Filter by:Aromatherapy has anecdotally been reported to decrease nausea and vomiting, decrease anxiety and increase quality of life in cancer patients. Therefore, the proposed study aims to assess the effectiveness of aromatherapy versus placebo on nausea, vomiting, anxiety and quality of life among pediatric oncology patients receiving emetogenic chemotherapy.
This study evaluated the efficacy of oral panobinostat in participants with refractory/relapsed classical Hodgkins lymphoma (HL) who have received prior treatment with high dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplant. Safety of panobinostat also was assessed. Other markers that may correlate with efficacy or safety were explored.
This is a Phase 1 dose escalation study to determine the maximum tolerated dose and the dose limiting toxicities of SB1518 when given alone once daily by mouth to subjects with advanced lymphoid malignancies.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous AMD3100 added to a standard G-CSF mobilization regimen of patients undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation for lymphoma. We hypothesize that after stem cell mobilization with G-CSF plus IV AMD3100, a significantly higher proportion of lymphoma patients will collect ≥ 2 x 10E6 CD34+ cells/kg.
The first part of the study will determine the highest dose of study drug that can be taken without causing serious side effects in patients with lymphoma. The appropriate dose determined from the first part of the study will be used in the second part of the study to assess disease response in 2 different types of lymphoma patients.
This is an open-label, multicenter, phase 1, dose escalation study of MLN4924 in adult patients with lymphoma or multiple myeloma. The patient population will consist of adults with a confirmed diagnosis of lymphoma (Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia is permitted) or multiple myeloma that is relapsed and/or refractory after at least 2 prior standard chemotherapeutic regimens and for which no curative option exists. Patients in the expansion cohort, Schedule E, must specifically have Hodgkin lymphoma, DLBCL-GCB subtype, DLBCL-non-GCB subtype, or Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL). Patients with multiple myeloma will no longer be evaluated as a part of this study.
The purpose of this study is to estimate the maximum tolerated dose of dexamethasone given for 5 consecutive days when combined with fixed doses of irinotecan (given IV, qd x 5, 2 days off, qd x 5) and vincristine (given IV, 2 doses total on days 1 and 8 of schedule) in children with relapsed or refractory hematologic malignancies. In addition we will also study the pharmacokinetics of irinotecan when given without and then with dexamethasone in each patient, evaluate the relationship between irinotecan pharmacokinetic parameters and toxicity and describe any antitumor effects.
The aims and objectives of this research are to identify chronic health conditions, psychological disease, quality of life issues, and patient preferences for survivorship care in patients who have survived aggressive lymphoma. Subjects will be asked to participate in an oral interview with the primary investigator, either in-person or over the telephone. It is estimated that the survey will take about an hour.
One of two different doses of thymoglobulin will allow bone marrow engraftment with minimal Graft-versus-Host Disease and allow adequate immune response to allow the transplanted stem cells to replace the tumor cells.
The standard treatment for patients with HL that has not responded to treatment or has come back after treatment is stem cell transplant. When patients are not eligible for transplant or when HL comes back after transplant, there are no standard treatment options. These patients can receive chemotherapy or participate in clinical trials. Bendamustine HCl is a chemotherapy agent that is effective in treating patients with various diseases, including non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, multiple myeloma, and breast cancer. It was recently approved for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia. In addition, small studies from Eastern Europe have shown that bendamustine HCl is likely effective for treating HL. This study will find out the effect of bendamustine HCl for transplant-ineligible patients with HL that has not responded to or has come back after treatment.
