and haplo-cord transplant results in fast engraftment of neutrophils and platelets, low incidences of acute and chronic graft versus host disease, low frequency of delayed opportunistic infections, reduced transfusion requirements, shortened length of hospital stay and promising long term outcomes. We also hypothesize that umbilical cord blood selection can prioritize matching and better matched donors can be identified rapidly for most subjects.
For patients with lymphoma that recurs after chemotherapy, bone marrow transplantation using cells from a healthy donor represents potentially curative treatment. In these individuals, cure is possible because transplantation of healthy donor immune cells can fight the lymphoma in the patient. The goal of this work is to test a strategy that activates the healthy donor immune cells so that they more effectively fight lymphoma and can result in an increased cure rate for these patients. Our group has previously studied CpG, an immune activating medication, in patients with lymphoma and demonstrated modest anti-tumor responses. We now have a more potent form of CpG which we intend to test to see if it will better activate the donor immune cells and result in shrinkage of tumor throughout the entire body, not just at the injected site.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ublituximab in combination with lenalidomide (Revlimid®) is safe and effective in patients with B-Cell Lymphoid Malignancies who have relapsed or are refractory after CD20 directed antibody therapy.
The study hypothesis is that lenalidomide and romidepsin (and dexamethasone for patients with myeloma) will have an acceptable toxicity profile and that in combination will have sufficient activity in the target population (including those previously refractory to HDACi monotherapy) to warrant further investigation.
This randomized phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of carfilzomib when given together with or without romidepsin in treating patients with stage IA-IVB cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. Carfilzomib and romidepsin may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether giving carfilzomib alone is more effective than when given together with romidepsin.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the addition of idelalisib to bendamustine/rituximab on progression-free survival (PFS) in adults with previously treated indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma (iNHL). An increased rate of deaths and serious adverse events (SAEs) among participants with front-line chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and early-line iNHL treated with idelalisib in combination with standard therapies was observed by the independent data monitoring committee (DMC) during regular review of 3 Gilead Phase 3 studies. Gilead reviewed the unblinded data and terminated this study in agreement with the DMC recommendation and in consultation with the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The goal of Part 1 of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of carfilzomib that can be given in combination with lenalidomide and rituximab to patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell non-hodgkin lymphoma. The goal of Part 2 of this study is to learn if the drug combination can help to control B-cell non-hodgkin lymphoma. The safety of this drug combination will be studied in both parts. Carfilzomib is designed to keep cancer cells from repairing themselves. If the cancer cells cannot repair themselves, this may cause them to die. Lenalidomide is designed to change the body's immune system. It may also interfere with the development of tiny blood vessels that help support tumor growth. This may decrease the growth of cancer cells. Rituximab is designed to attach to cancer cells and damage them, which may cause the cancer cells to die. It is also designed to cause the immune system to attack cancer cells.
