Filter by:This randomized phase I trial studies the side effects of vaccine therapy in preventing cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in patients with hematological malignancies undergoing donor stem cell transplant. Vaccines made from a tetanus-CMV peptide or antigen may help the body build an effective immune response and prevent or delay the recurrence of CMV infection in patients undergoing donor stem cell transplant for hematological malignancies.
Extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma (MZBL) of the mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT-lymphoma) represents a distinct clinical entity and is the most common form of extranodal lymphoma, with a predilection for the stomach. About 90% of gastric MALT-lymphomas are associated with infection with Helicobacter pylori (HP) and eradication of the pathogen leads to regression of the tumor in a high percentage of patients at early tumour stages. Nevertheless, following complete remission after HP-eradication, the risk of relapse justifies lifelong follow-up examinations. Supported by recent findings at the investigators department, endoscopic controls should include a close examination of the small bowel, as relapses can involve different gastrointestinal sites. To continue the investigators diagnostic approach as well as to further improve the detection rate of MALT-lymphoma relapses, the investigators plan to introduce the novel confocal laser endomicroscope (CLE) into the diagnostic management of MALT-lymphoma patients. In the context of a prospective clinical pilot trial the investigators aim to establish MALT-lymphoma specific CLE-markers that can be used for the in vivo diagnosis of the disease. Comparing endomicroscopic findings, drawn from the stomach and small bowel of 50 MALT-lymphoma patients who will undergo staging or follow up endoscopies at the investigators department, to the histological evaluation of biopsy samples as present gold standard, the investigators want to determine whether CLE can provide reliable data for the accurate detection of MALT-lymphoma associated changes. Endomicroscopic aspects of patients with chronic gastritis, gastric adenocarcinoma and healthy subjects should serve as controls. In comparison to random biopsies which represent the current standard, the investigators aim to prove, whether endomicroscopy will find MALT-lymphoma lesions more accurately and thus help to spare patients unnecessary biopsies.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of alisertib when given together with vorinostat in treating patients with Hodgkin lymphoma, B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, or peripheral T-cell lymphoma that has come back. Alisertib and vorinostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
This pilot clinical trial studies mechanical stimulation in preventing bone density loss in patients undergoing donor stem cell transplant. Mechanical stimulation may limit, prevent, or reverse bone loss, increase muscle and cardiac performance, and improve overall health
This phase II trial studies how well giving fludarabine phosphate, melphalan, and low-dose total-body irradiation (TBI) followed by donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant (PBSCT) works in treating patients with hematologic malignancies. Giving chemotherapy drugs such as fludarabine phosphate and melphalan, and low-dose TBI before a donor PBSCT helps stop the growth of cancer and abnormal cells and helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from the donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cell from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), and methotrexate after transplant may stop this from happening
This phase 1 trial studies the side effects and the best dose of donor CD8+ memory T-cells in treating patients with hematolymphoid malignancies. Giving low dose of chemotherapy before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer 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 cells (graft-versus-cancer effects). Giving an infusion of the donor's T cells (donor lymphocyte infusion) after the transplant may help increase this effect
This is a prospective, phase II study on the activity and tolerability of high dose (2 g/day) oral clarithromycin for the treatment of relapsed or refractory extranodal marginal zone lymphoma.
Phase II, monocentric, open label study to assess safety and activity of intralesional Rituximab for the treatment of indolent CD20+ lymphoma of conjunctiva.
Vorinostat is a drug (Histone Deacetylase Inhibitor [HDACi]) administered orally that has been approved in United States for the patients with cutaneous Tcell lymphoma (CTCL) who have progressive, persistent or recurrent disease on or following two systemic therapies. In the early period of treatment with vorinostat, some patients may experience low platelet counts. Therefore this study will be examining the combination of these two medications (Vorinostat and eltrombopag) to assess if eltrombopag can overcome the low platelets during treatment with vorinostat. Eltrombopag is a drug administered orally designed to mimic the protein thrombopoietin, which causes the body to make more platelets. Eltrombopag has been registered in Australia and approved overseas to treat patients with chronic ITP (Immune Thrombocytopenia Purpura) a disease where patients destroy their own platelets very rapidly and thus develop low platelet count) but it is not registered and it is not yet known whether eltrombopag can increase platelet counts in patients treated with the HDACi. The aim of this project is to test whether Vorinostat and eltrombopag can be safely combined, and to test whether they are effective in participants with T-cell lymphoma involving the skin or patients with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma (FL), marginal zone lymphoma (MZL), or mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) A total of 25 people with Cutaneous T cell lymphoma/ CTCL, marginal zone lymphoma, follicular lymphoma or mantle cell lymphoma will be recruited in this study.
This randomized pilot clinical trial studies how well giving prolonged infusion compared to standard infusion of cefepime hydrochloride works in treating patients with febrile neutropenia. Giving cefepime hydrochloride over a longer period of time may be more effective than giving cefepime hydrochloride over the standard time.
