Filter by:RATIONALE: Pentostatin may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide and mitoxantrone, 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, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Giving pentostatin together with combination chemotherapy and rituximab may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of mitoxantrone when given together with pentostatin, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab and to see how well it works in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or other low-grade B-cell cancer.
RATIONALE: Giving high-dose chemotherapy before a peripheral blood stem cell transplant stops the growth of cancer cells by stopping them from dividing or by killing them. Giving colony-stimulating factors, such as G-CSF, helps stem cells move from the bone marrow to the blood so they can be collected and stored. The stem cells are then returned to the patient to replace the blood-forming cells that were destroyed by high-dose chemotherapy and radiation therapy. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying the side effects and how well high-dose chemotherapy works in treating patients undergoing stem cell transplant for recurrent or refractory Hodgkin's lymphoma.
RATIONALE: Bortezomib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving bortezomib together with temozolomide may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of bortezomib when given together with temozolomide in treating patients with brain tumors or other solid tumors that have not responded to treatment.
RATIONALE: Studying PET scans given to patients with cancer who are undergoing treatment may help doctors predict how patients will respond to treatment. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying PET scans in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma who are receiving rituximab together with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone.
RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a donor peripheral stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer or abnormal cells. It also helps 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 tacrolimus, methotrexate, cyclosporine, mycophenolate mofetil, and sirolimus before and after transplant may stop this from happening. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well donor peripheral stem cell transplant works in treating patients with advanced hematologic cancer or other disorders.
The first part of the study is to evaluate and determine if three different forms of MGCD0103 (free base FB-MGCD0103, tartaric acid free base [TA-FB-MGCD0103], and dihydrobromide [2HBr] salt formulation MGCD0103) have the same properties when given to patients with cancer. The second part of the study is to determine whether MGCD0103 administered in combination with azacitidine is effective and safe in treating subjects with relapsed or refractory Hodgkin's lymphoma or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) (follicular or diffuse large B-cell [DLBCL]).
In this study, all patients will get investigational drug. There will be no comparator drug. This study will evaluate three tumor types: T-cell lymphoma, Indolent B-cell lymphoma, and Aggressive B-cell lymphoma. Each tumor type will include several tumor subtypes: - T-cell lymphoma: Peripheral and Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (PTCL, CTCL) - Indolent B-cell lymphoma: Small lymphocytic lymphoma, follicular lymphoma (Gr 1 or 2) and marginal zone lymphoma - Aggressive B-cell lymphoma: Primary CNS lymphoma, follicular lymphoma (Gr 3a and 3b) and aggressive lymphoma with prior clinical history of indolent lymphoma.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) scanning can be used to detect mantle cell lymphoma in the colon. Researchers want to learn if PET/CT scanning can produce good-quality images and/or find the exact locations of lymphoma in the body. Primary Objective is to determine if combined CT colonography and full body PET scan is technically feasible and can produce diagnostic scans as well as accurate anatomic coordination for detection of mantle cell lymphoma involvement of the colon.

Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Giving pentostatin together with cyclophosphamide and rituximab may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well giving pentostatin together with cyclophosphamide and rituximab works in treating patients with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of lenalidomide in the treatment of relapsed or refractory classic Hodgkin lymphoma(cHL).
