Filter by:This study enrolled patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma treated with polatuzumab vedotin-based chemoimmunotherapies. Patients were allowed to use chemotherapy regimens other than Rituximab and Bendamustine and transplantation following polatuzumab vedotin was also allowed.
A survey of health beliefs and cancer screening behaviour and intentions in Hodgkin lymphoma survivors
The purpose the research is to obtain preliminary data about the change in fitness from admission to discharge in patients undergoing an Autologous Stem Cell Transplant (ASCT) , assessed by the 6 minute walk test as the primary objective and the SF-36 as the secondary objective. All subjects will wear a Fitbit monitor while admitted for the ASCT to record their daily activity.
It is a single arm, multicenter, phase 2 study to explore the efficacy and safety study of R2-MTX chemotherapy（Lenalidomide, Rituximab and Methotrexate）as first-line regimens in the treatment of newly diagnosed primary central nervous system lymphoma. Objective response rate is the primary endpoint.
Background: Burkitt Lymphoma (BL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) are aggressive B cell lymphomas. Frontline treatment does not always work. Researchers want to see if a combination of drugs can help. Objective: To learn if it is safe to give people with certain cancers copanlisib together with rituximab and combination chemotherapy (DA-EPOCH-R). Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with relapsed and/or refractory highly aggressive B-cell lymphomas such as BL and certain types of DLBCL. Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy. A needle will be put into their hipbone. Marrow will be removed. Imaging scans of the chest, abdomen, pelvis, and/or brain Tumor biopsy (if needed) Blood and urine tests Heart function tests Treatment will be given in 21-day cycles for up to 6 cycles. Participants will get copanlisib by intravenous (IV) infusion. They will also get a group of medicines called DA-EPOCH-R, as follows. They will get rituximab by IV infusion. Doxorubicin, etoposide, and vincristine will be mixed together in an IV bag and given by continuous IV infusion over 4 days. They will get cyclophosphamide by IV infusion. They will take prednisone by mouth. Participants will have frequent study visits. At these visits, they will repeat some screening tests. They may give tissue, saliva, and cheek swab samples. They will have at least one spinal tap. For this, a needle will be inserted into the spinal canal. Fluid will be removed. Participants will have a visit 30 days after treatment ends. They will have follow-up visits for at least 5 years.
Improved cancer survival has led to increased attention on long-term health and quality of life (QoL) among the survivors. Both the cancer diagnosis and intensive treatments increase the risk of late effects which may interfere with daily physical, psychological and social functioning, and thereby negatively affect their QoL. Well-documented late-effects among cancer survivors are second cancer, cardio-vascular disease, pain, hormone disturbances, mental distress and chronic fatigue (CF). CF is a subjective experience of substantial lack of energy, exhaustion and cognitive difficulties lasting for six months or longer. CF is one of the most common and distressing late effects after cancer, affecting 15-35 % of survivors, often for years beyond treatment. Despite the high prevalence and the huge negative consequences of CF on daily functioning and QoL and the economic and societal costs, effective treatment of CF and standardized follow-up care are currently lacking. CF is a complex condition best understood as a multifactorial phenomenon. Our and other research groups have examined various cohorts of cancer survivors in order to identify behavioral-, psychological-, and biological factors associated with CF, that can form the basis for targeted interventions. So far, few treatable biological factors have been identified, even though immune activation, flattened diurnal cortisol slopes and a blunted cortisol response to stress have been demonstrated in small studies among cancer survivors suffering from CF. On the other hand, several modifiable behavioral factors including emotional distress, physical inactivity, sleep disturbances and unhealthy diets are found to be associated with CF. So far, most of the interventions aiming to reduce fatigue during and shortly after cancer treatment have targeted only one of these factors at a time, with small to moderate effect sizes. No prior study has examined if CF in cancer survivors is better treated by a complex intervention targeting combinations of these factors, an approach which seems logical due to the complexity of the symptom. The Division of Cancer Medicine at Oslo University Hospital (OUH) presently offers limited rehabilitation programs, including patient education, physical exercise, cognitive behavioral program and nutrition counselling to cancer survivors with CF. However, these programs are not offered as an interdisciplinary intervention integrated in a standardized patient care pathway, and the effects of these interventions have not been assessed. Based on the investigators clinical experience and published studies on single-targeted interventions, the investigators hypothesize that a complex intervention including psycho-educational elements, physical exercise and nutrition counseling delivered as a standardized patient care pathway is well-founded and doable, and will improve fatigue, functioning and QoL in cancer survivors with CF. During the fall of 2021, the investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with the overall objective to improve fatigue in lymphoma survivors with CF. To uncover strengths and weaknesses with the planned RCT, i.e. the inclusion procedures, the assessments and the complex intervention, the investigators are now conducting a small one-armed feasibility study before the RCT during spring 2021.
This study is plan to assess the safety and efficacy of Acalabrutinib in Indian patients with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) and relapsed and refractory mantle cell lymphoma (MCL)
The anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies, rituximab (R) and obinutuzumab (G), are used as standard maintenance therapy every 2 months for 2 to 3 years in patients with follicular lymphoma (FL) or mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). This treatment is associated with profound and prolonged B lymphopenia, hypogammaglobulinemia and increased infections. Severe forms of COVID-19 on Rituximab with prolonged carriage of the virus have been reported due to significant impairment of humoral immunity in this context of maintenance therapy. Therefore, during the COVID-19 epidemic, clinicians are faced with the question of whether to discontinue maintenance therapy or continue treatment. However, the half-life of rituximab is 29 days and lymphopenia continues for up to 9-12 months after stopping injections. Therefore, it is not clear that discontinuation of maintenance therapy will alter the risk of severe SARS-CoV-2. However, post-vaccination immunization against SARS-CoV-2 by an mRNA vaccine is not known in this context of prolonged treatment with rituximab or obinutuzumab. It is however well established that post-vaccination responses against diphtheria, tetanus, pneumococcus, HBV, or influenza in particular are altered after anti-CD20 antibodies. If the humoral response is crucial in the post-vaccination response, it is also suggested that the preservation of innate immunity and the CD8 response, unaltered by anti-CD20, could also play an important role in the post-vaccination response and virus clearance. The aim of our study is to evaluate the humoral and post-vaccination T-cell response based on serological data and T-cell production of interferon gamma in response to SARS-CoV-2 specific antigens (Elispot interferon gamma) in this group of patients treated for lymphoma with a long-term anti-CD20 antibody.
The aims of the study are to assess the safety profile of brigatinib and the clinical response rates in adults with Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK)-Positive Metastatic Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). Treatment with brigatinib and follow-up will be according to routine clinical practice. Study doctors will review the participants' medical records at the start of the study, then at 12 and 24 weeks after treatment starts.
The development of new diagnostic tools and targeted therapy have significantly improved the management of non-Hodgkin's malignant lymphomas and thus their long-term prognosis. However, in the study of improved patient management, survival is not the only measurable indicator and preservation of quality of life is an essential component. In addition, there is little existing data regarding the determinants of quality of life in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) or follicular lymphoma (FL) in the general population in France.
