Active clinical trials for "Lymphoma, T-Cell, Cutaneous"

This randomized phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of carfilzomib when given together with or without romidepsin in treating patients with stage IA-IVB cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. Carfilzomib and romidepsin may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether giving carfilzomib alone is more effective than when given together with romidepsin.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate how safe and effective the combination of two different drugs (brentuximab vedotin and rituximab) is in patients with certain types of lymphoma. This study is for patients who have a type of lymphoma that expresses a tumor marker called CD30 and/or a type that is associated with the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV-related lymphoma) and who have not yet received any treatment for their cancer, except for dose-reduction or discontinuation (stoppage) of medications used to prevent rejection of transplanted organs (for those patients who have undergone transplantation). This study is investigating the combination of brentuximab vedotin and rituximab as a first treatment for lymphoma patients

CTCL is a rare form of lymphoma of the skin. While early stages are usually confined to the skin, later stages may spread to blood, lymph nodes and other organs. At this point, patients usually require systemic chemo. This study will investigate the effect of everolimus as treatment for recurrent or refractory CTCL. Participation in this study will last as long as the study doctor believes disease has not gotten worse, and patients continue to tolerate the study medication for a maximum of 1 year. Once off the treatment, patients will be followed for two years.

This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of LBH589B in adult participants with refractory/resistant Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma and prior Histone Deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor therapy.

This study is a retrospective one, exploring the hypothesis that a person's genotypic makeup may be associated with a clinical response or toxic effect to a drug. Genetic polymorphisms, that is, states of being able to assume different forms, that are in drug-metabolizing enzymes, transporters, and receptors may affect a patient's response to drug therapy. To date, there have been limited studies looking at a drug-metabolizing genotype (genetic makeup) or phenotype (result of the genotype's interaction with the environment). However, it is often wondered if the variations in a drug's action, that is, pharmacokinetic effect, come from the genotype phenotype relationship. Participants who entered previous clinical trials at the National Cancer Institute, as approved by the Central Institutional Review Board, may be eligible for this study. Studies for which pharmacokinetic analyses were or are being performed will be the source of the patient population. Genotyping experiments will be performed through genomic DNA isolated from stored frozen serum. The genotyping results will be compared with pharmacokinetic data and clinical outcomes. Clinical data will consist of what is obtained during the course of the principal pharmacokinetic study. The results of the retrospective analyses will provide no direct benefit to the participants.

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of giving tanespimycin together with bortezomib in treating patients with advanced solid tumors or lymphomas. (Accrual for lymphoma patients closed as of 11/27/09) Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as tanespimycin, work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. It may also increase the effectiveness of tanespimycin by making cancer cells more sensitive to the drug. Combining tanespimycin with bortezomib may kill more cancer cells.

Peripheral T cell lymphoma and advanced cutaneous T cell lymphomas are aggressive and refractory diseases that are generally treated with chemotherapy. Despite current treatment modalities, only a subset of patients will be cured by the treatment. In this study, four chemotherapeutic agents (L-asparaginase, Methotrexate, Doxil, and Prednisone) will be administered in a combination regimen for patients with relapsed or refractory Peripheral and/or advanced cutaneous T cell lymphoma. Each one of these individual drugs have been shown to have activity to lymphomas. The objective of the study is to determine if the combination of these chemotherapy agents results in higher response and cure rates in this patient population. This will be a single institutional study which will included 32 patients in the Peripheral T cell lymphoma group and 32 patients in the Cutaneous T cell lymphoma group.

The main objective of the trial is to investigate whether oral treatment of patients suffering from cutaneous T cell lymphoma with dimethylfumarate is leading to a significant improvement of modified severity assessment tool (mSWAT) values in the skin after 24 weeks of treatment (primary endpoint). Secondary endpoints are dermatologic life quality index, itching and pain measured by a NRS and the blood involvement if applicable. Primary: safety and efficacy of DMF treatment in CTCL Secondary: Dermatologic Life Quality index, NRS for itching and pain, blood involvement if appl.

Objectives of this clinical trial are to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and potential efficacy of the investigational drug, cobomarsen (MRG-106), in patients diagnosed with certain lymphomas and leukemias, including cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) [mycosis fungoides (MF) subtype], chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) [activated B-cell (ABC) subtype], and adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL). Cobomarsen is an inhibitor of a molecule called miR-155 that is found at high levels in these types of cancers and may be important in promoting the growth and survival of the cancer cells. Participants in the clinical trial will receive weekly doses of cobomarsen administered by injection under the skin or into a vein, or by injection directly into cancerous lesions in the skin (for CTCL only). Blood samples will be collected to measure how cobomarsen is processed by the body, and other measurements will be performed to study how normal and cancerous cells of the immune system respond when exposed to cobomarsen.

This study is investigating the combination of Brentuximab vedotin and lenalidomide in the treatment of relapsed/refractory peripheral T cell lymphoma or cutaneous T cell lymphoma or Hodgkin lymphoma. It is hypothesised that lenalidomide may augment the actions of Brentuximab vedotin in these patient groups. The primary objective of the study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose of the combination treatment, which can be used in subsequent studies. The study will also investigate disease response and survival. Participants will receive Brentuximab vedotin (once every 21 days i.e. 1 cycle) and lenalidomide (daily from day 1 -14 of each cycle) for a maximum of 48 weeks and will be followed for a subsequent 6 months after the end of treatment.
