Immunotherapy with the monoclonal anti-CD20 antibody rituximab has become standard of care for patients with follicular lymphoma. However, there are still open questions regarding dosing and scheduling of rituximab, optimal type of chemotherapeutic combination partners during induction as well as the best interval and length of rituximab maintenance treatment. Fludarabine-mitoxantrone combinations have shown strong debulking activity as initial therapy followed by rituximab maintenance. While rituximab maintenance with a standard dose of 375 mg/m2 prolongs clinical remissions, administration schedules still vary: Three-monthly infusions for 2 years and two-monthly infusions for one or 2 years are most frequently used. A few pharmacokinetic data for rituximab have been reported for induction treatment. These studies have proposed a presumptive "active" level of 25.000 ng/ml in anti-lymphoma treatment. However, there is only limited information regarding maintenance treatment in patients who are in remission and have no remaining tumor load. The aim of this trial is to investigate the effect of treatment with oral Fludarabine, Mitoxantrone und Rituximab and Rituximab maintenance on the depth of remission measured by BCL2/IgH PCR.
In spite of high initial response rate after a first line treatment by R-polychemotherapy, cutaneous but also extra-cutaneous recurrences occur after 2 years in about half of the patients with PCBCL-LT. Thereafter there is no consensus concerning patients care: radiotherapy has only a palliative effect, advanced age often limits using more aggressive chemotherapies and no treatment has demonstrated a prolonged efficacy in these relapsing cases. Therefore new alternatives therapeutic options are needed. Lenalidomide has an antineoplastic pro-apoptotic effect but also immunomodulatory, and antiangiogenic properties. Preliminary results suggest its efficacy in relapsing or refractory diffuse large B-cells lymphomas, especially of nongerminal cells phenotype. By analogy with these results, lenalidomide appears as an attractive candidate in PCLBCL-LT, more specially as it has a manageable toxicity even in advanced age patients. If the lenalidomide efficacy is confirmed in relapsing PCLBCL-LT, this will plead its evaluation as maintenance therapy after R-chemotherapy in order to avoid recurrences.
Phase I/II, single-center, dose-escalation study of the safety, pharmacokinetics, dosimetry, and efficacy of TST/I-131 TST for the treatment of patients with chemotherapy-refractory or resistant low-grade, intermediate-grade, or high-grade B-cell lymphoma. Subjects received 1 to 3 dosimetric doses followed by a therapeutic dose of TST/I-131 TST. Study BEX104526 was a follow-up study of the long-term safety and efficacy data from the surviving patients who completed at least 2 years of follow-up following administration of TST/I 131 TST on Study BEX104728. Dosimetric dose: Subjects received 1 to 3 dosimetric doses of TST/I-131 TST, followed by a therapeutic dose of TST/I-131 TST. Subjects received various doses of unlabeled TST (0, 95 or 475 mg) to determine the dose of unlabeled TST that optimized the radiation dose delivered to the tumor by TST/I-131 TST. The unlabeled TST was followed by 5 milliCurie (mCi) of I-131 TST. Serial whole body sodium iodide scintillation probe counts were obtained daily, for at least 5 days, in order to determine the rate of whole body clearance of radioactivity (residence time). The residence time was used to determine the radioactive clearance for the subject and the activity (in mCi) of I-131 required to deliver the desired TBD of radiation during the therapeutic dose. Because 475 mg was determined to be the optimal pre-dose of TST in the first subjects entered, the last 34 subjects received a single dosimetric dose that was preceded by an infusion of 475 mg of TST. Therapeutic dose: Groups of 3-6 subjects were enrolled at successively higher whole-body radiation dose levels beginning at a total body dose (TBD) of 25 centiGray (cGy). The TBD of each subsequent dose level was escalated by 10 cGy. Subjects who had undergone bone marrow transplantation (BMT) underwent a separate dose escalation (10 cGy TBD increase per dose level) beginning at a TBD level of 65 cGy. The MTD was defined as the highest dose level at which 0/3 or 1/6 subjects experienced dose-limiting toxicity (DLT). DLT was defined as follows: Any Grade 4 hematologic toxicity (National Cancer Institute [NCI] criteria) lasting greater than 7 days, or Any Grade 3 hematologic toxicity lasting greater than 2 weeks, or Any Grade 3 or 4 nonhematologic toxicity Redosing. Subjects who achieved tumor regression were considered for re-dosing, using the original therapeutic dose of TST/I-131 TST, at the time the tumor was no longer shrinking in an attempt to upgrade their response. Retreatment. Subjects who achieved partial (PR) or complete response (CR) were considered for retreatment following relapse of their NHL, if progression occurred ≥6 weeks following the therapeutic dose. The original therapeutic dose of TST/I-131 TST was given unless a grade 2 or greater toxicity had been encountered, in which case a reduced dose was administered for the repeat therapeutic dose.
This is an open label phase I study of Inotuzumab Ozogamicin, an antibody-targeted intravenous chemotherapy agent composed of a CD22-targeted antibody linked to calicheamicin, in combination with the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor Temsirolimus, in patients with relapsed/refractory CD22+ B-cell non Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHLs). Both Inotuzumab Ozogamicin and Temsirolimus have been evaluated as single agents as well as in combination with rituximab in patients with NHLs. This is the first study combining the two agents together. In the present study Inotuzumab Ozogamicin will be administered intravenously on d1 at the starting dose of 0.8 /m2. Temsirolimus will be administered intravenously on days 1,8,15 and 22 at the starting dose of 15mg. Cycles will be repeated every 28 days.
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
Treatment of adult patients with Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL), relapsed or refractory to previous CHOP-R (or CHOP-R like regimen) front line therapy, relapsed or refractory to second or subsequent salvage therapies which included high dose therapy with autologous stem cell support (ASCT). Treatment of adult patients with DLBCL relapsed or refractory to front line therapy with CHOP-R (or CHOP-R like regimen) or subsequent treatments, who are not consider eligible for ASCT consolidation because of age, co-morbidities, impossibility to perform ASCT. The trial is conducted according to the optimal two-stage design of Simon with alpha 0.05 and beta 0.10, considering the following two hypotheses: first a response rate (RR) less than 10% is of no further interest; and second, an RR 30% is clinically meaningful. In the initial stage, 18 patients have to enter onto the study. If less than 3 responses (</=2 in 18) will be observed, the trial would be terminated. Otherwise, accrual will continue to a total of a maximum of 35 patients. At the end of the trial, if 6 or fewer responses will occur among the 35 patients (</= 6 in 35), it will be concluded that the regimen is not worthy of further investigations for that group of patients. The treatment is divided in three phases: induction phase (course 1 to 6), consolidation phase (courses 7 to 12), maintenance phase (from course 13 until the end of therapy for any reason).
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
The purpose is to test whether dose densified chemoimmunotherapy followed by central nervous system (CNS) prophylaxis for young high risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients is feasible and could improve time to treatment failure and reduce the risk of CNS relapses. Six courses of rituximab-cyclophosphamide-doxorubicin-etoposide-vincristine-prednison (R-CHOEP) given in two weeks intervals with the support of G-CSF is followed by one course of high dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) and high dose cytarabine (HD-Ara-C). The results will be compared to a historical Nordic study.
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of fostamatinib (200 mg twice a day) in patients with worsening or unmanageable lymphoma with a specific type of lymphoma called Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (abbreviated as DLBCL)
