Filter by:This Phase II, single-arm, open-label, multicenter trial is designed to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of PRO95780 when combined with rituximab in patients with follicular, CD20-positive B-cell NHL that has progressed following previous rituximab therapy.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of performing unrelated stem cell transplants using intravenous busulfan and fludarabine as preparative therapy and tacrolimus plus methotrexate as the GVHD prophylaxis regimen. The goal is to demonstrate safety, aiming for a transplant related mortality rate (TRM) of < or equal to 40% at 100 days. A TRM of > or equal to 60% will be considered unacceptable. Another goal is to demonstrate efficacy by showing and overall survival of >40% at 1-year following transplant.
The purpose of this study is to better understand why some women who survived cancer or a related illness later develop diabetes, problems with their cholesterol, or other problems that may lead to heart disease. Because these problems may be related to treatment with total body irradiation and a stem cell transplant, the investigators will compare the rates of obesity, cholesterol problems, and diabetes between women who were treated with total body irradiation and a stem cell transplant and women who were not. The amount and location of fat stores in the abdomen is more important than overall weight or total body fat in the development of diabetes and cholesterol problems. In general, fat can be stored in several areas in the abdomen: around the organs (visceral fat), under the skin (subcutaneous fat), and in the liver (liver fat). People with higher amounts of fat around the organs (visceral fat), even those with a normal weight, are more likely to become diabetic or have high cholesterol. The amount of fat in each of these areas can be measured with an abdominal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In this study, the investigators will use blood tests, height, weight, waist circumference, blood pressure measurements, and an abdominal MRI to evaluate for several risk factors of heart disease, including cholesterol problems, diabetes and pre-diabetes, elevated blood pressure, and increased abdominal fat.
Previous experience with antibody therapy in both NHL and CLL warrants further exploration of new antibody treatments for these diseases. Immunomedics has developed hLL1 (previously designated EPB-1), which is a CDR-grafted, fully humanized monoclonal antibody specifically targeting CD74.38 The human IgG1 backbone for hLL1 is the same as hLL2 (epratuzumab), a monoclonal antibody whose safety has been demonstrated in clinical trials of patients with B-cell malignancies and autoimmune disorders. This is a Phase I, open-label, study conducted in patients with recurrent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) or chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who have progressed after at least one prior standard treatment. All patients will receive hLL1 administered intravenously once daily Monday through Friday of each of 2 consecutive weeks (10 total doses.) Patients will be assigned to a cohort for hLL1 treatment dose assignment (escalating doses of hLL1 per statistical plan) in order to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for this administration schedule.
Objectives The primary objective of this study is to: • determine the complete and partial response rates and the toxicity profile of bortezomib (VELCADE, formerly PS-341) when administered in combination with DICE chemotherapy plus rituximab (i.e. VIPER) to patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma The secondary objectives of this study are to: - assess event free survival and overall survival - assess conversion of chemo-resistant to chemo-sensitive disease - assess the ability to collect stem cells from patients treated with salvage VIPER who then undergo autologous stem cell transplantation - perform correlative studies on pre-treatment tumor biopsy specimens; analyses will include the assessment of immunohistochemical expression patterns (germinal center B cell vs. activated B cell) and NF-κB activity
The study hypothesis is that the addition of zevalin radioimmunotherapy to the conditioning regimen given prior to BEAM high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation in patients with aggressive lymphoma will reduced disease recurrence rate and improve overall and disease-free survival.
The purpose of this study it to evaluate efficacy of gemcitabine with cisplatin and dexamethasone in patients with aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma who have previously progressed on first line of chemotherapy with anthracyclines.
In order to learn more about follicular lymphoma and anti-cancer vaccines, we are collecting samples from people with this diagnosis. We then hope to make a vaccine from this tissue to help the immune system destroy cancer cells. We plan on keeping samples in the tissue bank indefinitely.
This is a phase I trial to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of clofarabine in a combination with high-dose etoposide and cyclophosphamide. This is an initial step in developing a novel myeloablative preparative regimen for autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT). While this phase I trial will initially develop the regimen in patients with refractory disease, it is expected that it will find its best application in patients with less advanced disease.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of transplanting StemEx® in patients with certain hematological malignancies. For these patients, it is suggested that StemEx® can improve upon the outcome of transplanting a single, unmanipulated cord blood unit by significantly increasing the number of stem/progenitor cells available to the patient.
