NCT ID: NCT00481871 Completed - Clinical trials for Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma

Study of Pralatrexate & Gemcitabine With B12 & Folic Acid to Treat Relapsed/Refractory Lymphoproliferative Malignancies

Start date: May 2007
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This study is for patients with lymphoproliferative malignancies that have progressed after receiving a previous treatment (relapsed) or are no longer responding to treatment (refractory). To be in this study, patients must have certain types of Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL), peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL), or B-cell lymphoma, including Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia. This study is being done to find doses of the combination of pralatrexate and gemcitabine with vitamin B12 and folic acid that can be safely given to patients with these types of lymphoma and explore the effectiveness of the treatment.

NCT ID: NCT00422799 Completed - Clinical trials for Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia

Combination Bortezomib and Rituximab in Patients With Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia (WM)

Start date: August 30, 2006
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

In this study, we are trying to find out if the combination of these two drugs is effective in treating Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia (WM). The combination of these two drugs has not been studied for patients with relapsed or refractory macroglobulinemia. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved bortezomib for the treatment of multiple myeloma, a cancer that is closely related to Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia.

NCT ID: NCT00422656 Completed - Clinical trials for Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia

Perifosine in Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia

Start date: September 2006
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia (lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma, WM) remains incurable with limited therapeutic options and notably absent FDA approved therapy with any WM indication. Therefore, there is a need to identify new therapeutic agents for WM patients both in the upfront and relapsed/refractory setting. The purpose of this research study is to assess the efficacy of perifosine in patients with relapsed or refractory WM.

NCT ID: NCT00398710 Completed - Clinical trials for Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia

A Phase II Study of Perifosine in Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia

Start date: October 2006
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This is a phase II study in relapsed/refractory WM patients treated with perifosine. It is designed to assess the proportion of overall confirmed responses (CR + PR + MR) using a two-stage phase II study design to permit early stopping of the trial if there is strong evidence that the study regimen is inactive. In addition, it will assess toxicity of this drug in patients with WM. Patients will receive perifosine 150 mg qhs daily. Patients will be assessed by serum immunoelectrophoresis and IgM level at least every 4 weeks.

NCT ID: NCT00273936 Completed - Multiple Myeloma Clinical Trials

Trial of AVN-944 in Patients With Advanced Hematologic Malignancies

Start date: January 2006
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and maximum tolerated dose, pharmacokinetics, and anti-neoplastic response of AVN-944 in patients with advanced hematologic malignancies.

NCT ID: NCT00250926 Completed - Clinical trials for Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia

Study of the Combination of Bortezomib, Dexamethasone, and Rituximab in Patients With Waldenstroms Macroglobulinemia

Start date: October 2005
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to find out if the combination of bortezomib (Velcade), dexamethasone (Decadron) and rituximab (Rituxan) is effective in treating Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia.

NCT ID: NCT00165295 Completed - Clinical trials for Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia

Sildenafil Citrate in Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia

Start date: September 2005
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects (good or bad) that sildenafil (Viagra) has on patients with slow growing Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia (WM). Sildenafil blocks the function of several proteins necessary to the survival of certain types of cancer and laboratory tests have shown that it can destroy WM cells.

NCT ID: NCT00150462 Completed - Multiple Myeloma Clinical Trials

Safety Study of the Proteasome Inhibitor PR-171 (Carfilzomib for Injection) in Patients With Hematological Malignancies

Start date: September 2005
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to test the safety and tolerability of carfilzomib at different dose levels on hematological cancers such as multiple myeloma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease, or Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia. Carfilzomib is a proteasome inhibitor, an enzyme responsible for degrading a wide variety of cellular proteins.

NCT ID: NCT00146055 Completed - Clinical trials for Myelodysplastic Syndromes

Low-Intensity Preparation and Allogeneic Transplant in Patients With Cancers of the Blood

Start date: March 2000
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a less-intensive preparative therapy followed by an allogeneic peripheral stem cell transplantation will provide an effective treatment for your disease and whether it will be associated with fewer side effects.

NCT ID: NCT00142181 Completed - Clinical trials for Lymphoplasmacytic Lymphoma

Phase II Study of Campath-1H Antibody to Treat Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia

Start date: March 2003
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effects (good or bad) of Campath-1H antibody in the treatment of lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma.
