Filter by:This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vorinostat in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable solid tumors or lymphoma and liver dysfunction. (closed for accrual as of 04/05/2010) Vorinostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Vorinostat may have different effects in patients who have changes in their liver function.
RATIONALE: Antiemetic drugs, such as aprepitant and ondansetron, may help lessen nausea and vomiting caused by opioids. It is not yet known whether aprepitant is more effective than ondansetron in treating nausea and vomiting caused by opioids in patients with cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying aprepitant to see how well it works compared to ondansetron in treating nausea and vomiting caused by opioids in patients with cancer.
Primary Objectives: 1. To determine the efficacy of in vivo purging achieved by rituximab in the two groups. 2. To determine the number of apheresis procedures, total stem cell yield/kg patient body weight and the toxicity profile in the two groups. Secondary Objectives: 1. To determine the degree of expression of various adhesion molecules in the 2 groups and correlate with time to engraftment of neutrophils, platelets, and red blood cells, efficacy of stem cell mobilization and purging. 2. To determine the incidence of disease progression/relapse at 12 months in the two groups.
Multi-center, open-label, single-dose, dose-escalating Phase I/II study of GS 9219 in adult patients with relapsed or refractory CLL, NHL or MM. Patients will be enrolled into the study in sequential dose cohorts. Patients will be administered a single IV infusion of GS 9219 on Day 1 of a 21 day cycle and may receive a total of six treatment cycles based on toxicities and response. Patients who demonstrate disease progression will be discontinued from the study. Patients who, at the completion of six treatment cycles, tolerate treatment and show evidence of disease control (response or stabilization) will be eligible to continue receiving treatment at the same dose.
The purpose of this study is to define an improvement in patients randomized in four different arms: Arm 1: R-MegaCHOP14x4 + R-MAD + MAD + BEAM + ASCT; Arm 1BIS: R-CHOP14x4 + R-MAD + MAD + BEAM + ASCT; Arm 2: R-MegaCHOP14x4 + R-MegaCHOP14x2; Arm 2BIS: R-CHOP14x4 + R-CHOP14x4; Which are different in dose dense chemotherapy + Rituximab with or without intensified high dose chemoimmunotherapy and support of peripheral autologous stem cells.
A study in subjects with a type of B cell lymphoma (DLBCL)to evaluate the response rate, efficacy, safety and tolerability of YM155
Primary Objectives: 1. To evaluate the feasibility of enrolling children and adolescents with newly diagnosed brain tumors, leukemia, or lymphoma in a program designed to prevent the academic and cognitive declines that commonly result following central nervous system (CNS) disease and treatment. Hypothesis 1: Despite the rigors of disease and treatment, children and adolescents will be able to participate in the CTP while they are receiving treatment for cancer. The high participation of our patients in routine school activities during treatment suggests that they will have the energy and interest required to participate in cognitive training. 2. To evaluate whether a Cognitive Training Program (CTP) might be helpful to patients in preventing attention deficits that commonly result following CNS disease and therapy. Hypothesis 2: Patients in the CTP arm of the study will show fewer declines in neurocognitive performance at the end of training and again six months later, as compared with the control group who will receive the usual services provided by the Education Program in Pediatrics. 3. To explore the relationship between CTP treatment compliance and stability/decline in cognitive and academic performance in children and adolescents who are being treated for brain tumors, leukemia, and lymphoma. Hypothesis 3: Level of compliance with CTP treatment will be predictive of a patient's performance on neurocognitive measures.
A retrospective analysis will be performed regarding the usefulness of PET/CT performed following 2 cycle of chemotherapy in evaluation of progression, free survival and overall survival of patients with aggressive non Hodgkin Lymphoma.
This Phase II study randomized R-ACVBP and R-CHOP as induction treatment in patients from 18 to 59 with DLBCL CD20+ lymphoma and 2 or 3 adverse prognostic factors of the age-adjusted IPI. The consolidation treatment is allocated according to the response to induction treatment assessed by PET after the 2nd and 4th induction cycles.
The goal of the clinical research study is to learn if treatment with a combination of three drugs, Cytoxan (cyclophosphamide), Rituxan (rituximab) and Nipent (pentostatin), will help to control the disease in patients with previously untreated non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, CLL, or bulky lymphoma. The safety of this treatment will also be studied.
