Active clinical trials for "Lymphoma, B-Cell"

The aim of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability and dose-limiting toxicities of KW-2478 and to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose and recommended Phase II dose for patients with relapsed/refractory MM, CLL or B-cell NHL.

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of bevacizumab and cediranib maleate in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable solid tumor, lymphoma, intracranial glioblastoma, gliosarcoma or anaplastic astrocytoma. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Cediranib maleate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Bevacizumab and cediranib maleate may also stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Giving bevacizumab together with cediranib maleate may kill more cancer cells.

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of gossypol when given together with paclitaxel and carboplatin in treating patients with solid tumors that are metastatic or cannot be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gossypol, paclitaxel, and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving gossypol together with paclitaxel and carboplatin may kill more tumor cells

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the complete response (CR) rate after Intensified 1st cycle Rituximab plus 3rd cycles of R-CHOP in DLBCL

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of PXD101 and bortezomib in treating patients with advanced solid tumors or lymphomas. PXD101 and bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. PXD101 may also cause cancer cells to look more like normal cells, and to grow and spread more slowly. Giving PXD101 together with bortezomib may kill more cancer cells.

The purpose of this study is to determine if the combination of VELCADE and rituximab improves progression free survival relative to rituximab alone in patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHL) who never received rituximab or who have previously responded to rituximab. This is an international study being conducted in the United States and in many countries around the world. A complete list of study locations is listed below.

The optimal treatment of primary gastric diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PG-DLBCL) has not yet been defined. In most circumstances, a stomach-conserving approach is favored, but the role of radiotherapy is still a matter of debate. Recently, Rituximab along with full-dose CHOP chemotherapy has been shown to improve the outcome in elderly patients with nodal DLBCL. However, no data are available with such a therapy in patients with PG-DLBCL. Therefore, in March 2003, we initiated an ongoing, prospective, multicenter phase II study in patients with PG-DLBCL with 6 to 8 cycles of Rituximab (R; 375 mg/m2) plus CHOP-21 in order to evaluate the safety and efficacy of this approach.

The goal of this clinical research study is to find out if the study drug, ONTAK (denileukin diftitox), can shrink or slow the growth of B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) in patients whose disease has not responded to prior treatments, or has relapsed after an initial response to prior treatments. The safety of treatment with ONTAK will also be studied. The hypothesis is that patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell NHL and mild to moderate myelosuppression treated with ONTAK at a new dosing regimen will respond sufficiently to warrant further study.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the response rate and toxicity of the association R-CHOP with two schedules of administration of Velcade, in B-cell CD 20 + lymphoma patients, aged from 18 to 80 years The goal is to get a response rate at least at what observed with R-CHOP alone and will be evaluates with a sequential test. The other objective is to evaluate the toxicity

This phase I trial studies the side effects, best way to give, and the best dose of alvocidib when given together with fludarabine phosphate and rituximab in treating patients with previously untreated or relapsed lymphoproliferative disorders or mantle cell lymphoma. Monoclonal antibodies such as rituximab can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy such as alvocidib and fludarabine use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining monoclonal antibody therapy with chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells.
