Active clinical trials for "Lymphoma, B-Cell"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate a multi-dose regimen of SGN-30, a novel chimeric monoclonal antibody (mAb), in patients with refractory or recurrent CD30+ hematologic malignancies. This is a single-arm, open-label phase I/II study designed to define the toxicity profile, pharmacokinetic (PK) profile, and anti-tumor activity of a multi-dose regimen of SGN-30 in patients with refractory or recurrent CD30+ hematologic malignancies. The phase I study will be a modified dose escalation of SGN-30. Based on preclinical pharmacology and toxicokinetics (TK) and the first use in human single-dose phase I study, SGN-30 will be administered on a weekly schedule. An initial dose of 2 mg/kg will escalate until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) has been reached or until a weekly dose of 12 mg/kg is achieved.

In Europe diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a rare disease whereas in Italy it is not. Approximately 40% of DLBCL patients has refractory disease or will relapse after initial response. In onco-hematology, a role for gut microbiota (GM) in mediating immune activation in response to chemotherapy, has been suggested. In this scenario, the Investigators hypothesized that GM could play an important role in DLBCL prognosis and response to treatment, establishing a connection between lifestyle and clinical response. The project is aimed to the study of the functional GM layout in association with specific patterns of treatment response in de novo DLBCL undergoing standard first line chemo-immunotherapy. Results may build the scientific basis to design new and personalized intervention strategies (both in treatment approach and in life-style recommendations), to enhance clinical response and reduction of disease refractoriness through modulation of the gut microbial ecosystem.

This is a Phase 1, multi-center, open-label study of TRPH-222 monotherapy in subjects with relapsed and/or refractory B-cell NHL. The study will be conducted in two Stages: Dose-Escalation, Dose-Expansion.

The study has the purpose to compare R-CHOP versus R-mini-CEOP in elderly patients (>65 years) with Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL).

This is an international trial conducted by three cooperative groups: SFOP (France, Belgium, Netherlands), CCG (USA, Canada, Australia), and UKCCSG (UK and Ireland). Children with mature B-cell lymphoma/leukaemia are stratified into three different risk groups (A, B, C) and receive treatment of progressive intensity. Randomized trials in the 2 biggest groups (B and C) test whether "reduced" therapy is equivalent to standard intensive therapy (LMB-89 B and C) in terms of event free survival. The reason for the modification is to reduce the long term toxicity which includes cardiotoxicity, impaired fertility and secondary malignancy. In group B, the modifications of treatment consists of a reduction of cyclophosphamide in COPADM2 and/or the elimination of COPADM3. In group C, the modification consists in a reduction of the doses in the CYVE courses and the elimination of the last 3 courses of maintenance treatment

Aim of the study is to establish in a prospective, randomized clinical trial the activity of primary chemotherapy containing high dose-methotrexate, alone or combined with high dose cytarabine, in patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma

The primary objective assess the clinical activity of combination doxorubicin-containing chemotherapy plus monoclonal antibody anti-CD20 (Rituximab) plus intrathecal prophylactic chemotherapy and loco-regional radiotherapy in primary localised testicular DLCL and to assess the toxicity of this therapeutic strategy

Patients with CD22(+) B-cell lymphomas will be treated with escalating doses as a 192 hr infusion of immunotoxin in a Phase I study to determine dose limiting toxicity evidence of response.

Prospective collection of data of possible prognostic relevance in patients with indolent non - follicular B-CELL Lymphomas.

In order to improve the clinical result of high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation for B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, Zevalin will be added to the conditioning regimen. Investigators expect this radioimmunotherapy of Zevalin plus busulfan, cyclophosphamide and etoposide regimen will improve survival of relapsed or poor-risk B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
