Filter by:RATIONALE: Giving high doses of chemotherapy drugs, such as busulfan and cyclophosphamide, before a donor bone marrow transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's 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. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving cyclosporine, methylprednisolone, and methotrexate after transplant may stop this from happening. PURPOSE: This clinical trial studies high-dose busulfan and high-dose cyclophosphamide followed by donor bone marrow transplant in treating patients with leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, multiple myeloma, or recurrent Hodgkin or Non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
Objectives: Primary objective: - Phase-I: To determine the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) of panobinostat (LBH589) + Ifosfamide + Mesna, Carboplatin and Etoposide (ICE) combination - Randomized Phase-II: To estimate the complete response (CR) rate in patients with relapsed and refractory classical Hodgkins Lymphoma (HL) receiving ICE versus PANOBINOSTAT plus ICE therapy Secondary Objectives: - To assess the safety and tolerability of the novel combination of PANOBINOSTAT (LBH589) plus ICE versus ICE in patients with relapsed and refractory HL - To estimate the overall response rate (CR + partial response PR) - To estimate the success rate of stem cell collection in patients eligible for stem cell transplant - To estimate the percentage of patients who subsequently undergo autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) - To estimate the event free survival (EFS) at 1 year after randomization - To determine pretreatment expression level of histone deacetylases (HDAC1), HDAC2, and pSTAT3 and Signal transducer and activator of transcription protein (pSTAT6) by Immunohistochemistry (IHC) and correlate the results with treatment response
This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of bendamustine hydrochloride when given together with carboplatin, etoposide, and rituximab in treating patients with diffuse large B cell lymphoma or Hodgkin lymphoma that has come back after a period of improvement or has not responded to previous treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bendamustine hydrochloride, etoposide, and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, may block cancer growth by targeting certain cells. Giving bendamustine hydrochloride together with carboplatin, etoposide, and rituximab may kill more cancer cells.
The aim of this study is to evaluate Plerixafor (MOZOBIL) plus recombinant human G-CSF (G-CSF) efficiency in mobilizing sufficient number of stem cells from Lymphoma (NHL and HL) patients for autologous transplantation.
This phase I clinical trial is studying the side effects and best dose of RO4929097 when given together with capecitabine in treating patients with refractory solid tumors. RO4929097 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving RO4929097 together with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells.
This study will gather information about the combination the drugs plerixafor with sargramostim in donors of blood-forming cells (stem cells). These stem cells will be collected from the donor and transplanted into their sibling. The investigators believe that the two drugs together will provide enough stem cells for transplantation and may also reduce the risk of graft versus host disease.
The purpose of this study is to determine the long-term (> 6 months) safety of PCI 24781 PO in subjects with lymphoma.
The investigators are interested in identifying patient-specific factors related to donor chimerism in patients who receive nonmyeloablative hematopoietic stem cell transplants from haploidentical donors. We will look how patients' bodies break down and immediately respond to cyclophosphamide, fludarabine and mycophenolate mofetil.
We hope to determine the importance of different genes (including B receptors) in anthracycline-induced cardiomyopathy. This has important benefits to patients exposed to anthracyclines, as this could help determine whether certain individuals have increased susceptibility to cardiac injury.
This phase II trial studies how well chemotherapy based on positron emission tomography (PET) scan works in treating patients with stage I or stage II Hodgkin lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill cancer cells. Giving combination chemotherapy together with radiation therapy may kill more cancer cells and allow doctors to save the part of the body where the cancer started. Comparing results of diagnostic procedures, such as PET scan, done before, during, and after chemotherapy may help doctors predict a patient's response to treatment and help plan the best treatment.
