Filter by:This is a prospective observational clinical study to characterise abnormalities of thromboelastography (TEG) parameters in patients with chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia. The investigators are also studying the relationship between Multiplate analysis and bleeding in these patients and the effect of platelet transfusions on thrombopoietin level and percent reticulated platelets. The investigators' hypothesis is that changes in TEG-parameters reflect the patients tendency to bleed.
The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of carfilzomib that can be given to patients with lymphoma after a stem cell transplant. The safety of this drug will also be studied. Carfilzomib is designed to block cancer cells from repairing themselves. If the cancer cells cannot repair themselves, this may cause them to die.
Patients with non-curable disseminated follicular lymphoma receive local radiotherapy targeting single lymph nodes and injection of low-dose rituximab (anti-CD20) and autologous dendritic cells. The therapy is repeated 3 times, targeting different lesion. Aims are to induce tumor immunity and clinical responses.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and the best dose of radiolabeled monoclonal antibody when given together with combination chemotherapy before stem cell transplant and to see how well it works in treating patients with high-risk lymphoid malignancies. Radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies, such as yttrium Y 90 anti-CD45 monoclonal antibody BC8, can find cancer cells and carry cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Giving chemotherapy before a stem transplant stops the growth of cancer cells by stopping them from dividing or killing them. Stem cells collected from the patient's blood are then returned to the patient to replace the blood-forming cells that were destroyed by the radiolabeled monoclonal antibody and chemotherapy.
This pilot clinical trial studies the side effects of lenalidomide and ipilimumab after stem cell transplant in treating patients with hematologic or lymphoid malignancies. Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate or suppress the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving lenalidomide with ipilimumab may be a better treatment for hematologic or lymphoid malignancies.
This study is the first time that a new experimental drug called [18F]-SKI-249380 is being used in people. [18F]-SKI-249380 is not a therapeutic drug. [18F]-SKI-249380 is a drug that will be used with PET scanners to 'see' where [18F]-SKI-249380 goes in the body, after its injected. The researchers believe that scans with [18F]-SKI-249380 might be able to find tumors in patients. This study is being done to see how long [18F]-SKI-249380 stays in the blood, when it is given to people in tiny amounts by an injection into a vein in their arm, and to see where [18F]-SKI-249380 goes in the body. If the results of this trial are good, then the study doctors plan to use [18F]-SKI-249380 in another trial to see if scans with [18F]-SKI-249380 are better for finding tumors compared to the standard types of scans that doctors use.
Certain cancers require the amino acid arginine. Arginine deiminase (ADI) is an enzyme from microbes that degrade arginine. ADI has been formulated with polyethylene glycol and has been used to treat patients that have cancers that have arginine. In this study, the primary efficacy variable will be assessment of tumor response rate.
This a multi-center, single arm, open-label, Phase I dose-finding and preliminary efficacy study of the combination of the histone deacetylase inhibitor romidepsin (Istodax®) in combination with doxorubicin HCl liposomal (Doxil®) for adult patients with relapsed or refractory cutaneous T-cell lymphoma after at least 2 lines of skin-directed therapy or one prior line of systemic therapy. Patients will be treated with Doxil 20mg/m2 on day 1 and romidepsin 8-14mg/m2 on days 1, 8 and 15, every 28 days, until 2 cycles beyond the best response, 8 cycles, disease progression or intolerability whichever comes first. Importantly, doxil is administered prior to romidepsin on day1 of each cycle. Patients will be followed until disease progression or death whichever comes first.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of temsirolimus when given together with brentuximab vedotin in treating patients with Hodgkin lymphoma that has returned or has not responded to treatment. Temsirolimus may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Biological therapies, such as brentuximab vedotin, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Giving temsirolimus with brentuximab vedotin may work better in treating patients with Hodgkin lymphoma.
Participants with relapsed or refractory leukemia or lymphoma will be recruited for this study to find whether or not the addition of a new drug called bendamustine will be safe and possible to give with other chemotherapy drugs. This drug is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of other cancers in adults that are similar to those being studied in the research trial. PRIMARY OBJECTIVES - To establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of bendamustine in combination with clofarabine and etoposide in pediatric participants with hematologic malignancies. - To characterize the safety profile and dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) of bendamustine in combination with clofarabine and etoposide. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES - To estimate event-free survival at 4 months. - To estimate minimal residual disease (MRD) levels present at end of each cycle of therapy in participants with leukemia. - To characterize the pharmacokinetic profile of bendamustine in the proposed regimen.
