Hydroxychloroquine in Untreated B-CLL Patients
B-Cell Chronic Lymphocytic LeukemiaEligible CLL patients who sign an informed consent will be started on hydroxychloroquine 400mg po daily for up to one year. They will be monitored for disease status as well as adverse reactions after two weeks and then every 4 weeks. Ophthalmologic exams is required at baseline and every 6 months or sooner if the patient develops any visual disturbances.
Pilot Study of Unrelated Cord Blood Transplantation

Study of Repeat Intranodal Injection of Memgen's Cancer Vaccine, Ad-ISF35, in Subjects With Chronic...
Chronic Lymphocytic LeukemiaSmall Lymphocytic LymphomaThis is a Phase II, open label, fixed dose, repeat injection, single institution study. Eligible subjects will receive up to six doses of Ad-ISF35 injected directly into a selected lymph node under ultrasound guidance. The primary goal is to determine and monitor clinical and biological responses in patients treated with repeat intranodal injections of Ad-ISF35.
HDAC Inhibitor Valproic Acid as an Effective Therapy for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Chronic Lymphocytic LeukemiaOBJECTIVES To investigate: the mechanism of Valproic Acid (VPA)-induced apoptosis in B-CLL the ability of VPA in combination with standard chemotherapy or new antitumor agents to induce a synergistic antitumor effect in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells the clinical efficacy of VPA in previously treated CLL patients. This will be an example of a translational research study where the results of our laboratory studies will be applied to a clinical trial in the CLL clinic at CancerCare Manitoba.
Obatoclax and Bortezomib in Treating Patients With Aggressive Relapsed or Recurrent Non-Hodgkin...
Adult Non-Hodgkin LymphomaRecurrent Adult Diffuse Large Cell Lymphoma6 moreObatoclax may stop the growth of non-Hodgkin lymphoma by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Bortezomib and obatoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving obatoclax together with bortezomib may kill more cancer cells. This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of obatoclax when given together with bortezomib and to see how well they work in treating patients with aggressive relapsed or recurrent non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Chronic Lymphocytic LeukemiaThe purpose of this study was to provide the opportunity to the participants who progressed on treatment arm previously in the study UTX-TGR-304 (NCT02612311) to receive ublituximab (TG-1101) treatment in combination with umbralisib (TGR-1202).

LYMPHOCYTIC LEUKEMIA (CLL) OR SMALL LYMPHOCYTIC LYMPHOMA (SLL)Open-label pilot study to determine safety and efficacy of CART-19 cells in combination with ibrutinib. The target dose will be 1-5x10xE8 CART-19 transduced cells administered via split dosing: 10% on Day 1, 30% on Day 2, 60% on Day 3. 15 evaluable subjects (adults) with relapsed or refractory CLL/SLL who have achieved partial response or stable disease on ibrutinib therapy will be eligible to receive CART-19 therapy.
Genetically Modified T-Cell Therapy in Treating Patients With Advanced ROR1+ Malignancies
Hematopoietic and Lymphoid Cell NeoplasmMalignant Solid Neoplasm11 moreThis phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of genetically modified T-cell therapy in treating patients with receptor tyrosine kinase-like orphan receptor 1 positive (ROR1+) chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), or triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) that has spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced). Genetically modified therapies, such as ROR1 specific chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells, are taken from a patient's blood, modified in the laboratory so they specifically may kill cancer cells with a protein called ROR1 on their surfaces, and safely given back to the patient after conventional therapy. The "genetically modified" T-cells have genes added in the laboratory to make them recognize ROR1.

Identification of Biomarkers That Are Predictive of Early Ibrutinib Treatment Failure in High Risk...
Chronic Lymphocytic LeukemiaThe general aim of the project is the identification of dynamic molecular markers that can help the early and real time prediction of sustained benefit or no benefit from ibrutinib treatment in CLL harboring TP53 mutations. Specific aims of the project include: 1) Assess whether clearance of TP53 mutated clones translates into a predictive biomarker of long term benefit from ibrutinib treatment in CLL. 2) Assess whether plasma cell free DNA represents a sensitive tool that can early and dynamically inform on the development of ibrutinib resistant mutations in CLL.
