Active clinical trials for "Lymphoma, Large B-Cell, Diffuse"

Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining rituximab and rasburicase with combination chemotherapy in treating young patients who have newly diagnosed advanced B-cell leukemia or lymphoma. Monoclonal antibodies such as rituximab can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug with rituximab may kill more cancer cells. Chemoprotective drugs such as rasburicase may protect kidney cells from the side effects of chemotherapy.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more tumor cells. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. It is not yet known whether stem cell transplantation is more effective with or without rituximab in treating relapsed or progressive B-cell diffuse large cell lymphoma. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of stem cell transplantation with or without rituximab in treating patients who have relapsed or progressive B-cell diffuse large cell lymphoma.

This study evaluates the addition of selinexor (KPT-330) to RICE chemotherapy in the treatment of relapsed and refractory aggressive B-Cell Lymphoma, with the goal of improved response rates (as compared to RICE chemotherapy alone).

This is a Phase 1, open-label, two-part study designed to characterize the PK of an IV dose of approximately 12 µg tazemetostat that contains approximately 500 nCi of [14C] tazemetostat and the ADME of an oral dose of 800 mg tazemetostat that contains approximately 400 µCi of [14C]-labeled tazemetostat in three subjects with B-cell lymphomas or advanced solid tumors.

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).

The purpose of this study is to improve the communication skills of physicians who transition lymphoma cancer patients from the end of treatment to survivorship.

The purpose of this small preliminary study is to gather preliminary data to support a large randomized controlled trial of a fatigue reduction diet intervention among diffuse-large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) survivors. This study will provide nutritional counseling to 10 adult patients (18 years or older) with DLBCL who have completed their upfront chemotherapy treatment and remained in remission for 2 years prior to enrollment. The study will employ individualized dietary counseling, provided by a registered dietitian (RD), by phone or video teleconferencing in 8 sessions over 3 months. Dietary intake and fatigue will be assessed at baseline and 3 months. The objective of the study is to determine feasibility of the intervention and adherence to the fatigue reduction diet. Data obtained from this preliminary study would be used to support a well-powered future randomized trial of FRD vs regular diet in survivors of DLBCL.

This phase I trial studies the best dose and how well bendamustine works with standard chemotherapy (fludarabine, rituximab) in treating participants with lymphoid cancers undergoing stem cell transplant. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fludarabine, bendamustine, and rituximab, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving chemotherapy before a stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells in the bone marrow, including normal blood-forming cells (stem cells) and cancer cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the participant, they may help the participant's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes, the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells called graft versus host disease. Giving rituximab and methotrexate after the transplant may stop this from happening.
