Filter by:This protocol will enroll subjects with advanced hematologic malignancies who do not have a suitable related or unrelated donor to undergo a Stem Cell Transplant. In this study, subjects will undergo a Stem Cell Transplant using Cord Blood. Part of the cord blood will be used for the Stem Cell Transplant and part of the cord blood will be sent to a laboratory in order to grow the T cells (from the cord blood) and increase the activity of the cord blood T cells. The purpose of this part of the study is to see if it is safe to give study subjects activated T cells made from a small portion of their donor UCB unit immediately after the UCB transplant. Activated T cells have been used safely in stem cell transplantation studies in the past, but they have never been studied UCB transplantation.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of sunitinib malate in treating human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients with cancer receiving antiretroviral therapy. Sunitinib malate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor.
This study examines the role of a diagnostic test called Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scanning in patients with malignant lymphoma. The primary goal of this study is to find out how well PET scanning can detect malignant (cancerous) lymphoma, and how often this extra information will result in a change of stage of disease, or will result in a change in treatment management plans of patients with lymphoma.
Primary Objective: - To determine if there is significant toxicity associated with the administration of CD34-TK75 transduced donor lymphocytes after allogeneic BMT for relapsed hematologic malignancies Secondary Objectives: - To determine if the patient develops any evidence of anti-leukemic effect from the administration of CD34-TK75 transduced donor lymphocytes - To determine if ganciclovir administration to patients who develop Graft versus Host Disease (GVHD)results in clinical improvement after infusions of CD34-TK75 transduced lymphocytes. Sub-Study Objective The primary purpose is to perform PET imaging of CD34-TK transduced allogeneic donor T cells in patients who have relapsed hematologic malignancies after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT). At this time the limited amount of cGMP quality virus produced by the NGVL will likely permit the imaging of only 3 patients. Consequently our current objective will be to establish that the TK-expressing cells can be detected by 18FHBG-PET in patient organs relevant for performing additional studies that are currently in the planning stages and for which we are working to produce additional virus. The ultimate objective will be to use the TK substrate 18FHBG to locate the donor T cells within the recipient as they exert anti-leukemic effects, and the T cells can then be eliminated in response to in vivo administration of ganciclovir, before morbidity and mortality from GvHD occurs. We will use the imaging strategy to define patterns of T cell trafficking in humans pre and post-DLI infusion, and to determine where the cells reside while they mediate GVL in contrast to GvHD. We expect to obtain in vivo PET imaging markers predictive of GvHD before clinical symptoms occur.
This phase II trial studies giving rituximab before and after a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant in patients with B-cell lymphoma that does not respond to treatment (refractory) or has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed). Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving rituximab before and after a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant may help stop cancer from coming back and may help keep the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells.
This clinical trial is studying how well giving fludarabine phosphate and melphalan together with total-body irradiation followed by donor stem cell transplant works in treating patients with hematologic cancer or bone marrow failure disorders. Giving low doses of chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells or abnormal cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer or abnormal cells (graft-versus-tumor effect)
The purpose of this study is to reduce the risk of radiation related side effects and complications by treating with radiation (protons or photons) that exposes less of normal organs to low dose radiation.
This is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter, pivotal clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of brentuximab vedotin (SGN-35) as a single agent in patients with relapsed or refractory Hodgkin lymphoma.
This is a research study intended to further investigate the safety and efficacy of plerixafor in patients with NHL, HD, or MM. Patients who have previously failed stem cell mobilisation attempts or who have previously received more than one autologous or any allogeneic stem cell transplant are not eligible.
This is an exploratory study to study the efficacy of combination regimen of Oncaspar/Doxil/Decadron (ODD) in patients with refractory lymphoid malignancies. Patients with any form of lymphoid malignancy will be eligible: acute lymphoblastic leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, Hodgkin's lymphoma, multiple myeloma and plasma cell leukemia. Patients must have failed standard regimens for their cancers and could have had unlimited number of prior regimens. Patients will be staged appropriately for their disease with clinical examination, laboratory tests, and imaging studies. Both Oncaspar and Doxil will be given on day 1 and 15. Patients will be clinically evaluated prior to each cycle and will have disease assessments every 2 cycles. Responding patients will continue therapy until disease progression or excessive toxicity. Responders who are candidates for allogenic stem cell transplantation could go to conditioning chemotherapy and stem cell transplant after 4 cycles of ODD.
