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

A phase II trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combination bendamustine and rituximab in patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. It is hypothesized that the BR combination will produce at least a 70% overall response rate.

This pilot trial studies different high-dose chemotherapy regimens with or without total-body irradiation (TBI) to compare how well they work when given before autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) in treating patients with hematologic cancer or solid tumors. Giving high-dose chemotherapy with or without TBI before ASCT stops the growth of cancer cells by stopping them from dividing or killing them. After treatment, stem cells are collected from the patient's blood or bone marrow and stored. More chemotherapy may be given to prepare for the stem cell transplant. The stem cells are then returned to the patient to replace the blood forming cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy.

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vorinostat in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable solid tumors or lymphoma and liver dysfunction. (closed for accrual as of 04/05/2010) Vorinostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Vorinostat may have different effects in patients who have changes in their liver function.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate: whether an imaging test called a PET (Positron emission tomography) scan performed after two cycles of standard chemotherapy is able to identify patients who have a high cure rate after completing standard chemotherapy alone; and whether high dose chemotherapy (HDCT) and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) when used in combination with an antibody called Rituximab results in high cure rates for those patients predicted to do poorly with standard chemotherapy by the PET scan.

RATIONALE: Studying PET scans given to patients with cancer who are undergoing treatment may help doctors predict how patients will respond to treatment. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying PET scans in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma who are receiving rituximab together with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone.

Background: Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) are aggressive subtypes of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Flavopiridol is an investigational drug that works differently from standard chemotherapy and may target abnormalities in MCL and DLBCL cells, such as a protein excess that prevents tumor cells from dying. A challenge in developing flavopiridol for treatment has been determining its optimal dosing schedule. The schedule used for this study is effective in a type of leukemia called chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and may benefit patients with MCL and DLBCL also. Objectives: To determine the highest dose of flavopiridol that can be given safely to patients with relapsed MCL and DLBCL at the dosing schedule detailed below To assess the response of the tumor to flavopiridol given at the test dosing schedule Eligibility: Patients 18 years of age and older with relapsed MCL or DLBCL Design: Flavopiridol is given at four different dose levels, starting with the lowest dose for the first group of three to six patients and increasing with subsequent groups, depending on side effects at the preceding dose. The drug is given weekly for 4 weeks followed by a 2-week break (one cycle) for up to six cycles. It is given through a vein as a 30-minute infusion followed by a 4-hour infusion. Patients undergo the following procedures for research studies and to evaluate the effect of treatment on the tumor: Blood tests Lymph node, bone marrow and tumor biopsies Lymphapheresis to collect blood cells for research Disease staging with imaging studies (computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (PET) and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) after every 2 cycles

This study was conducted to evaluate the complete response rate of Ibrutinib + R-CHOP in patients with Epstein-Barr virus-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

This study will evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of induction treatment with obinutuzumab, polatuzumab vedotin, and venetoclax in participants with relapsed or refractory FL, and with rituximab, polatuzumab vedotin, and venetoclax in participants with DLBCL. Participants with FL who achieve complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) at the end of induction therapy will receive post-induction treatment with obinutuzumab and venetoclax, and participants with DLBCL who achieve CR or PR at the end of induction (EOI) will receive post-induction treatment with rituximab and venetoclax.

This is a Phase 2, open-label, multicenter trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CUDC-907 in subjects 18 years and older with Relapsed/Refractory (RR) MYC-altered Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL).

This study will evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of induction treatment with obinutuzumab, polatuzumab vedotin, and lenalidomide in participants with relapsed or refractory (R/R) follicular lymphoma (FL) and rituximab in combination with polatuzumab vedotin and lenalidomide in participants with R/R diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), followed by post-induction treatment with obinutuzumab in combination with lenalidomide in participants with FL who achieve a complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) at end of induction (EOI) and post-induction treatment with rituximab plus lenalidomide in participants with DLBCL who achieve a CR or PR at EOI.
