Filter by:The main aim of the study was to evaluate the clinical impact of different DMSO concentrations in cryopreservation mixture (5%, 7.5%, 10%) on reconstitution of hematopoiesis after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
Currently, a majority of lymphomas cannot be cured by standard chemo-radiotherapy. Cluster of differentiation antigen 30 (CD30) is expressed in many lymphoma subtypes, such as Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL). CD30 represents a very attractive target for chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-based immune cell therapy. This study will evaluate a novel 4th generation CD30 CAR engineered with a self-withdrawal mechanism (FKBP-iCasp9) for both efficacy and safety evaluation in lymphoma patients.
Background: - Researchers want to develop better ways to treat cancer. In this study, they will give people with cancer two drugs. These drugs have been used on their own to treat some blood cell cancers. Objectives: - To test the safety and efficacy of the drug combination of bortezomib and clofarabine. Eligibility: - Adults age 18 and over with advanced cancer that has progressed after receiving standard treatment or that has no effective therapy. Design: - Participants will be screened with medical history, physical exam, and scans to measure their tumors. They will also have heart, blood, and urine tests. All of these may be done by their regular doctors. - Participants will get the study drugs in 21-day cyles. They will stay at the clinic for week 1 of every cycle, then have 2 weeks off. <TAB>- Bortezomib will be injected under the skin on days 1 and 4. <TAB>- Clofarabine will be injected in a vein for days 1-5. - During cycle 1 only, participants will go to the clinic or their doctor to have a physical exam and blood tests at the start of the second and third week. - Participants will have clinical evaluations throughout the study, including before receiving treatment and then before the start of each cycle. - Participants may stay in the study as long as they are tolerating the drugs and their tumor is not getting worse. - Participants will have follow-up for 30 days after the last dose of study drugs. - The first part of this study tests the safety of different doses of clofarabine and bortezomib. - The second part of this study involves a separate group of participants who will undergo mandatory research biopsies to learn more about the effects of clofarabine and bortezomib on cancer cells.
In an attempt to reduce relapse risk and improve outcomes following haploidentical transplantation for patients with high risk hematologic malignancies, the investigators will implement several strategies to augment the well documented effect of NK cell alloreactivity seen in HLA-mismatched transplantation. These strategies include (1) choosing potential haploidentical donors for optimal NK-alloreactivity, (2) utilizing proteasome inhibition post-transplant with MLN9708 to both sensitize tumor cells to NK cytotoxicity and protect against graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and (3) eliminating mycophenolate mofetil from the post-transplant immunosuppression regimen to improve NK cell reconstitution following haploidentical peripheral blood stem cell transplantation.
The main aim of this study is to observe correction of the hemoglobin level in the patients under chemotherapy, treated with epoetin alfa biosimilar and presenting with a solid tumor or a lymphoma or a myeloma.
To investigate the dosage of RRx-001 by the subcutaneous route.
TSR-011 is a potent small molecule inhibitor of tyrosine kinases involved in cancer, including: 1. Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) 2. The tropomyosin-related kinases TRKA, TRKB, and TRKC This is a sequential, open-label, non-randomized study with dose escalation in Phase 1, followed by expansion at a recommended phase 2 dose.
Background: - TRC102 is a new cancer treatment drug that may help improve the results of chemotherapy. It blocks tumor cells' attempts to repair damaged DNA, which may allow chemotherapy to kill the cells more easily. Researchers want to see how well it works with temozolomide, a chemotherapy drug that is designed to damage tumor cell DNA. These drugs will be given to people who have advanced solid tumors or lymphomas that have not responded to earlier treatments. Objectives: - To test the safety and effectiveness of TRC102 and temozolomide for advanced solid tumors and lymphomas. Eligibility: - Individuals at least 18 years of age who have advanced solid tumors or lymphomas that have not responded to earlier treatments. Design: - Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Blood and urine samples will be collected. Tumor samples may also be collected. The size and location of the tumors will be determined with imaging studies. - Participants will take TRC102 and temozolomide for 28-day cycles of treatment. They will take temozolomide and TRC 102 by mouth once a day on days 1-5. Participants will keep a diary to record doses and any side effects. - Treatment will be monitored with frequent blood tests and imaging studies. Tumor samples will also be collected. - Participants will continue their treatment as long as the cancer does not grow and there are no severe side effects.
The development of endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) and EBUS-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) has improved the safety and diagnostic accuracy of the mediastinal lymph node (MLN) sampling. Still, in some diseases routine cytological specimens are considered insufficient and histological sampling is preferred. The aim of the study is to compare the diagnostic accuracy of EBUS-TBNA and two other, more invasive procedures to obtain histological samples from MLN in patients with clinical and radiological features of sarcoidosis. Bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), EBUS-TBNA, EBUS guided transbronchial forceps biopsy (EBUS-TBFB), large bore (19G) histology TBNA as well as endobronchial forceps biopsy will be performed in 90 consecutive patients with mediastinal lymph node enlargement and clinical and radiological features of sarcoidosis. Diagnostic accuracy of each sampling technique will be calculated and compared to other techniques. Diagnostic yield of different technique combinations will also be calculated and the most efficient diagnostic approach will be defined.
To study the safety and efficacy of CD20 antibody usage followed by CIK transfusion in refractory and/or chemoresistant lymphomas.
