Active clinical trials for "Precursor Cell Lymphoblastic Leukemia-Lymphoma"

Drugs used in chemotherapy such as CCI-779 work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. This phase II trial is studying how well CCI-779 works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or chronic myelogenous leukemia in blastic phase

Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of PS-341 in treating patients who have refractory or relapsed acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, chronic myeloid leukemia in blast phase, or myelodysplastic syndrome. PS-341 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for cancer cell growth

Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of augmerosen plus fludarabine and cytarabine in treating patients who have refractory or relapsed acute myeloid leukemia or acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Gene therapy such as augmerosen may make cancer cells more sensitive to chemotherapy drugs. Combining more than one drug with augmerosen may kill more cancer cells.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving more than one drug may kill more cancer cells. It is not yet known which combination chemotherapy regimen is more effective in treating childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is comparing different combination chemotherapy regimens to see how well they work in treating children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of 506U78 in treating patients who have recurrent or refractory acute lymphocytic leukemia.

This clinical trial studies fludarabine phosphate, low-dose total-body irradiation, and donor stem cell transplant followed by cyclosporine, mycophenolate mofetil, and donor lymphocyte infusion in treating patients with hematopoietic cancer. Giving low doses of chemotherapy, such as fludarabine phosphate, and total body irradiation (TBI) before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also keep the patient's immune response 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). Giving an infusion of the donor's T cells (donor lymphocyte infusion) after the transplant may help increase this 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 after the transplant may stop this from happening.

Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of oxaliplatin in treating patients who have relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells. Bone marrow transplantation can replace immune cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to study the effectiveness of chemotherapy compared with or without bone marrow transplantation in treating patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

The radio-labeled anti-CD66 monoclonal antibody (with 111In for dosimetry and 90Y for therapy) will be administered in the T11 North room, UCLH, while the reduced intensity conditioning regimen and the allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant will be performed in 2 centers, according to the age of the patient: A) patients aged < 13 years will be transplanted at the Bone Marrow Transplantation Department, Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH), and B) patients aged 13-18 years will be transplanted at the Bone Marrow Transplantation Department, University College London Hospitals (UCLH).

A retrospective analysis to investigate pediatric B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients who were treated with blinatumomab for consolidation, and who were detected as minimal residual disease (MRD) positive by next generation sequencing (NGS). The efficacy of blinatumomab clearing MRD detected by NGS will be analyzed, in order to see the potential of using NGS to guide MRD eradication by blinatumomab.
