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

This is an open-label, combined 2-part multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of blinatumomab in adult and pediatric Japanese patients with relapsed/refractory B-precursor ALL.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of carfilzomib when given together with the hyperfractionated (hyper)-cyclophosphamide, vincristine sulfate, doxorubicin hydrochloride, and dexamethasone (CVAD) chemotherapy regimen in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoma. Carfilzomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, vincristine sulfate, doxorubicin hydrochloride, and dexamethasone, 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 carfilzomib with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells.

This was a single arm, open-label, multi-center, phase II study to determine the efficacy and safety of an experimental therapy called CTL019 T-cells in pediatric patients with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, who were refractory to standard chemotherapy regimen or relapsed after allogeneic stem cell transplant.

Outcomes for children with relapsed/refractory (R/R) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) are dismal. Therefore, the investigators performed this multicenter, phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and , safety and pharmacokinetic of clofarabine in Chinese pediatric patients with R/R ALL

This pilot clinical trial studies the feasibility of choosing treatment based on a high throughput ex vivo drug sensitivity assay in combination with mutation analysis for patients with acute leukemia that has returned after a period of improvement (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). A high throughput screening assay tests many different drugs individually or in combination that kill leukemia cells in tiny chambers at the same time. High throughput drug sensitivity assay and mutation analysis may help guide the choice most effective for an individual's acute leukemia.

Adult survivors of childhood cancer are at high risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Therapies used to treat many cancers, such as chemotherapy and radiation, likely cause damage to the surface of the artery wall called the endothelial layer, leading to the induction of atherosclerosis and eventual cardiovascular disease. HMG coenzyme A reductase inhibitors, or statins, improve endothelial function independent of cholesterol-lowering. In addition, statins have been shown to reduce arterial stiffness and slow arterial thickening. Despite strong evidence supporting the vascular benefits of statins in many different patient populations, these medications have never been studied in cancer survivors. Therefore, the overall objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of statin therapy on vascular health in young adult survivors of childhood cancer. Twenty-four young adult (age 18-39 years old) survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) will be enrolled in a six-month randomized, double-blind (participants and investigators), placebo-controlled pilot clinical trial comparing the effects of atorvastatin versus placebo on endothelial function and other measures of vascular health. Our primary objective is to evaluate the effects of 6-months of statin therapy on conduit artery endothelial function in young adult survivors of childhood cancer. The investigators hypothesize that, compared to placebo, atorvastatin will significantly increase brachial artery flow-mediated dilation in survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Primary objectives: To establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of BEZ235 when administered twice daily (BID) as a single agent in patients with relapsed or refractory acute leukemia To determine the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) Secondary objectives: Assess the safety and tolerability of daily oral administration of BEZ235 with a BID schedule To describe preliminary anti-leukemic activity of BEZ235 in patients with acute leukemia To correlate changes in pharmacodynamic biomarkers with basic pharmacokinetic data Exploratory objectives: To assess pre-treatment phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway-related genes in blast cells and all other malignant cells derived from blood or bone marrow. To assess the pharmacodynamic changes in components of the PI3K-protein kinase B (AKT)-mTOR pathway in bone marrow following treatment as potential predictive biomarkers of pharmacodynamic (PD) activity of BEZ235 in association with clinical responses. To identify potential resistance mechanisms and biomarkers that may correlate with efficacy and response from blood and bone marrow samples pre-and post-treatment in case of resistance

This study evaluates the value of bortezomib in combination with specified chemotherapies for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

This randomized phase II trial studies how well intravenous (IV) chemotherapy or oral chemotherapy works in treating patients with previously untreated stage III-IV human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-associated non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin hydrochloride, vincristine sulfate, prednisone, lomustine, etoposide, and procarbazine hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of the study drug known as LY3039478 in combination with dexamethasone in participants with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-ALL/T-LBL).
