Active clinical trials for "Hodgkin Disease"

A phase II study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and hematopoietic stem cell mobilization of TG-0054 in patients with multiple myeloma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma or Hodgkin disease.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Resminostat (4SC-201) is effective and safe in the treatment of relapsed or refractory Hodgkin's Lymphoma.

To establish the safety and tolerability profile of MDX-1401 in patients with relapsed or refractory Hodgkin's Lymphoma (HL).

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of a combination of two anticancer medicines, called vorinostat and etoposide, with a high dose of a vitamin called niacinamide. These medications will be tested at different dose levels. The investigators want to find out what effects, good and/or bad, it has on patients and their recurrent lymphoma. The first two drugs, vorinostat and niacinamide, suppress survival signals that lymphoma cells depend on. The third drug, etoposide can kill sensitive lymphoma cells alone or in combination with other chemotherapy drugs. Vorinostat is an anticancer agent that been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. It is being evaluated in this study in combination with other anticancer medicines for use in other types of lymphoma. Vorinostat's use in combination with anticancer regimens is experimental. Niacinamide is a vitamin that is investigational or experimental when given at high doses as an anticancer agent. Niacinamide has not yet been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in lymphoma. Etoposide has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. However, the way it will be given in this clinical study is experimental.

The purpose of this study is to determine if we can prevent Epstein Barr Virus lymphomas by the monthly administration of an (antibody) protein against B lymphocytes called Rituximab. Although this medicine has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat patients with other types of lymphomas, and has been used to treat a small number of patients with EBV lymphomas and other types of B-cell leukemias, it has not been approved to try and prevent EBV-lymphomas. Use of Rituximab to try to prevent EBV-lymphomas is therefore experimental.

To determine the highest dose of study drug that can be taken without causing serious side effects in patients with advanced cancer. The study will look at safety of the study drug and whether the treatment schedule is tolerated by patients.

This pilot trial studies different high-dose chemotherapy regimens with or without total-body irradiation (TBI) to compare how well they work when given before autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) in treating patients with hematologic cancer or solid tumors. Giving high-dose chemotherapy with or without TBI before ASCT stops the growth of cancer cells by stopping them from dividing or killing them. After treatment, stem cells are collected from the patient's blood or bone marrow and stored. More chemotherapy may be given to prepare for the stem cell transplant. The stem cells are then returned to the patient to replace the blood forming cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy.

This is a continuation of a pilot study which is now regarded as a phase II trial with a plan to enroll an additional 40 patients (20 related and 20 unrelated donor transplants) with hematological malignancy assessing the safety and efficacy of a minimally myelosuppressive regimen with pentostatin and low-dose total body irradiation (TBI) followed by allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (alloPSCT).

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of transplanting StemEx® in patients with certain hematological malignancies. For these patients, it is suggested that StemEx® can improve upon the outcome of transplanting a single, unmanipulated cord blood unit by significantly increasing the number of stem/progenitor cells available to the patient.

Phase I study to define the safety profile and pharmacokinetic parameters of SGN-35 in patients with relapsed/refractory CD30-positive hematologic malignancies. This is a single-arm, open-label, Phase I dose escalation study designed to define the MTD, PK, immunogenicity and anti-tumor activity of SGN-35 in patients with relapsed/refractory CD30-positive hematologic malignancies.
