Filter by:This study uses a drug called dasatinib to produce an anti-cancer effect called large granular lymphocyte cellular expansion. Large granular lymphocytes are blood cells known as natural killer cells that remove cancer cells. Researchers think that dasatinib may cause large granular lymphocyte expansion to happen in patients who have received a blood stem cell transplant (SCT) between 3 to 15 months after the blood SCT. In this research study, researchers want to find how well dasatinib can be tolerated, the best dose to take of dasatinib and to estimate how often large granular lymphocytic cellular expansion happens at the best dose of dasatinib.
This observational study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of MabThera/Rituxan (rituximab) in previously untreated patients with follicular lymphoma. Data will be collected for 3 years
This randomized, open-label study will compare the efficacy and safety of MabThera/Rituxan (rituximab) alone, and in combination with Roferon-A (interferon alfa-2a) in patients with follicular or other CD20+ low-grade lymphoma. Patients will be randomized to receive either MabThera/Rituxan 375 mg/m2 intravenously weekly for 4 weeks or Roferon-A 3 MIU/day subcutaneously in Week 1 followed by 4.5 MIU/day sc in Weeks 2-5 plus MabThera/Rituxan 375 mg/m2 weekly iv in Weeks 3-6. Patients who have a response will receive an additional cycle of treatment. The anticipated time on study treatment is up to 6 months.
This trial collects feedback from patients to develop a video game in improving the outcomes in stem cell transplant survivors. A video game may help to improve health behaviors for leukemia or lymphoma patients after stem cell transplant.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of crizotinib when given together with combination chemotherapy in treating younger patients with solid tumors or anaplastic large cell lymphoma that has returned or does not respond to treatment. Crizotinib may stop the growth of tumor or cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, topotecan hydrochloride, dexrazoxane hydrochloride, doxorubicin hydrochloride, and vincristine sulfate, 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. Giving crizotinib together with combination chemotherapy may be a better treatment for patients with solid tumors or anaplastic large cell lymphoma.
The investigators perform a retrospective microarray gene expression profiling study of FFPE from a cohort of DLBCL patients with whole genome cDNA mediated Annealing Selection and Ligation (WG-DASL) assay. The investigators also study the pattern of microRNA from patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. The results of gene expression profiles and microRNA is correlated with clinical outcomes of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of LY2875358 in Japanese participants with cancer that is advanced and/or may have spread to another part of the body.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ibrutinib in patients with mantle cell lymphoma who received at least 1 prior rituximab-containing chemotherapy regimen and who progressed after bortezomib therapy.
Primary mediastinal large B cell lymphoma is treated with a combination of chemotherapy and the monoclonal antibody rituximab (chemoimmunotherapy). Following chemoimmunotherapy patients receive radiation therapy if they have residues which may be active tumour. However at the end of chemoimmunotherapy the majority of patients show tissue scarring that is not necessarily active tumor. In recent years, PET/CT has proved to be a good tool to accurately identify active tumor from scar tissue in patients treated for mediastinal lymphoma.The purpose of this trial is to test whether radiation therapy is really necessary in patients where PET/CT has shown that the tumor is no longer active. Therefore we will compare radiation treatment with careful observation. Patients that at the end of conventional treatment of chemoimmunotherapy have a negative PET/CT (i.e., without residues suspected to contain active tumor), will randomly assigned to two different treatment groups: one treatment group will receive the radiation treatment, and the other treatment group will receive careful observation. The trial is planned according to a non-inferiority design aimed at demonstrating that progression free survival after the experimental treatment (observation) is not worse than after the standard comparator (mediastinal irradiation.Participation in this study could spare patients with complete remission at the end of chemo immunotherapy (PET/CT negative) radiation therapy that may be unnecessary.
Rituximab is an antibody targeted against the CD20 antigen found primarily on B-cells. Therefore, an imaging agent targeting CD20 expression may provide a more accurate evaluation of extent of disease and response to therapy than the current standard of care, F-18 FDG PET/CT. The main purpose of the study is to investigate a new PET/CT imaging probe for detection and follow up of lymphoma. Following are the 3 aims of the study: a) Phase I testing in lymphoma patients of Cu-64 labelled Rituxan for defining normal tracer biodistribution, stability, pharmacokinetics and radiation dosimetry; b) comparison of Cu-64 Rituxan and F-18 FDG PET/CT in lymphoma patients; c) evaluation of changes in uptake of Cu-64 Rituxan in response to rituximab-based treatment in CD20-positive B-cell NHL
