Active clinical trials for "Hodgkin Disease"

Pilot open-label study to estimate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of intravenously administered, RNA electroporated autologous T cells expressing CD19 chimeric antigen receptors expressing tandem TCRζ and 4-1BB (TCRζ /4-1BB) costimulatory domains (referred to as "RNA CART19") in Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) patients. Subjects will be treated with IV administration of RNA anti-CD19 CAR T cells for a total of six doses over 3 weeks.

This is a study with the purpose of studying the safety and efficacy of the study drug Atezolizumab in patients with relapsed or refractory Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). Atezolizumab could shrink cancer but it could also cause side effects. This study will also test any good and bad effects the study drug. Other aims include studying biomarkers that will help researchers understand how the drug works.

Combined modality therapy has then emerged as the standard of care for limited-stage Hodgkin's lymphoma and doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD) chemotherapy that is devoid of alkylating agents and associated with a low potential for gonadal toxicity and leukemogenesis, is currently considered a gold standard. Nevertheless, the disadvantage to combine radiotherapy to ABVD is represented by late cardiovascular events (myocardial dysfunction and coronary or valvular disease), especially when the heart is within the radiation field; bleomycin pulmonary toxicity also is increased in conjunction with RT and secondary tumors, in particular in the RT fields. This study aims at treating patients with limited disease with multiagent chemotherapy alone, without irradiation, and using radiotherapy only for relapses.

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of entinostat, SNDX-275, in patients with relapsed or refractory Hodgkin's lymphoma.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of iodine I 131 monoclonal antibody BC8 when given before autologous stem cell transplant in treating patients with Hodgkin lymphoma or non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has returned after a period of improvement or does not respond to treatment. Radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies, such as iodine I 131 monoclonal antibody BC8, can find cancer cells and carry cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Giving iodine I 131 monoclonal antibody BC8 before an autologous stem cell transplant may kill more cancer cells.

The proposed study is based on our observation of paradoxical tumor regression after rejection of the donor graft in conjunction with the results of our murine experiments. We hypothesize that clinically meaningful responses can be achieved in patients with advanced malignancies with a transplant strategy using nonmyeloablative conditioning and related mismatched donor stem cell transplant where the intention will be to initially achieve mixed chimerism which will be followed by recipient lymphocyte infusion (RLI) in an attempt to deliberately reject the donor graft. This will lead to the development of novel transplant strategies for achieving antitumor effects without the risk of graft versus host disease (GVHD). This proposed protocol is a Pilot Study that will evaluate the safety of this outpatient transplant strategy, i.e., establishment of initial mixed chimerism followed by RLI for donor graft rejection, in patients with advanced lymphomas, and multiple myeloma. In addition, because RLI have been reported to reverse ongoing GVHD, this approach might potentially reverse GVHD while achieving antitumor responses if this complication unexpectedly occurs.

This clinical trial is for patients with Hodgkin Lymphoma that has not responded to standard treatment. The purpose of this study is to determine what effects, good or bad, Temsirolimus has on Hodgkin Lymphoma. The study will also determine whether Temsirolimus is tolerated in patients with Hodgkin Lymphoma who have been previously treated with chemotherapy.

Patients with 3 or more adverse prognostic factors have a higher relapse rate. Significant anti-tumor activity in Hodgkin's lymphoma has been reported with two new drugs:gemcitabine and vinorelbine. The introduction of these new agents with their different mechanisms of action into the Stanford V regimen may increase effectiveness while maintaining a favorable toxicity profile with respect to fertility and a low risk of secondary leukemia. On this basis, we propose a new regimen, Stanford VI, for patients with bulky and advanced HD with 3 or more risk factors.

This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of fenretinide and to see how well it works when given together with rituximab in treating patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fenretinide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some find cancer cells and kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Others interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving fenretinide together with rituximab may kill more cancer cells.

While thoracic radiation therapy (TRT) has been a primary component in successful treatment of Hodgkin lymphoma, exposure to this treatment has been associated with significant cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and pulmonary morbidity in long-term survivors. Survivors of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) are also at risk for fatigue and excessive daytime sleepiness. Insufficient sleep is recognized as an important public health concern, and is associated with cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity, neurocognitive problems, and reduced quality of life and productivity. Survivors of HL, who are already at risk for cardiac and neurologic morbidity due to their treatment exposures, could face catastrophic cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events with the added risk associated with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The investigators propose to examine indices of sleep quality using polysomnography, and associated neurocognitive performance, brain MRI, and structure and strength of neck muscles in 220 long-term adult survivors of Hodgkin lymphoma treated with thoracic radiation. OBJECTIVES: To estimate the prevalence of OSA in adult survivors of HL treated with thoracic radiation, and compare the frequency to community controls matched on age, gender, race and body mass index. To identify specific therapeutic factors associated with OSA in adult survivors of HL treated with thoracic radiation. To identify biomarkers of OSA in adult survivors of HL treated with thoracic radiation. To examine associations between OSA and cardiac morbidity and brain integrity in the adult survivors of HL treated with thoracic radiation.
