Filter by:This Phase 2 study was designed to assess the safety and hematological activity of AMD3100 (plerixafor) in patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) or multiple myeloma (MM) who were predicted to be unable to mobilize ≥2*10^6 CD34+ cells/kg within 3 apheresis days. Patients with NHL and MM were eligible to enter the study if they had undergone cyto-reductive chemotherapy, were to undergo autologous transplantation, and met the inclusion/exclusion criteria. The purpose of this protocol was to determine whether plerixafor in combination with Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) can increase the circulating levels of peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) in patients whose peripheral CD34+ counts remain low after treatment with G-CSF alone, whether it was safe, and whether transplantation with the apheresis product was successful, as measured by time to engraftment of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) and platelets (PLTs).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the addition of parathyroid hormone after a sequential cord blood transplant will improve engraftment, which is the ability of the transplanted stem cells to grow and to successfully begin producing new blood cells.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the treatment of Yt90 Zevalin in combination with CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone)are effective as first line treatment in patients with bulky stage II or stage III or IV diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
This is a Phase III, multicenter, global, open-label, single-arm, retreatment study of an investigational drug called galiximab in combination with an approved drug called rituximab in subjects with relapsed or refractory, follicular NHL who demonstrated a response on Study 114-NH-301 with a time-to-progression >=6 months.
This study will treat follicular lymphoma patients who have not received previous treatment with R-CVP. Half of the patients will receive Zevalin after R-CVP and the other half will receive only R-CVP. The two patient groups will be compared to determine if Zevalin given after R-CVP therapy provides greater benefits than receiving no additional anti-cancer therapy after R-CVP.
FR901228 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell to grow and by blocking blood flow to the cancer. This phase II trial is studying how well FR901228 works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
The purpose of this study is to obtain blood (up to 90 ml or 18-teaspoonfuls on one or two occasions) to make LMP1- and LMP2-cytotoxic T-lymphocytes and grow them in the laboratory in such a way that they are able to attack LMP1- and LMP2-positive cells in the laboratory. If we are successful in growing these cells and if we feel they would be helpful to the donor, we would then give the cells back to the donor. This trial is for patients that have a type of lymph gland cancer called Hodgkin or non-Hodgkin lymphoma, or chronic active Epstein Barr virus (EBV) infection, which has come back or not gone away after treatment, including the best treatment we know. This is a research study using special immune system cells called LMP1- and LMP2-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (LMP1- and LMP2-CTLs), a new experimental therapy. As in chronic active EBV infection, some patients with Hodgkin or non-Hodgkin lymphoma show evidence of infection with the virus that causes infectious mononucleosis (EBV) before or at the time of their diagnosis of the Lymphoma. EBV is found in the cancer cells of up to half the patients with lymphoma, suggesting that it may play a role in causing lymphoma. The cancer cells infected by EBV are able to hide from the body's immune system and escape destruction. We want to see if special white blood cells, called T cells, that have been trained to kill EBV infected cells can survive in the patient's blood and affect EBV-positive cells. In this present study we are trying to find out if we can improve this treatment by growing T cells that only recognize two of the proteins expressed on lymphoma cells called LMP1 and LMP2. These special T cells are called LMP1- and LMP2-specific cytotoxic CTLs.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of flavopiridol in treating patients with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as alvocidib, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing.
RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy, such as fludarabine and cyclophosphamide, and total-body irradiation before a donor umbilical cord blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer or abnormal cells and prepares the patient's bone marrow for the 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. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer or abnormal cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Giving an infusion of the donor's T-regulatory cells before the transplant may help increase this effect. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil after the transplant may stop this from happening. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of umbilical cord blood T-regulatory cell infusion followed by donor umbilical cord blood transplant in treating patients with high-risk leukemia or other hematologic diseases.
Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. 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. Radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies, such as yttrium Y 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan, can find cancer cells and carry cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Giving bortezomib together with rituximab and yttrium Y 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan may kill more cancer cells. This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of bortezomib when given together with rituximab and yttrium Y 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan and to see how well they work in treating patients with relapsed or refractory follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
