Filter by:The purpose of this study is to investigate the antitumor effect and safety of the product for relapsed or refractory indolent B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphomas.
This study will determine the overall response rate and toxicity of rituximab and Velcade in combination in patients with relapsed or refractory mantle cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
This study will determine the efficacy of clofarabine as measured by response rate in patients with aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma
* AIMS OF THE STUDY (STUDY OBJECTIVES) 1. To test the effect of daily lamivudine (100 mg) in reducing the risk of HBV reactivation and hepatitis development in HBsAg (+) NHL patients. 2. To test the efficacy of daily lamivudine in preventing and treating hepatitis B reactivation and in circumventing hepatic failure and death. 3. To test whether lamivudine can improve the overall outcome of NHL patients who are HBV carriers. (Study end-points: The major end-point: hepatitis B reactivation in NHL patients---defined by higher than 10-fold increase of serum HBV DNA level and/or reappearance of HBeAg in the serum during and within 6 months after chemotherapy. The minor end-point I : events of hepatic failure and death---defined by jaundice with hepatic encephalopathy. The minor end-point II: the response rate and survival rate in HBsAg-positive NHL patients receiving lamivudine prophylaxis and treatment.)
The study hypothesis is that intensification of CHOP by dose escalation of the most active drugs in the combination will improve treatment outcome. Patients with diffuse large-cell lymphoma are treated by high cyclophosphamide containing CHOP. The planned dose is 3000 mg/m2 which is 4 times the atandard one. Only 4 cycles are given.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of an experimental drug called Elsamitrucin in people with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and to see if it can shrink their tumors. Elsamitrucin has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). However, the FDA is permitting the use of this drug for this study.
The current standard treatment for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma involves drugs called cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone and rituxan in a regimen called "R-CHOP." Using R-CHOP therapy, complete disappearance of disease is expected in over 50% of people. One of the active drugs in the R-CHOP regimen, doxorubicin, has previously been reformulated and been placed in a fatty bubble called a liposome. The reason for placing the drug in the liposome is that there is evidence that the liposome is better taken up by tumors. This liposomally encapsulated form of doxorubicin called Doxil has shown similar or better anti-tumor against certain tumors with reduced side effects. Doxil is FDA approved for ovarian cancer. However its use in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is still investigational. By substituting Doxil for doxorubicin in the R-CHOP regimen, it is hoped this treatment will be better at shrinking tumors and with reduced side effects. The purpose of this study is to see how well the combination of Doxil, rituximab, cyclophosphamide, vincristine and prednisone (DR-COP) are in shrinking tumors in patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
This is a Phase II trial evaluating the efficacy (overall response rate) of a risk-adjusted outpatient based approach to lymphoma salvage therapy with vinorelbine, gemcitabine and pegfilgrastim and/or gemcitabine, ifosfamide, vinorelbine and pegfilgrastim.
This is an open label pilot study of 40 evaluable patients receiving vinorelbine-gemcitabine combination chemotherapy with filgrastim support in an outpatient setting. Participating patients at the time of registration will have measurable relapsed or primary refractory lymphoma.
The purpose of this study is to assess the protective effect of Valsartan on chronic cardiotoxicity induced by CHOP.
