Filter by:A research study of a new method of visualizing internal organs called 18F-FLT PET/CT that yields better tracking of cancer treatment progress. PET/CT stands for positron emission tomography with low dose computed tomography and has been used for many years. 18F-FLT PET/CT uses a new tracer, fluorothymidine, which is taken up by cells that are actively proliferating or dividing such as cancer cells. We hope to learn whether this tracer is superior to the conventional tracer for monitoring treatment of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).
Primary Objective: - To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for SAR245409 when administered in combination with rituximab or bendamustine plus rituximab Secondary Objectives: - To determine the safety and tolerability of SAR245409 in combination with rituximab or bendamustine plus rituximab in subjects with indolent Hon-Hodgkin Lymphoma (iNHL) Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) or Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) - To determine the pharmacokinetics (PK) of SAR245409, bendamustine and rituximab when used in combination in subjects with iNHL, MCL or CLL - To determine the pharmacodynamic (PD) effects of SAR245409 in combination with rituximab or bendamustine plus rituximab in subjects with iNHL, MCL or CLL - To determine the antitumor activity of SAR245409 in combination with rituximab or bendamustine plus rituximab in subjects with iNHL, MCL or CLL
The rationale for this trial is to demonstrate the feasibility and safety of allogeneic HCT for patients with chemotherapy-sensitive hematological malignancies and coincident HIV-infection. In particular, the trial will focus on the 100-day non-relapse mortality as an indicator of the safety of transplant in this patient population. Correlative assays will focus upon the incidence of infectious complications in this patient population, the evolution of HIV infection and immunological reconstitution. Where feasible (and when this can be accomplished without compromise of either the donor quality or the timeliness of transplantation), an attempt will be made to identify donors who are homozygotes for the delta32 mutation for CCR5.
This trial will use two cord blood units for transplantation using a reduced intensity regimen rather than using intense doses of chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Two cord blood units (double cord blood) are being used, as the numbers of blood cells in one unit are too few to allow successful growth of these cells. Because the risk of infection, particularly virus infection, is high after double cord blood transplant, this study seeks to reduce the rise of virus infection by using a reduced intensity regimen without a medicine called antithymocyte globulin (ATG), as used in prior cord blood transplants. Subjects will receive two chemotherapy drugs, melphalan and fludarabine, and low dose of total body radiation (one treatment) instead of the ATG. The number of patients with virus infections in this study will be compared to our prior experience using the ATG.
This clinical trial studies etoposide, filgrastim and plerixafor in improving stem cell mobilization in patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Giving colony-stimulating factors, such as filgrastim, and plerixafor and etoposide together helps stem cells move from the patient's bone marrow to the blood so they can be collected and stored.
RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors predict how well patients will respond to treatment. PURPOSE: This research study is studying DNA isolated from blood samples to see how well it influences response to rituximab in patients with follicular lymphoma treated on clinical trial ECOG-E4402.
This is a clinical research study of interferon (IFN) plus chemotherapy with the standard combination of Adriamycin, Bleomycin, Velban, and Dacarbazine (ABVD). The treatment will be given to patients with Hodgkin's disease. The study will look at whether adding IFN to ABVD improves the immune response against Hodgkin's disease, and will determine whether the toxicity of ABVD is increased by adding IFN.
The purpose is to investigate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of BI 836826 monotherapy in patients with relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma with at least prior treatments.
Stem cells can be transplanted from a healthy donor to a patient to combat blood cancers and other disorders. This process is called stem cell transplantation. Stem cells normally live in the bone marrow. A bone marrow transplantation (BMT) is when the bone marrow is directly transplanted into a patient. However, stem cells can also be stimulated to move from the bone marrow to the blood where they can be collected, a process is called mobilization. When these stem cells are transplanted it is called peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT). Both stem cell sources are used for different reasons, but PBSCT is much more common. There is considerable debate as to which stem cell source, BMT or PBSCT, is optimal. There are differences between the two sources in important transplant outcomes. The stem cell product that is transplanted, also called the stem cell graft, contains more than just stem cells. Results from studies suggest that the variation in the cells with grafts may account for the variation in outcomes. Preliminary data from a recent study conducted by the Canadian Blood and Bone Marrow Transplant Group has associated relative frequencies of particular cell populations with leukemic relapse and another important outcome called graft versus host disease (GVHD). While the later essentially equates to a failed transplant, the former is the most common and devastating complication of stem cell transplantation. The only drug used to mobilize stem cells into the blood of health donors for collection is G-CSF. However there is a new mobilization drug recently approved called plerixafor. This drug is able to mobilize stem cells when G-CSF has failed and pre-clinical studies suggest that it may produce a superior stem cell graft to G-CSF alone. There is little information available, besides safety and efficacy data, about the effects that plerixafor has on the stem cell graft of normal healthy donors. This study will compare the stem cell graft in normal healthy donors following plerixafor mobilization versus plerixafor and G-CSF mobilization. Specifically, they will look at the cell populations that have been previously correlated with important transplantation outcomes like relapse and GVHD. The investigators suspect that the stem cell graft mobilized by plerixafor and G-CSF will provide a superior graft to that mobilized by plerixafor alone.
Primary Objective: - To evaluate the efficacy of SAR245409 as determined by the objective response rate (ORR) in patients with 1 of following relapsed or refractory lymphoma or leukemia subtypes: mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), follicular lymphoma (FL), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), or diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) Secondary Objectives: - To assess duration of response, progression free survival (PFS), and proportion of patients with PFS at 6 months (24 weeks) in patients with either MCL, FL, CLL/SLL or DLBCL treated with SAR245409 - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of SAR245409 in patients with MCL, FL, CLL/SLL or DLBCL - To further characterize the plasma pharmacokinetics (PK) of SAR245409 in patients with MCL, FL, CLL/SLL or DLBCL
