Filter by:The purpose of this phase 1-2 study is to explore the applicability of supplementing standard methotrexate/6-mercaptopurine (MTX/6MP) maintenance therapy of children with non-Hodgkin lymphoma with 6-thioguanine (6TG). The investigators hypothesize that addition of 6TG to 6MP-based maintenance therapy of patients with high TPMT activity will mimic the more favourable thiopurine metabolism of patients with low TPMT activity and ultimately reduce relapse rates.
This is a non-blinded, not placebo controlled, randomized, parallel phase 2 pilot study to evaluate the immunological response and the safety of Epstein Barr Virus (EBV)-derived tumor antigen, Latent Membrane Protein-2 (LMP2)-loaded dendritic cell (DC) vaccines alone or co-administered with the TLR9 ligand, DUK-CPG-001, in patients with EBV+ lymphoma in the setting of autologous stem cell transplant with infusion of mature T cells. Patients will be randomized to receive vaccine alone or vaccine co-administered with the TLR9 ligand, DUK-CPG-001. Randomization will be stratified by 2 disease types: Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
Background: - Cord blood banks have been set up to collect and store umbilical cord blood for transplants. These transplants are used to treat different types of cancer. In October 2011, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) began considering cord blood as a biological drug. Most of the cord blood units currently available in cord blood banks in the United States and other countries were collected before the FDA set these new standards. The units meet standards set by the National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP), but they were not collected, tested, or stored exactly according to FDA standards. As a result, the new guidelines state that they may only be used for transplant if the transplant is done as part of a study. Researchers have set up a study to provide these cord blood units to recipients and to study the effects of their use. Objectives: - To provide access to cord blood units for recipients whose best choice for a unit meets NMDP but not FDA standards. - To study the effects of these cord blood transplants. Eligibility: - Individuals who need to have a cord blood transplant to treat certain types of cancer. Design: - Participants will be screened with a physical exam, medical history. They will also have blood tests and imaging studies. - Participants will have the cord blood transplant and allow their medical data to be collected by the study researchers.
The purpose of this study is to determine the rate of response to the drugs bortezomib (Velcade) and vorinostat (Zolinza), when used in combination, in patients with relapsed (recurrent) and/or refractory (difficult to treat) non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, and to determine the safety and tolerability of this regimen.
