Filter by:Bexarotene is a RXR-selective retinoid, licensed for the treatment of cutaneous T cell lymphoma. The most frequent adverse effect is hypertriglyceridemia but its mechanism is not well known. The purpose of this study is to research a carbohydrate metabolism disorder associated in bexarotene-induced hypertriglyceridemia.
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
The goal of this study is to identify genetic changes associated with the initiation, progression, and treatment response of response of cutaneous and hematologic disorders using recently developed high-throughput sequencing technologies. The improved understanding of the genetic changes associated with cutaneous and hematologic disorders may lead to improved diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic options for these disorders.
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
The purpose of this study is to determine the overall cutaneous response rate (participants who achieve a complete response or partial response) based on the modified severity weighted assessment tool criteria.
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.
Extracorporeal Photopheresis (ECP) is a form of apheresis and photodynamic therapy in which the peripheral blood is treated with 8-methoxypsoralen, which is then activated with UV light. ECP is currently a standard therapy for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) and is also effective for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). The investigators would like to study the outcomes (response rates) of patients receiving ECP treatment and other factors relating to their disease and treatment, as well as procedural events, such as complications.
Background: - Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) is a rare, slow-growing form of skin cancer. The cancer cells are found in red, scaly patches that may sometimes itch. - Early-stage CTCL is usually treated with topical therapies, which may lose effectiveness over time and have adverse effects, such as risk of secondary skin cancers and difficulty of use. - Romidepsin is an experimental drug that, given through a vein, has improved CTCL in some patients with later stages of the disease. - A topical ointment form of romidepsin may be helpful in treating early-stage CTCL. Objectives: - To determine the highest tolerated dose of topical romidepsin that can be given to patients with early-stage CTCL. - To evaluate the effectiveness of topical romidepsin in patients with early-stage CTCL. - To determine how the body handles topical romidepsin. Eligibility: -Patients 18 of age and older with early-stage CTCL. Design: - Study Part 1: Successive groups of 3 patients are treated with increasingly higher concentrations of topical romidepsin until the highest tolerated dose is found. - Study Part II: The highest tolerated dose, as determined in Part I, is applied to larger areas of skin in another group of patients. - All study participants apply the study medicine to their skin three times a day for 4 weeks. - During treatment, participants are monitored at weeks 2 and 4 with a history and physical examination, blood tests, electrocardiogram, skin biopsies and photographs of the skin. - After stopping treatment, participants return to the clinic at weeks 6 and 8 for blood tests and to see how the study medication is affecting the body.
