Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Lymphocytic, Chronic, B-Cell"

This trial includes patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, the most common kind of malignant lymphoma. Monoclonal antibodies directed against cluster of differentiation antigen 20 have improved treatment results in different forms of lymphomas; however in chronic lymphocytic leukemia treatment with monoclonal antibodies is less effective, and it has been suggested that this is depending on a lower expression of the cluster of differentiation antigen 20 protein on the chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells. Valproate, an anticonvulsant drug, has been shown to increase the cluster of differentiation antigen 20 expression, and the rationale in this study is that an increasement of cluster of differentiation antigen 20 would make treatment with monoclonal antibodies in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia more effective.

This clinical trial studies intra-osseous donor umbilical cord blood and mesenchymal stromal cell co-transplant in treating patients with hematologic malignancies. Giving low doses of chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a co-transplant of donor umbilical cord blood and mesenchymal stromal cells into the bone (intra-osseous) helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil at the time of transplant may stop this from happening.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide when given together with ibrutinib in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma that has returned after a period of improvement (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Ibrutinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving lenalidomide together with ibrutinib may work better in treating chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma.

This is a multicenter, open-label, single-arm, expanded access treatment study designed to provide obinutuzumab to patients with previously untreated Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) in combination with chlorambucil and to evaluate the safety and efficacy of obinutuzumab administered in combination with chlorambucil. This study will enroll patients with previously untreated CD20-positive CLL requiring treatment according to the IWCLL guidelines (Hallek et al 2008), as assessed by the investigator.

The purpose of the study is to determine whether patients with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) will benefit from vaccination with a 13-valent conjugated pneumococcal vaccine, Prevenar13, compared with a conventional 23-valent capsular polysaccharide vaccine in terms of immune response.

The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of T cells that can be given in combination with standard chemotherapy to patients with CLL. The safety of this combination will also be studied. The T cells being used in this study are a type of white blood cell that will be taken from your blood and then genetically changed in a laboratory. The process of changing the DNA (the genetic material of cells) of the T cells is called a gene transfer. After the gene transfer is complete, the genetically changed T-cells will be put back into your body. These T cells may help prevent cancer cells from coming back.

This multi-center, open-label, single-arm study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics and safety of obinutuzumab in participants with cluster of differentiation (CD) 20 positive (+) malignant disease. Participants will receive multiple doses of obinutuzumab. The anticipated time on study treatment is 24 weeks.

The purpose of this study is to find out what effects a new drug AT7519M has on chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

This is a multi-center, open-label, dose escalation study.

RATIONALE: Carfilzomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and the best dose of carfilzomib in treating patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia(CLL),small lymphocytic lymphoma(SLL), or prolymphocytic leukemia (PLL).
