View clinical trials related to Lymphoma.
Filter by:Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) is a malignancy with a poor response to treatment and with a median survival of 2- 4 years since diagnosis. Although histology is similar to that of an indolent lymphoma, MCL is currently considered an aggressive tumour. Few prospective therapeutic trials have been reported in MCL, and results are difficult to interpret due to treatment heterogeneity. It is known that standard chemotherapy for other clinically aggressive lymphomas yields poor results. Recently, better results have been communicated with intense induction chemotherapy treatments or consolidating the response with high dose chemotherapy with stem cell support. Keeping in mind these considerations, we will use and intensive induction treatment with Hyper-CVAD/MTX-AraC associated with anti-CD20 in order to increase the overall response rate followed by consolidation treatment with Ibritumomab -tiuxetan (Zevalin) with the aim of eradicate the minimal residual disease, responsible of relapse.
Objectives The primary objective of this study is to: • determine the complete and partial response rates and the toxicity profile of bortezomib (VELCADE, formerly PS-341) when administered in combination with DICE chemotherapy plus rituximab (i.e. VIPER) to patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma The secondary objectives of this study are to: - assess event free survival and overall survival - assess conversion of chemo-resistant to chemo-sensitive disease - assess the ability to collect stem cells from patients treated with salvage VIPER who then undergo autologous stem cell transplantation - perform correlative studies on pre-treatment tumor biopsy specimens; analyses will include the assessment of immunohistochemical expression patterns (germinal center B cell vs. activated B cell) and NF-κB activity
Primary Objective: - To determine the feasibility, toxicity, and efficacy of Rituximab with standard dose ABVD combination chemotherapy. ABVD combination chemotherapy consists of Adriamycin, Bleomycin, Vinblastine and DTIC.
RATIONALE: MP470 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying the side effects and best dose of MP470 in treating patients with unresectable or metastatic refractory solid tumor, Hodgkin's lymphoma, or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate two types of chemotherapy for primary central nervous system lymphoma in the elderly (age older than 60) : - Methotrexate, procarbazine, vincristine and cytarabine - Methotrexate and temozolomide
The primary purpose of this open-label study is to investigate the interaction of ketoconazole, a liver enzyme inhibitor, on oral LBH589 in adult patients with advanced solid tumors. The extension phase of the study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of LBH589 in patients with advanced solid tumors.
This pilot study will examine the safety, feasibility, and effect on quality of life of moderate physical activity on adolescent and young adult patients who are admitted to the hospital periodically for routine chemotherapy. Patients will be asked to participate in daily physical exercise during hospital admissions over a three-month period. Exercise sessions will be monitored and guided by M.D. Anderson physical therapists, a personal trainer, and Dr. Michael Rytting, pediatric oncologist. The personal trainer will meet with each participant for reinforcement and to provide an opportunity for exercise between hospitalizations. If results are positive, the study will be extended to a larger cohort of patients.
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well combination chemotherapy and nelarabine work in treating patients with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoblastic lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin, dexamethasone, methotrexate, cytarabine, mercaptopurine, prednisone, pegaspargase, nelarabine, and venetoclax work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.
This is a Phase II, non-randomized, open-label, single-arm trial that will be conducted at up to 50 sites in North America, Europe and Australia. This study is designed to assess objective response (OR) [complete response (CR) or partial response (PR)] in subjects with cutaneous manifestations of CTCL with a requirement for maintenance of such objective response for at least 28 days in subjects with stage IIB, III, and IVA CTCL. Additionally, this study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of CTCL subjects Stages IB, IIA, IIB, III, or IVA treated with oral forodesine.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if intense management and control of blood sugar levels during treatment for acute lymphocytic leukemia, Burkitts lymphoma, or lymphoblastic lymphoma will result in decreased risk of relapse, fewer complications, and/or longer survival.
