Active clinical trials for "Lymphoma, Large-Cell, Anaplastic"

The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of TAK228 that can be given in combination with brentuximab vedotin in patients with lymphoma. The safety of this combination will also be studied. This is an investigational study. TAK228 is not FDA approved or commercially available. It is currently being used for research purposes only. Brentuximab vedotin is FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of different types of lymphoma. The study doctor can explain how the study drugs are designed to work. Up to 18 participants will be enrolled in this study. All will take part at MD Anderson.

FDA approved drugs to treat patients with relapsed or refractory anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) has a median progression free survival of 20 months. Majority of patients relapse in 2 years. This study will evaluate overall response rate of next generation ALK inhibitor brigatinib in ALK positive ALCL patients by overcoming mechanisms of resistance to ALK inhibitors on cancer patients.

This study will determine the safety and applicability of experimental forms of umbilical cord blood (UCB) transplantation for patients with high risk hematologic malignancies who might benefit from a hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) but who do not have a standard donor option (no available HLA-matched related donor (MRD), HLA-matched unrelated donor (MUD)), or single UCB unit with adequate cell number and HLA-match).

This clinical trial studies genetically modified peripheral blood stem cell transplant in treating patients with HIV-associated non-Hodgkin or Hodgkin lymphoma. Giving chemotherapy before a peripheral stem cell transplant 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 and stored. More chemotherapy or radiation therapy is then given to prepare the bone marrow for the stem cell transplant. Laboratory-treated stem cells are then returned to the patient to replace the blood-forming cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy and radiation therapy

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of crizotinib combined with CHOP chemotherapy for patients with ALK(+) Systemic Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma.

The purpose of this study is to estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/ recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) regimen and characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of brigatinib monotherapy (film-coated tablets and age-appropriate formulation [AAF]) administered orally once daily (QD) in pediatric and young adult participants in Phase 1 and to define the efficacy of brigatinib administered as monotherapy within the disease-specific expansion arms (unresectable/recurrent anaplastic lymphoma kinase positive (ALK+) inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT); relapsed/refractory ALK+ anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) in Phase 2.

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of ceritinib when given together with brentuximab vedotin to see how well they work in treating treatment-naive patients with anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma. Ceritinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as brentuximab vedotin, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving ceritinib together with brentuximab vedotin may be a better treatment for ALK-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma.

RATIONALE: Deferasirox may remove excess iron from the body caused by blood transfusions. PURPOSE: This clinical trial studies deferasirox in treating iron overload caused by blood transfusions in patients with hematologic malignancies.

This clinical trial studies massage therapy given by caregiver in treating quality of life of young patients undergoing treatment for cancer. Massage therapy given by a caregiver may improve the quality of life of young patients undergoing treatment for cancer

This pilot clinical trial studies Salvia hispanica seed in reducing the risk of returning disease (recurrence) in patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Functional foods, such as Salvia hispanica seed, has health benefits beyond basic nutrition by reducing disease risk and promoting optimal health. Salvia hispanica seed contains essential poly-unsaturated fatty acids, including omega 3 alpha linoleic acid and omega 6 linoleic acid; it also contains high levels of antioxidants and dietary soluble fiber. Salvia hispanica seed may raise omega-3 levels in the blood and/or change the bacterial populations that live in the digestive system and reduce the risk of disease recurrence in patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
