The purpose of this study is to determine whether whether surgical resection followed by chemotherapy is superior to systemic chemotherapy alone in terms of treatment outcome and quality of life (QOL) in patients with primary intestinal lymphoma.
This is a randomized, open-label, active-control, parallel-group, multicenter, multinational Phase 2 Study of the efficacy and safety of VELCADE, Rituximab, Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, and Prednisone (VR-CAP) or Rituximab, Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, and Prednisone (R-CHOP) in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Non-Germinal Center B-Cell (non-GCB) Subtype of Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL)
Poor mobilization of hematopoietic progenitors needed to support autologous transplantation is a serious clinical problem. We are investigating the role of plerixafor administered in an at risk population to augment successful stem cell collection. OBJECTIVES To determine if plerixafor when administered on the day prior to planned autologous collection on first mobilization attempt in those with a peripheral blood CD34 ≤ 10X106/L will: - increase the number of patients successfully collected in one day - increase the number of patients successfully mobilized on first collection attempt - is cost neutral within a Canadian setting
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Resminostat (4SC-201) is effective and safe in the treatment of relapsed or refractory Hodgkin's Lymphoma.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide when given after combination chemotherapy with or without rituximab and stem cell transplant and to see how well it works in treating patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has not responded to treatment or has returned after a period of improvement and is resistant to chemotherapy. Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, may block cancer growth by targeting certain cells. Giving lenalidomide after combination chemotherapy with or without rituximab may work better in treating patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
The purpose of this phase III study is to evaluate the efficacy of orally-administered panobinostat in reducing the risk of relapse in patients with classical Hodgkin's Lymphoma who achieved a complete response following high-dose chemotherapy (HDT) with Autologous stem cell transplant(AHSCT).
Primary trial objective in this three arm trial is to assess the safety and tolerability of EMD 521873, and to determine whether the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is reached with EMD 521873 doses of up to 1.5 mg/kg given alone or in combination with fixed, low-dose cyclophosphamide (CPA) in patients with metastatic or locally advanced solid tumors or B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Secondary objectives are to evaluate pharmacokinetic, immunogenicity, overall and best clinical response, changes in tumor marker levels, survival and biological/immune responses to EMD 521873. A total of 78 patients are planned. Patients will remain on the dose throughout the trial. It is intended to administer 3 cycles (21 d each, or until progression or a xxx line therapy becomes necessary.
The purpose of this study is to find out the effects of a drug called LBH589 when given to people with recurrent or refractory Hodgkin or Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The safety of this drug will also be studied. The participants' physical state, changes in the size of the tumor, or state of Hodgkin or non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, and laboratory findings taken while on-study will help the researchers decide if LBH589 is safe and effective.
Background: - Studies conducted at the National Cancer Institute suggest that certain chemotherapy drugs may be more effective if given by continuous infusion into the vein rather than by the standard method of rapid intravenous injection. One combination of six chemotherapy drugs, known as etoposide, prednisone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and rituximab (EPOCH-R), has had a high degree of effectiveness in people with certain kinds of cancer. - Recent evidence also indicates that the effects of chemotherapy may be improved by combining the treatment with monoclonal antibodies, which are purified proteins that are specially made to attach to foreign substances such as cancer cells. A monoclonal antibody called campath (alemtuzumab) has been manufactured to attach to a protein called Campath-1 antigen (CD52) that may target tumor cells or the surrounding inflammatory cells. - Researchers are interested in developing new treatments for large B-cell lymphoma or Hodgkin lymphoma that can best be treated with chemotherapy. This protocol is specifically for people with diffuse large B-cell or Hodgkin lymphomas that have not responded to standard treatments. Objectives: - To test whether giving campath (alemtuzumab) in combination with continuous infusion EPOCH-R chemotherapy will improve the outcome of lymphoma treatment. Eligibility: - Individuals 18 years of age and older who have large B-cell lymphoma or Hodgkin lymphoma that has not responded well to standard treatments. Design: - During the study, patients will receive standard EPOCH-R chemotherapy, which includes the following drugs: etoposide, prednisone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and rituximab. The additional drug, campath, will be given by intravenous (IV) infusion on the first day of treatment over several hours. - When the campath IV infusion and rituximab IV infusion are complete, the drugs doxorubicin, etoposide, and vincristine will each be given by continuous IV infusion over the next 4 days (that is, continuously for a total of 96 hours). Cyclophosphamide will be given by IV infusion over several hours on Day 5. Prednisone will be given by mouth twice each day for 5 days. - Patients may be given other drugs to treat the side effects of chemotherapy, to prevent possible infections, and to improve white blood cell counts. - The campath-EPOCH-R therapy will be repeated every 21 days, as a cycle of therapy, for a total of 6 cycles. Following the fourth and sixth treatment cycles (approximately weeks 12 and 18) of campath-EPOCH-R treatment, study researchers will perform blood tests and computed tomography (CT)/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans on all patients to assess their response to the treatment.
