Filter by:Background: Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) are cancers often treated with the drug ibrutinib. For some people, ibrutinib stops working. Researchers want to see if adding another drug can help. Objective: To test how people with ibrutinib-resistant CLL respond to duvelisib. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with CLL or SLL that is no longer responding to ibrutinib or has developed mutations that could stop it from working Design: Participants will be screened with: - Medical history - Physical exam - Heart tests - Blood and urine tests - CT scan. For this, participants will have a dye injected into a vein. They will lie in a machine that takes pictures of the body. - Bone marrow biopsy. For this, a needle injected into the participant s bone will remove marrow. - Optional lymph node biopsy. For this, the participants whole lymph node or part of it will be removed through the skin. - Optional lymphapheresis. For this, the participants blood is removed through a vein in one arm, the white blood cells separated out, and the blood returned through a vein in the other arm. Participants will take duvelisib twice daily by mouth. They will continue ibrutinib at their current dose for the first 6 months. They will continue to take duvelisib until their CLL/SLL stops responding or they develop intolerable side effects. Participants will take an antibiotic and antiviral medication. They may take steroids. Participants will have blood tests every 2 weeks during the first 2 months. Participants will have monthly follow-up visits during the first 6 months and every 3 months thereafter. These will include repeats of some of the screening tests.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of a chemotherapy regimen given by continuous intravenous infusion (CI-CLAM), and to see how well it works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) or other high-grade myeloid neoplasms. Drugs used in CI-CLAM include cladribine, cytarabine and mitoxantrone, and work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Continuous intravenous infusion involves giving drugs over a time duration of equal to or more than 24 hours. Giving CLAM via continuous infusion may result in fewer side effects and have similar effectiveness when compared to giving CLAM over the shorter standard amount of time.
The purpose of this study is to test a combination treatment of acalabrutunib when given together with rituximab-ifosfamide-carboplatin-etoposide (R-ICE) to evaluate if it will be able to improve durable responses and cure some patients.
This is a phase Ib study with a 3 + 3 dose escalation design followed by a dose-expansion phase.
Relapse after an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is high in patients with advanced AML, in the 50% range. NK cells have been shown to possess significant anti-leukemic activity and may be used to reduce the incidence of relapse in patients with advanced AML. Investigators hypothesize that the administration of a purified boost of NK cells on day +7 post HSCT, will reduce the incidence of relapse from the current 50% to 25%. In a phase III multicenter clinical study, 116 patients will be randomized to receive or not a boost of donor NK cells on day +7 post-HSCT. The first 10 patients in the experimental arm will be analyzed for toxicity. The stopping rule will be a transplant related mortality of more than 50% in the first 20 patients who received NK cells.
The purpose of this study is to see how safe and effective the investigational drug umbralisib (TGR-1202) is in individuals with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)
Background: -Cluster of differentiation 19 (CD19) and cluster of differentiation 20 (CD20) are often found on certain cancer cells. Researchers think that a person's T cells can be modified in a lab to kill cells that have CD19 and CD20 on the surface. Objective: -To see if it is safe to give anti-CD19 and anti-CD20 CAR T cells to people with a B cell cancer or Hodgkin lymphoma. Eligibility: -People ages 18 and older with a B cell cancer or Hodgkin lymphoma that has not been controlled with standard therapies Design: - Participants will be screened under protocol 01C0129 with: - Medical history - Physical exam - Blood and heart tests - Bone marrow biopsy: A needle is inserted into the participant's hip bone to remove a small amount of marrow. Scans - Participants will have apheresis: Blood will be removed through a vein. The blood with circulate through a machine that removes the T cells. The rest of the blood will be returned to the participant. - Once a day for 3 days before they get the T cells, participants will receive chemotherapy through a vein. - Participants will receive the T cells through a vein. They will stay in the hospital for at least 9 days. - Participants may have a lumbar puncture: A needle will remove fluid from the spinal cord. - Participants may have a tumor biopsy. - Participants will repeat the screening tests throughout the study. - Participants will have follow-up visits 2 weeks after infusion; monthly for 4 months; at 6, 9, and 12 months; every 6 months for 3 years; and then annually for 5 years. Participants will then be contacted annually for 15 years.
This trial studies how well bendamustine and rituximab in combination with copanlisib work in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bendamustine and rituximab, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Copanlisib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving bendamustine and rituximab with copanlisib may work better than bendamustine and rituximab alone in treating chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma.
To evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and efficacy of ASTX660 when given alone and in combination with ASTX727 in participants with relapsed/refractory (R/R) acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The duration of the study is expected to be approximately 30 months.
Leukemia is the most common form of cancer (29%) in children, adolescents, and young adults (AYA) (CNIB Report, 2017). Current treatments for leukemia (conventional chemotherapy or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation) can lead to significant side effects, acute or chronic, which can lead to impaired physical abilities and reduced quality of life for patients in short, medium or long term. For children and AYA with cancer, adapted physical activity (APA) is now recommended even if the scientific evidence of its benefit is still insufficient.
