Filter by:Multi-center, open-label, single-dose, dose-escalating Phase I/II study of GS 9219 in adult patients with relapsed or refractory CLL, NHL or MM. Patients will be enrolled into the study in sequential dose cohorts. Patients will be administered a single IV infusion of GS 9219 on Day 1 of a 21 day cycle and may receive a total of six treatment cycles based on toxicities and response. Patients who demonstrate disease progression will be discontinued from the study. Patients who, at the completion of six treatment cycles, tolerate treatment and show evidence of disease control (response or stabilization) will be eligible to continue receiving treatment at the same dose.
RATIONALE: Interferon alfa may interfere with the growth of cancer cells. Interleukin-6 may stimulate the white blood cells to kill cancer cells. Giving interferon alfa together with interleukin-6 may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying the side effects and how well giving interferon alfa together with interleukin-6 works in treating patients with recurrent multiple myeloma.
RATIONALE: Vaccines made from the patient's cancer cells may help the body build an effective immune response to kill cancer cells. Giving vaccine therapy together with donor lymphocyte infusion after a stem cell transplant from the patient's brother or sister may kill any cancer cells that remain after transplant. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying the side effects, best dose, and how well vaccine therapy with or without donor lymphocyte infusion works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or multiple myeloma undergoing donor stem cell transplant.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the combination of bevacizumab and bortezomib have increased efficacy in the treatment of relapsed/ refractory multiple myeloma.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of LBH589B in adult patients with multiple myeloma who have received at least two prior therapies and are refractory to their last therapy. Patients must have received in prior therapy either bortezomib or lenalidomide
The purpose of this research study is to test the safety and effectiveness of replacing vincristine with a drug called bortezomib (also known as "Velcade"or PS341) in the standard therapy vincristine, doxorubicin (not limited to, but formerly referred to under the tradename Adriamycin) and dexamethasone (VAD) in patients with multiple myeloma. Multiple Myeloma is the second most common cancer of the blood. Bortezomib is the first approved cancer treatment in a new class of medicines called proteasome inhibitors. It disrupts the cell cycle of the cell, affecting numerous biologic pathways, including those related to growth and survival of cancer cells. The treatment will be used as second line treatment, which means either the disease has returned after a period of improvement (relapse) or the disease did not respond to the initial treatment (refractory). Patients will receive either bortezomib (PS341), doxorubicin (Adriamycin) and dexamethasone (PAD) or the VAD standard therapy.
This phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well aflibercept works in treating patients with stage II or stage III multiple myeloma that has relapsed or not responded to previous treatment. Aflibercept may be able to carry cancer-killing substances directly to multiple myeloma cells. It may also stop the growth of multiple myeloma by blocking blood flow to the cancer.
This open-label study will assess anti-tumor activity and safety of belinostat in combination with bortezomib (Velcade®) in multiple myeloma patients refractory to or relapsed from at least one prior bortezomib-containing regimen. Subjects will be administered both PXD101 and bortezomib on the same days: i.e. days 1, 4, 8, and 11 of a 3-week cycle, for up to 8 cycles.
This is a Phase II trial evaluating the overall response rate, safety and tolerability to azacitidine in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.
This study will examine whether 240 µg/kg plerixafor given alone for up to 4 days is safe and well tolerated in multiple myeloma (MM) patients. In addition, this study determines if plerixafor alone can be used to mobilize peripheral blood progenitor cells (PBPCs) for transplantation in MM patients. The minimum number of CD34+ cells to collect is 2*10^6 CD34+ cells/kg and the target is ≧4*10^6 CD34+ cells/kg. Success of transplant engraftment will be measured by the number of days to polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) and platelet (PLT) engraftment. Durability of transplant will be assessed for a minimum of one year.
