Filter by:One of the ways that cancer grows and spreads is by avoiding the immune system.NK cells are immune cells that kill cancer cells, but are often malfunctioning in people with colorectal cancer and blood cancers. A safe way to give people with colorectal cancer and blood cancers fresh NK cells from a healthy donor has recently been discovered. The purpose of this study is to show that using two medicines (vactosertib and IL-2) with NK cells will be safe and will activate the donor NK cells. NK cells and vactosertib are experimental because they are not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). IL-2 (Proleukin®) has been approved by the FDA for treating other cancers, but the doses used in this study are lower than the approved doses and it is not approved to treat colorectal cancer or blood cancers.
Secondary central nervous system lymphoma (SCNSL) occurred in about 5% of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). The prognosis of SCNSL is very poor. A number of retrospective studies have shown that the median overall survival (mOS) since the diagnosis of CNSL is only 2.5-3.5 months, and the 2-year OS rate is only 20%. At present, there is no consensus on the treatment of SCNSL, and new therapeutic strategies are urgently needed. Zanubrutinib is a new second-generation BTK inhibitor, which has showed good efficacy and safety in a variety of B-NHL. Zanubrutinib has showed good blood-brain barrier permeability in preclinical studies. This study attempts to evaluate the efficacy and safety of zanubrutinib combined with rituximab and high-dose methotrexate in the treatment of SCNSL in patients with DLBCL.
Primary central nervous system (CNS) lymphomas represent 5% of primary brain tumors. More than 90% of them are diffuse large B-cell lymphomas. [18F]-Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET-[18F]-FDG) is the gold standard for imaging systemic lymphomas, but its application in primary CNS lymphoma is compromised by the limited specificity of brain fixations and the high uptake of [18F]-FDG in healthy brain tissue. [18F]-Fludarabine is a new radiopharmaceutical developed for PET imaging of lymphomas. Preclinical studies indicate a restricted binding specificity to lymphoid tissue compared to [18F]-FDG and an ability to detect residual lymphoma disease after treatment. A pilot study in humans shows good agreement of its binding with tumor sites in systemic lymphoma and superior tumor contrast to [18F]-FDG. Finally, a recent preclinical study shows a binding ratio in brain lymphoma 3 times higher than that of healthy brain tissue in mouse models of primary CNS lymphoma, whereas in mouse models of high-grade glial tumors, the binding level is very low, comparable to that of healthy tissue (background). Investigators hypothesize that [18F]-Fludarabine could be the radiopharmaceutical of choice for the diagnosis and monitoring of primary CNS lymphomas in PET. The main objective of the study is to characterize the cerebral distribution and [18F]-Fludarabine uptake in newly-diagnosed primary CNS lymphomas before surgery, chemotherapy or radiotherapy, using PET-MR imaging.
This is a multicenter prospective single arm phase II study, and the purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sequential treatment regimens with RO-MTX after pomalidomide, orelabrutinib, rituximab (POR) in newly-diagnosed primary central nervous system lymphoma, and explore the feasibility of chemo-free treatment in PCNSL. The primary objective was the overall response rate (ORR; defined as partial response [PR] or better) after 4 cycles of POR.
Investigating the performance of 18F-FDG PET/CT and PET/MRI in lymphomas
A Phase 1/2 Study of HLX301, A Recombinant Humanized Anti-PDL1 and Anti-TIGIT Bispecific Antibody, in patients with locally advanced/metastatic solid tumors or lymphoma.Up to 150 patients will be included in this study. Up to 30 DLT evaluable patients will be enrolled in phase 1a (dose escalation), 40 per-protocol treated patients in phase 1b (dose expansion), and 80 per-protocol treated patients in phase 2. Phase 1a to evaluate safety, dose limiting toxicity (DLT), and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of HLX301 in patients with advanced or metastatic tumors who have failed or are intolerant to standard therapy, or for whom no standard therapy is available.Phase 1b to identify the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of HLX301 in patients with advanced or metastatic NSCLC who have failed or are intolerant to standard therapy, or for whom no standard therapy is available. Phase 2 to evaluate the anti-tumor activity of HLX301 in patients with histologically or cytologically-confirmed non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), gastric/esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma (GC/EGJ), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), or urothelial carcinoma (UC) tumors that express PD-L1, after one or two prior systemic treatments and without standard therapy。
Background: Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is the most common cancer among people living with HIV in the United States. People with HIV are up to 17 times more likely to get NHL than people who do not have HIV. The disease may also be different in these two groups. More study is needed for treating people with both HIV and NHL. Objective: To test a study drug (pomalidomide) in combination with chemotherapy with or without another drug (rituximab) in people with HIV-associated NHL. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 years or older diagnosed with HIV-associated B-cell NHL with high-risk features. Design: Participants will undergo screening. They will have a physical exam. They will have blood and urine tests and tests of heart function. They may have imaging scans. Researchers will review tissue samples of participant s tumors. In some cases, a new biopsy may be needed. Participants will receive up to 6 cycles of treatment. The first cycle is 26 days: Participants will take pomalidomide by mouth for 10 days. After 5 days they will start receiving chemotherapy drugs through a tube attached to a needle placed in a vein (IV). Some participants will receive rituximab on day 5. All participants will receive a second set of IV drugs that will last for 4 days (96 hours). They will receive another IV drug after the previous treatment is complete. The remaining cycles are each 21 days. Participants will take pomalidomide by mouth for the first 10 days. Other chemotherapy treatments will also be repeated starting on day 1 of each cycle. Screening tests will be repeated at study visits. Follow-up visits will continue for 4 years....
The purpose of this study is to find out if mosunetuzumab is an effective treatment in people with follicular lymphoma that was recently diagnosed and have not yet received any treatments for their disease.
Uveitis is an inflammation of the uvea, an ocular tunic comprising the iris, ciliary body and choroid. This inflammation can also involve other tissues such as the retina, the optic nerve and the aqueous humor. These diseases can result in significant vision loss and account for 10% of all blindness in developed countries, and up to 25% in developing countries. The main difficulty in this pathology is to make the etiological diagnosis, which then allows a specific treatment of the disease. The main etiologie are inflammatory or infectious (sarcoidosis, tuberculosis) but other cancerous etiologies are possible and are of more complicated diagnosis. Vitreoretinal lymphoma is a subtype of central nervous system lymphoma, which is generally associated with a poor prognosis. It is a diffuse non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, with large B cells. It can be primary ocular (Primary Intra-Ocular Lymphoma - LIOP), without brain involvement, but can also be secondary to central nervous system involvement, which explains the poor prognosis of the disease. Approximately 50-90% of LIOP develop brain involvement within 1-2 years of diagnosis, which encourages early diagnosis to avoid brain involvement as much as possible. The main obstacle to rapid diagnosis is the difficulty of identifying LIOP. Indeed, the clinical symptoms of this rare disease are often identical to classical uveitis, and the diagnostic means to detect it are invasive and require a trained ophthalmologist and hematologist team. LIOP diagnostic tests are often delay in the management of uveitis and lead to diagnostic erraticity that can last between 4 to 40 months. The INSERM U1183 unit is developing a diagnostic technology for lymphomas based on the analysis of blood NK cells and their phenotypes including those acquired by trogocytosis (WO/2016/005548). A rapid, simple, minimally invasive LIOP test using this technology could therefore be propose to all patients presenting with uveitis and whose clinical criteria could match those of LIOP. The research hypothesis is : Could the diagnostic wandering of patients with primary intraocular lymphoma be reduced by a rapid blood test for NK cell phenotype of patients with uveitis? Following a simple blood test, a rapid LIOP test, using this diagnostic technology, could therefore be proposed to all patients with uveitis and clinical criteria (age, intermediate and posterior location of the uveitis) corresponding to those of LIOP. The primary objective of this study is to compare the phenotype of circulating NK cells of patient with untreated intraocular lymphoma versus the phenotype of patient with non-cancerous uveitis.
This phase II trial tests whether acalabrutinib, venetoclax, and durvalumab work in treating patients with Richter transformation from chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma. Richter transformation is a rare condition in which chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma changes into a fast-growing type of lymphoma. Acalabrutinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving acalabrutinib, venetoclax, and durvalumab may help improve survival in patients with Richter transformation.
