Filter by:The goal of this clinical research study is to find out if ofatumumab can control CLL or SLL that is left after chemotherapy or chemoimmunotherapy. The safety of the drug will also be studied.
This phase I clinical trial is studying the side effects and the best dose of lenalidomide after donor bone marrow transplant in treating patients with high-risk hematologic cancer. Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if sapacitabine given in combination with 2 standard drugs (cyclophosphamide and rituximab) can help to control CLL and SLL. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.
This phase II trial studies how well sirolimus, cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil works in preventing graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) in patients with blood cancer undergoing donor peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplant. Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's 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 total-body irradiation together with sirolimus, cyclosporine, and mycophenolate mofetil before and after transplant may stop this from happening.
The choice of a preferred first-line treatment requires balancing the desire for optimal disease control with the occurrence of early and late treatment-related effects. To fully assess this balance, the treatment decision process should ideally take into account the outcome following a consistent second-line therapy, in particular when tolerated, widely applicable and highly effective salvage regimens exist, like in Hodgkin lymphoma failing initial chemotherapy.
The F2-study is a complement of the previous studies of the Follicular Lymphoma Prognostic Factors Project which permitted the development of the Follicular Lymphoma International Prognostic Index (FLIPI). The F2-study is designed as a prospective collection of information potentially useful to predict the prognosis of newly diagnosed Follicular Lymphoma patients, and its purposes are to validate the FLIPI and to verify whether a prognostic collection of data would allow the development of a more accurate prognostic index.
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) represents a step forward in the definition of response to therapy in patients with Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL). In particular the use of PET for the early assessment of response has been described as the most important tool for predicting the risk of disease progression. As no data are available to support the use of early assessment of response for adapting and modifying subsequent treatment, the use of PET should be limited only to patients enrolled in clinical trials. Irrespective of recommendations PET scanning is included in the current management of patients with HL at baseline, mid treatment, end of treatment, and follow-up. So far no study has been performed to verify how PET is currently used in the clinical setting and to assess if and how results of PET scanning are used for supporting treatment and clinical decisions.
This study will investigate the efficacy and safety of MK-4827 in participants with relapsed mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and in a subset of participants with inactivation of the Ataxia-Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM) gene.
To determine the response to the combination of Revlimid (Lenalidomide)+ Vidaza (Azacitidine) in patients with relapsed/refractory CLL and SLL Hypothesis- lenalidomide's activity in combination with azacitidine may further enhance its activity and the durability of treatment response.
Background: - The experimental drug IPdR is broken down in the body to IdUrd, which has been given to patients to find out if it can improve radiation therapy. IdUrd has to be given through a vein; therefore this new drug (IPdR) has been made which can be taken by mouth. Researchers are interested in determining whether IPdR should also be studied to find out if it can improve radiation therapy. The current study is to find out if people absorb the drug given by mouth. Objectives: - To evaluate the levels of drug and its breakdown products in the blood following a single dose of IPdR by mouth. . Eligibility: - Individuals at least 18 years of age who have been diagnosed with cancer (solid tumors or lymphomas) that have not responded to standard treatment. Design: - This study involves an initial dosing visit, one day of admission to the hospital for blood work, and a follow-up visit 14 days later. - Participants will be screened with a physical examination and medical history, as well as blood and urine samples. - Participants will receive a single dose of IPdR, and will provide multiple blood and urine samples for 24 hours after administration of the drug. - Fourteen days after receiving IPdR, participants will have another physical examination and additional blood and urine tests to evaluate how IPdR has been broken down by the body. - Cancer treatment will not be provided as part of this protocol.
