Filter by:Hodgkin's Lymphoma (HL) is a neoplasm that affects the lymph nodes and the lymphatic system. In Mexico, HL is the seventh most incident cancer and the ninth with the highest mortality. It is characterized by the presence of Reed-Sternberg (HRS) cells derived from B cells of the germinal center. They harbor mutations that activate the NF-κB pathway, favoring cell survival and their reprogramming. Currently, the available therapeutic options are chemotherapy and radiotherapy, achieving cure rates of 75% in patients in advanced stages, in which 70% of these are found at the time of diagnosis. The investigators proposed the use of pentoxifylline (PTX) as a therapeutic option to enhance the antitumor effect generated by the treatment since it can increase the efficacy of apoptosis, in vitro and in vivo, induced by doxorubicin, cisplatin, and adriamycin in human leukemic and cervical cancer cells, through inhibition of NF-κB by preventing phosphorylation of serine 32 of the inhibitor κB; it also decreases the expression of Bcl-2 and Bcl-XL, induces the releasement of cytochrome c and caspases 3, 9, and cleavage of caspase 8. The investigators evaluated the effects of PTX during the steroid window phase at induction to remission in pediatric patients with LLA of a recent diagnosis, where it was shown that the combined treatment of prednisone (PRD) with PTX achieves greater percentages of apoptosis compared to individual treatment. In addition, the effect of PTX on the expression of genes associated with apoptosis was evaluated; where it was shown that it activates the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways of apoptosis. Fortilin is a protein whose serum levels increase 2.4 times more after treatment with chemotherapy or radiotherapy in patients with malignancies, so it is considered a specific and sensitive biomarker of early apoptosis in vivo. The present protocol will evaluate the enhancing effect of PTX on tumor apoptosis in combination with chemotherapeutical agents in pediatric and AYA patients with HL. Apoptosis will be measured in vivo by quantifying serum levels of fortilin and cytochrome c in participants before and after treatment by ELISA; as well as an evaluation of the clinical response based on the results of the PET-Scan, overall and event-free survival according to the Kaplan-Meier curves, and the adverse effects associated with the use of PTX according to the common terminology criteria for adverse events and causality algorithms.
This study is a survey in Japan of Brentuximab Vedotin used to treat children or teenagers with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). The study sponsor will not be involved in how the participants are treated but will provide instructions on how the clinics will record what happens during the study. The main aim of the study is to check for side effects related from Brentuximab Vedotin especially myelosupression, peripheral neuropathy, and lung disorder. During the study, pediatric participants with HL will take Brentuximab Vedotin injection and AVD treatment (doxorubicin hydrochloride, vinblastine sulfate, and dacarbazine) according to their clinic's standard practice. The study doctors will check for side effects from Brentuximab Vedotin for 26 weeks.
Tagraxofusp is a protein-drug conjugate consisting of a diphtheria toxin redirected to target CD123 has been approved for treatment in pediatric and adult patients with blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN). This trial aims to examine the safety of this novel agent in pediatric patients with relapsed/refractory hematologic malignancies. The mechanism by which tagraxofusp kills cells is distinct from that of conventional chemotherapy. Tagraxofusp directly targets CD123 that is present on tumor cells, but is expressed at lower or levels or absent on normal hematopoietic stem cells. Tagraxofusp also utilizes a payload that is not cell cycle dependent, making it effective against both highly proliferative tumor cells and also quiescent tumor cells. The rationale for clinical development of tagraxofusp for pediatric patients with hematologic malignancies is based on the ubiquitous and high expression of CD123 on many of these diseases, as well as the highly potent preclinical activity and robust clinical responsiveness in adults observed to date. This trial includes two parts: a monotherapy phase and a combination chemotherapy phase. This design will provide further monotherapy safety data and confirm the FDA approved pediatric dose, as well as provide safety data when combined with chemotherapy. The goal of this study is to improve survival rates in children and young adults with relapsed hematological malignancies, determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of tagraxofusp given alone and in combination with chemotherapy, as well as to describe the toxicities, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamic properties of tagraxofusp in pediatric patients. About 54 children and young adults will participate in this study. Patients with Down syndrome will be included in part 1 of the study.
One of the ways that cancer grows and spreads is by avoiding the immune system.NK cells are immune cells that kill cancer cells, but are often malfunctioning in people with colorectal cancer and blood cancers. A safe way to give people with colorectal cancer and blood cancers fresh NK cells from a healthy donor has recently been discovered. The purpose of this study is to show that using two medicines (vactosertib and IL-2) with NK cells will be safe and will activate the donor NK cells. NK cells and vactosertib are experimental because they are not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). IL-2 (Proleukin®) has been approved by the FDA for treating other cancers, but the doses used in this study are lower than the approved doses and it is not approved to treat colorectal cancer or blood cancers.

It is essential to improve clinical efficiency and management of hematological and oncological patients treated on an outpatient basis. The most promising operative way to achieve this result is the development of tele-oncology platforms, that allow not only a telemedicine visit, but also the patient support in the daily management of the disease and related disorders, as well as treatments and their complications. In this perspective, the RITA communication platform should be able to support the patient, the caregiver, the physician and the general practitioner in the management of the disease and its treatments.
Molecular analysis identifies residual disease by overcoming the sensitivity of imaging methods and therefore has the potential for integrating with therapy provided by FDG-PET alone. It is a well known fact that tumor DNA circulating in plasma (ctDNA) reflects the mutational profile of tumor cells and can be used to non-invasively detect specific mutations of Hodgkin's lymphoma without the need for microdissecting the histological sample.
The addition of targeted immunotherapy will be safe and well tolerated and facilitate the reduction of anthracycline exposure while preserving lymphoma disease control in children, adolescents and young adults (CAYA) with mature B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (MB-NHL) and classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL).
This is a single-center, open label, single dose study of anti CD30 CAR-T cells injection in treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory CD30+ lymphoma.
This clinical trial tests how well a telehealth exercise intervention works to improve cardiovascular health in lymphoma survivors. Telehealth exercise is a service to help perform physical exercises at home with a care provider online. With the use of telehealth exercise lymphoma survivors may be able to participate in exercise programs safely to improve heart health and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
