Filter by:This is a phase II clinical trial in patients who have not received systemic treatment for follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The study combines rituximab, an approved drug for this disease, with AT-101, an experimental drug. The hypothesis is that by adding AT-101 to the rituximab regimen, improvement to patients' response to the treatment will be observed verses rituximab alone.
RATIONALE: Biological therapies, such as agatolimod sodium, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies, such as yttrium Y 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan, can find cancer cells and carry cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Giving agatolimod sodium together with rituximab and yttrium Y 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of agatolimod sodium when given together with rituximab and yttrium Y 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan and to see how well it works in treating patients with recurrent or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
This single arm study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of MabThera maintenance therapy following a MabThera-containing induction regimen in first line or relapsed patients with follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. All patients will receive MabThera 375mg/m2 body surface area, as an intravenous infusion, every 8 weeks. The anticipated time on study treatment is 1-2 years, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.
RATIONALE: Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, vincristine, and prednisone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Giving bortezomib together with combination chemotherapy and rituximab may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well giving bortezomib together with combination chemotherapy and rituximab works when given as first-line therapy in treating patients with stage III or stage IV follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Defects in the apoptotic process can lead to the onset of cancer by allowing cells to grow unchecked when an oncogenic signal is present. Obatoclax is designed to restore apoptosis through inhibition of the Bcl-2 family of proteins, thereby reinstating the natural process of cell death that is often inhibited in cancer cells.
RATIONALE: Lithium carbonate may be an effective treatment for intestinal graft-versus-host disease caused by a donor stem cell transplant. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying lithium carbonate in treating patients with acute intestinal graft-versus-host-disease after donor stem cell transplant.
The Phase 1 portion of the study evaluated the pharmacokinetic profile and safety of ABT-263 with the objective of defining the dose limiting toxicity and maximum tolerated dose in subjects with lymphoid malignancies. The Phase 2a portion of the study is evaluating ABT-263 using a step-up dosing regimen and may be increased to the defined recommended Phase 2 dose to obtain additional safety information and a preliminary assessment of efficacy in subject with lymphoid malignancies. The Extension portion of the study is to allow Phase 2a subjects who remain active 1 year after the last subject enrolls or who have been on study approximately 1 year to continue receiving ABT-263 with less frequent study evaluations. Subjects in the Extension Study will continue receiving study drug for up to 7 years after the last subject transitions to the Extension Study, or until disease progression or toxicity that necessitates discontinuation (whichever comes first).
A Single-Arm, International, Multi-Center Trial of HuMax-CD20 (Ofatumumab), a Fully Human Monoclonal Anti-CD20 Antibody, in Patients With Follicular Lymphoma Who Are Refractory to Rituximab as Monotherapy or in Combination With Chemotherapy
Purpose of this study was to assess the safety profile and the anti-lymphoma activity of the FC+R combination.
Primary Objectives: 1. To evaluate the efficacy of Zevalin for the treatment of low-grade follicular Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the orbit or mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) of conjunctiva using radiographic imaging, clinical examination (slit lamp biomicroscopy and external examination of the conjunctiva), and external photography whenever possible. 2. To establish the safety profile in this patient population using clinical examination including slit lamp biomicroscopy, and evaluation of the tear film with Schirmer's test. 3. To establish the dosimetry for Zevalin in the orbit in the first 3 patients who agree to undergo dosimetry.
