Active clinical trials for "Lymphoma"

This project proposes to establish a prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical study to compare the safety and efficacy of Intralesional Rituximab Injection versus Involved Site Radiation Therapy for the treatment of primary ocular adnexal MALT lymphoma. The aim is to provide high-level clinical evidence for the treatment of ocular adnexal MALT lymphoma and to offer patients treatment options that have fewer complications and comparable therapeutic effects.

The primary purpose of the study is to investigate the safety of tazemetostat in participants with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma with EZH2 gene mutation under daily clinical practice.

This is a single-arm, open-label, clinical pharmacology study to evaluate safety and efficacy of oncolytic virus injection(RT-01) in patients with Relapsed or Refractory T-cell Lymphoma. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability, antitumor activity, The immunoreactivity, The immunogenicity, pharmacokinetics and virus shedding of RT-01.

Utilization data will be collected from all patients entered on the trial at Canadian centres from the time of registration until death, removal from study, or completion of 10 years of follow-up. Protocol-specified health care utilization will be collected within trial case report forms, and will include study visits, radiographic assessments, laboratory investigations, and treatment administration. Resource utilization data collection will be supplemented by a self-administered resource utilization form (Stanford SMRC) to document non-protocol specified utilization. This will include hospitalizations (including days in hospital), emergency room visits, and non-protocol specified ambulatory visits.

To explore PFS, ORR (CR/CRu+PR), OS and side effects of piamprizumab combined with RMA in newly diagnosed PCNSL, so as to clarify the value of piamprizumab combined with RMA in the first-line treatment of PCNSL patients, and to clarify the clinical and biological factors affecting the efficacy

The role of autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in the first remission (CR1 & PR1) of peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) is not well defined. This study analyzed the impact of ASCT on the clinical outcomes of patients with newly diagnosed PTCL in CR1 and PR1.

Background: Cancer has a major impact in the United States and across the world. In 2015, over 1.5 million new cases of cancer were diagnosed in the U.S. Researchers want to study samples from people with cancer or a pre-malignant condition. They hope to develop more effective treatments. Objective: To better understand the biology of malignancies and why certain cancers respond differently to treatment. Eligibility: Adults at least 18 years old with cancer or a pre-cancerous condition. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical exam, and blood tests. Their diagnosis will be confirmed by the NCI Laboratory of Pathology. Participants will send tissue blocks or slides from their original tumor biopsy. At least once, participants will have a medical history, physical exam, and blood and urine tests. Participants may have the following tests. They may have them more than once: Apheresis. A needle in one arm removes blood. Blood is run through a machine and the sample cells are taken out. The rest of the blood is returned by a needle in the other arm. Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy. The hipbone will be numbed. A needle will be put into the hipbone. Bone marrow will be taken out through the needle. Piece of cancer tissue taken by a needle and syringe. Computed tomography (CT) scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and/or positron emission tomography (PET) scan or ultrasound to help locate their tumor. For the scans, they lie in a machine that takes pictures. A small piece of skin removed. Participants will be contacted by phone once a year to find out how they are doing.

The Czech National Lymphoma Registry (NiHiL) was founded to monitor epidemiologic data and improve the diagnostic evaluation and quality of treatment of patients with non-Hodgkin´s lymphoma (NHL). The patients are registered into the registry in anonymized form. For each patient are available: registration form, diagnostic form, treatment form, follow- up form, and other malignancy form. Data quality in the NiHiL has been checked by audits. The data is analyzed according to NHL subtypes with endpoints: lymphoma distribution, epidemiological data, prognostic characteristic, treatment characteristics, response rate, relapse rate, mortality, PFS, OS, DFS, Lymphoma specific survival, longterm toxicity.

Lymphoma is the most common hematologic tumor. It is derived from lymphoid tissue, including Hodgkin's lymphoma(HL) and non Hodgkin's lymphoma(NHL). The treatment of lymphoma includes chemotherapy, radiotherapy, stem cell transplantation, targeted therapy and surgery etc. With the progress of treatment, the survival rate of lymphoma patients has been improved. But the 5 year survival rate of lymphoma in China is shorter than that in United States. The reason is that there is still a gap between China and the United States in disease screening, diagnosis and treatment. Observational studies, especially cohort studies, are important tools for understanding disease progression, treatment, and prognosis in the real world. Observational cohort studies which involve over 500 patients are currently launched by South Korea and the United States. China, which has more patients, doesn't have a cohort of patients with lymphoma. So the primary objective of this study was to establish an observational cohort of patients with lymphoma in China and follow up the patients for a long period of time to provide basic support for clinical research and drug development, and continuously improve patient outcomes and quality of life. The secondary objective is to collect information about diagnosis, treatment, follow-up and prognosis of lymphoma.

Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is an uncommon disease. Conventional treatment has consisted of either whole-brain radiation therapy (WBRT) or methotrexate (MTX)-based combined modality therapy integrating chemotherapy with cranial irradiation in a sandwiched manner. No matter whether the dosage of MTX is high or conventional, combining chemotherapy with WBRT greatly improves intracranial tumor control and even survival outcomes. However, delayed treatment-related neurotoxicity and neurocognitive sequelae emerged as a significant debilitating complication in PCNSL patients, especially when effective combined chemoradiation can achieve disease control and long-term survival rates. Therefore, by delivering hyperfractionated conformal WBRT plus SIB, this prospective cohort study aims to accomplish both optimal intracranial control and minimal WBRT induced neurocognitive decline. Additionally, by administering objective multi-domain neurobehavioral/neurocognitive assessments, the change in neurocognitive functions (NCFs) before and after the course of hyperfractionated conformal WBRT will be investigated and analyzed. According to the treatment guidelines for treating newly-diagnosed PCNSL patients, combined chemoradiation in which the WBRT course is sandwiched between initial courses of MTX and the later courses of chemotherapy with Ara-C is the treatment of mainstay at our institute. Employing the technique of a conformal CT treatment planning, the WBRT course is delivered in the manner of hyperfractionation with a reduced cumulative dose of 3600 cGy in 30 fractions during 3-4 weeks, administered twice daily in 1.2 Gy - fractions with at least 6 hours between fractions. By virtue of multidisciplinary management and teamwork including neurosurgery, hematology, radiation oncology, and neuroimaging expertise, it is attempted to recruit all potentially eligible patients with newly-diagnosed PCNSL. Most importantly, a professional neuropsychologist participates in this research project to integrate neurobehavioral outcomes into the prospective study. Accordingly, a battery of neuropsychological measures is used to evaluate predetermined NCFs for the studied patients. The test battery is composed of six standardized neuropsychological tests, covering four domains sensitive to disease and treatment effects (executive function, attention, verbal memory, information processing). The primary outcome measure is the change in patients' capability of information processing indicated by the Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test-Revised (PASAT-R), from the baseline before receiving the WBRT course to the follow-up after undergoing the entire courses of combined chemoradiation. This prospective cohort study aims to thoroughly examine newly diagnosed PCNSL patients by using a standard battery of neurobehavioral/neurocognitive functions. Additionally, a better intracranial disease control is expected since the WBRT course relies on a highly conformal treatment planning integrated with the individualized arrangement of simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) to escalate the focal dose irradiating the originally involved site(s). Moreover, WBRT-related neurocognitive sequelae might be significantly less likely to occur because the WBRT course is delivered in the fashion of hyperfractionation, indicating a significantly lower dose per fraction and a reduced cumulative dose. Furthermore, it is anticipated the investigators will analyze which neurobehavioral domain would predict the treatment-related neurocognitive impacts to the largest extent in newly diagnosed PCNSL patients treated with cranial RT combined with or without MTX based chemotherapy according to the multidisciplinary treatment guidelines implemented at a single institute.
