Filter by:This phase I/II trial studies the side effect and best dose of entospletinib when giving together with obinutuzumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, small lymphocytic lymphoma, or non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has come back. Entospletinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes need for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as obinutuzumab, may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving entospletinib and obinutuzumab together may work better in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, small lymphocytic lymphoma, or non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
Hairy-cell leukemia is a rare and indolent lymphoid disorder, representing 2% of all cases of lymphoid leukemias. Treatment of hairy-cell leukemia relies mainly on the purine analogs, cladribine and pentostatin, which have shown similar efficacy and constitute the gold standard of care either as front-line therapy or for relapsed patients. However, despite the remarkable response rates obtained with purine analogs therapy, some patients will eventually relapse and the efficacy of these agents seems to decrease at each line of treatment. The addition of new molecules to purine analogs may improve the response rates and prevent relapse. Rituximab is a chimeric IgG1 kappa-type monoclonal antibody directed against the CD20 molecule. It was first used in relapsed patients with hairy-cell leukemia more than 10 years ago and several series of patients treated with rituximab as monotherapy were published in the following decade, reporting response rates ranging from 25% to 80%.
The study will test the effectiveness (rate of complete remissions, total remission rate and duration of remission) and toxicity of the combined immuno/chemotherapy with subcutaneous cladribine (LITAK®) plus anti-CD20* antibody rituximab in patients requiring treatment for relapsed hairy cell leukaemia or hairy cell leukaemia variant independent of any previous therapy. CD20* = cluster of differentiation antigen 20
This clinical trial studies peripheral blood hemapoietic stem cell mobilization with the combination of bortezomib and G-CSF (filgrastim) in multiple myeloma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients.
This clinical trial studies personalized dose monitoring of busulfan and combination chemotherapy in treating patients with Hodgkin or non-Hodgkin lymphoma undergoing stem cell transplant. Giving chemotherapy before a stem cell transplant stops the growth of cancer cells by stopping them from dividing or killing them. After treatment, stem cells are collected from the patient's peripheral blood or bone marrow and stored. The stem cells are then returned to the patient to replace the blood-forming cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy. Monitoring the dose of busulfan may help doctors deliver the most accurate dose and reduce toxicity in patients undergoing stem cell transplant.
This pilot phase II trial studies how well giving donor T cells after donor stem cell transplant works in treating patients with hematologic malignancies. In a donor stem cell transplant, the donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Giving an infusion of the donor's T cells (donor lymphocyte infusion) after the transplant may help increase this effect.
Background: - Moxetumomab pasudotox is an experimental non-chemotherapy cancer treatment drug. It targets CD22, a molecule on the surface of essentially all hairy cell leukemia cells. Moxetumomab pasudotox binds to CD22, goes into the cell, and releases a toxin which kills the cell. In a phase I trial it had activity in relapsed/refractory hairy cell leukemia with safety profile supporting further clinical study (http://ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22355053). This is a phase III multicenter trial designed to confirm these results.
This pilot phase II trial studies how well giving vorinostat, tacrolimus, and methotrexate works in preventing graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after stem cell transplant in patients with hematological malignancies. Vorinostat, tacrolimus, and methotrexate may be an effective treatment for GVHD caused by a bone marrow transplant.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of MORAb-004 in treating young patients with recurrent or refractory solid tumors or lymphoma. Monoclonal antibodies, such as MORAb-004, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them
The presence of a specific mutation in the gene known as B-RAF has been found in patients who have Hairy Cell Leukemia. In this study this specific mutation known as V600E will be ascertained in peripheral blood samples of patients who have this disease and in a group of patients who have a similar chronic lymphoproliferative conditions such as splenic marginal lymphoma. The finding of this specific mutation will help to verify or exclude the diagnosis of Hairy Cell Leukemia and determine whether patients are in remission.
