Filter by:The purpose of this research is to evaluate a new combination of chemotherapy drugs for CLL/SLL using the drugs bendamustine (an intravenous chemotherapy drug), rituximab (an intravenous medication called a monoclonal antibody), and lenalidomide (an anti-cancer pill). The purpose of this study is to see if giving the chemotherapy pill lenalidomide after treatment with bendamustine and rituximab is able to prolong the period of time before the cancer starts growing again and causing symptoms.
This is a Phase II, open label, fixed dose, repeat injection, single institution study. Eligible subjects will receive up to six doses of Ad-ISF35 injected directly into a selected lymph node under ultrasound guidance. The primary goal is to determine and monitor clinical and biological responses in patients treated with repeat intranodal injections of Ad-ISF35.
Background: The development of new technologies now allow scientists to investigate the molecular basis and clinical manifestations of monoclonal B cell lymphocytosis (MBL), chronic lymphocytic leukemia(CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL)/Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (WM), and splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL). Applying these methods in a natural history study can clarify processes involved in disease progression and possibly lead to the discovery or validation of treatment targets. - Objectives: - Study the history of MBL/CLL/SLL/LPL/WM/SMZL in patients prior to and after treatment. - Characterize clinical, biologic and molecular events of disease stability and progression of patients enrolled on this protocol. - Eligibility: - Diagnosis of MBL/CLL/SLL/LPL/WM/SMZL - Age greater than or equal to 18 years. - Patients with CLL/SLL in remission after chemotherapy are excluded. - ECOG performance status of 0-2. - Design: - Patients are typically followed every 6 to 24 months in the clinic and have blood drawn. When required patients may undergo additional testing that may include bone marrow biopsy and aspiration, blood drawing, lymph node biopsy, x-ray studies, positron emission tomography and CT and MRI scans. Some of these tests may be required to monitor CLL/SLL, LPL/WM, and SMZL patients. Other tests, such as bone marrow biopsy and aspiration, lymph node biopsy, may not be clinically indicated, but patients may be asked to undergo these procedures for research purposes. - No treatment will be administered on this study. If a patients requires treatment for their cancer, available NIH clinical trials and alternative treatment options will be discussed with the patient.
Perifosine inhibits the AKT pathway (a way cells communicate with each other). This pathway is felt to be important in the development of several types of cancers including chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). It is thought perifosine may be able to block this pathway and lead to an improvement in the CLL or SLL. The purpose of this trial is to see if perifosine is an effective treatment for relapsed or refractory CLL or SLL. Another purpose of this study is to look at the effect perifosine has on cells.
Primary Objectives - To determine the safety and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of Adenovirus-CD154 (Ad-ISF35) when it is injected directly into the lymph nodes of patients with CLL or SLL. Secondary Objectives - To determine and monitor clinical and biological responses in patients treated with injections of Ad-ISF35. - To determine how ISF35 works in CLL/SLL patients' cells.
This is a Phase II, open label, fixed dose, repeat injection, single institution study. Eligible subjects will receive up to six doses of Ad-ISF35 injected directly into a selected lymph node under ultrasound guidance. The primary goal is to determine and monitor clinical and biological responses in patients treated with repeat intranodal injections of Ad-ISF35.
Evaluation of event free survival (EFS) of patients treated with the study chemotherapy induction program: R-CHOP compared to the standard R-CVP regimen and response rates, time to best response, PFS, OS, neutropenic fever rate, infection rate, change in Ig levels, change in lymphocyte subpopulations counts in previously untreated indolent lymphoma patients in need of systemic treatment.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if the combination of lenalidomide and rituximab can help to control Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (SLL) in patients who have already received therapy. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.
This phase II trial studies how well giving an umbilical cord blood transplant together with cyclophosphamide, fludarabine, and total-body irradiation (TBI) works in treating patients with hematologic disease. Giving chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide and fludarabine, and TBI before a donor umbilical cord blood transplant 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 a 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 cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil after transplant may stop this from happening.
Oral clofarabine is related to two intravenous chemotherapy drugs used for this disease and works in two different ways. It affects the development of new cancer cells by blocking two enzymes that cancer cells need to reproduce. When these enzymes are blocked, the cancer call can no longer prepare the DNA needed to make new cells. Clofarabine also encourages existing cancer cells to die by disturbing components within the cancer cell. This causes the release of a substance that is fatal to the cell. This trial studies the efficacy of oral clofarabine in the treatment of relapsed non-Hodgkin lymphomas.
