View clinical trials related to Lymphoma, Mantle-cell.
Filter by:The purpose of the study is to determine if outcome for patients with mantle cell lymphoma is improved by adding radioimmunotherapy to high-dose regimen before auto-transplant in patients who are not in CR after induction therapy.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or stopping them from dividing. Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving combination chemotherapy together with bortezomib may kill more cancer cells. It is not yet known whether combination chemotherapy is more effective with or without bortezomib in treating mantle cell lymphoma. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying combination chemotherapy and bortezomib to see how well they work compared with combination chemotherapy alone in treating patients with relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma. Combination chemotherapy alone (Arm I) has been discontinued April 2012 on recommendation of the DMC.
Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) is a malignancy with a poor response to treatment and with a median survival of 2- 4 years since diagnosis. Although histology is similar to that of an indolent lymphoma, MCL is currently considered an aggressive tumour. Few prospective therapeutic trials have been reported in MCL, and results are difficult to interpret due to treatment heterogeneity. It is known that standard chemotherapy for other clinically aggressive lymphomas yields poor results. Recently, better results have been communicated with intense induction chemotherapy treatments or consolidating the response with high dose chemotherapy with stem cell support. Keeping in mind these considerations, we will use and intensive induction treatment with Hyper-CVAD/MTX-AraC associated with anti-CD20 in order to increase the overall response rate followed by consolidation treatment with Ibritumomab -tiuxetan (Zevalin) with the aim of eradicate the minimal residual disease, responsible of relapse.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vorinostat in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable solid tumors or lymphoma and liver dysfunction. (closed for accrual as of 04/05/2010) Vorinostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Vorinostat may have different effects in patients who have changes in their liver function.
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a sub-type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) which is generally considered incurable with current therapy. Participants will receive an autologous vaccine against their individual lymphoma after undergoing stem cell transplantation. This vaccination may prolong the time which patients will stay in remission from their disease.
RATIONALE: Beclomethasone dipropionate may be effective in preventing acute graft-versus-host disease in patients undergoing a stem cell transplant for hematologic cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well beclomethasone dipropionate works in preventing acute graft-versus-host disease in patients undergoing a donor stem cell transplant for hematologic cancer.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of bortezomib when given with rituximab and chemotherapy drugs and to see how well they work in treating participants with mantle cell lymphoma. Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, dexamethasone, methotrexate, and cytarabine, 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. Giving bortezomib, rituximab and combination chemotherapy may work better at treating mantle cell lymphoma.
This single arm study will evaluate the benefit of adding MabThera to standard induction chemotherapy in patients with newly diagnosed mantle cell lymphoma. The safety and tolerability of a MabThera-containing first line regimen will also be assessed. All patients will receive MabThera (375mg/m2 iv) every 3 weeks for 8 cycles, in combination with standard chemotherapy. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of bevacizumab and cediranib maleate in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable solid tumor, lymphoma, intracranial glioblastoma, gliosarcoma or anaplastic astrocytoma. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, 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. Cediranib maleate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Bevacizumab and cediranib maleate may also stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Giving bevacizumab together with cediranib maleate may kill more cancer cells.
RATIONALE: To evaluate the efficacy of a new high intensity chemotherapy regimen with thalidomide maintenance in patients with newly diagnosed mantle cell lymphoma PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving rituximab together with combination chemotherapy followed by thalidomide works in treating patients with previously untreated mantle cell lymphoma.
