Active clinical trials for "Lymphoma"

T- cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) or T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LLy) has an increase in proteins in a specific pathway called the mTOR pathway within the cancer cells. In cancer cells it can encourage untimely cell growth, cell production, and cell survival. Everolimus is an inhibitor of the mTOR pathway and can decrease the growth and survival of cancer cells. It also prevents communication within cells and stops proteins from being made that may contribute to leukemia. The main purpose of the study is to find the maximum tolerated dose of everolimus when used together with standard chemotherapy.

It's the first-in-human study of Recombinant Humanized Anti-CD20 Monoclonal Antibody for Injection (B001). The main purpose of this study is to explore the safety and tolerance of B001 for patients with CD20 positive B-cell non Hodgkin's lymphoma. It will also explore the PK/PD manner and ORR in this study.

The primary purpose of this study is to see if Sym021 is safe and tolerable as monotherapy, in combination with either Sym022 or Sym023, and in Combination with both Sym022 and Sym023 for patients with locally advanced/unresectable or metastatic solid tumor malignancies or lymphomas that are refractory to available therapy or for which no standard therapy is available.

Follicular lymphoma (FL) is an indolent yet incurable lymphoma characterized by initial responses to standard therapies, invariably followed by shorter disease free intervals. Obinutuzumab, a novel type II, anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody has been approved in combination with chlorambucil for the treatment of previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and in combination with bendamustine followed by obinutuzumab alone for FL who did not respond to, or who progressed during or after treatment with rituximab or a rituximab-containing regimen, or in relapse after such treatment. Additionally, venetoclax, a small molecule Bcl-2 inhibitor, showed single agent activity in relapsed/refractory (R/R) CLL and other B-cell lymphomas, including R/R FL. Preclinical evidence suggests a synergism of the two drugs in vitro as well as in different lymphoma in vivo models. Based on single agent clinical activity and on the preclinical data of the combination of both drugs and aiming to develop a new chemotherapy-free combination regimen, this trial plans to evaluate the combination of obinutuzumab and venetoclax in previously untreated FL patients in need of systemic therapy. This phase I study will provide information on the safety and tolerability together with evidence of preliminary antitumor activity. Combination treatment consists of a 6 cycles of 28 days each. The combination therapy is followed by a 2 years maintenance with obinutuzumab. Dosing of obinutuzumab is as per Swissmedic approval in FL.Venetoclax will be administered in different dose levels according to the trial design.

Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL) is the most frequent cancer in children. The survival rate has improved significantly during the last decades, but the treatment still fails to cure 15 % of the patients. Within the Nordic/Baltic countries, children are treated according to the same protocol, i.e. NOPHO ALL-2008 protocol. Children and adolescents with Lymphoblastic Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (LBL) are treated in accordance with the EURO-LB 02 protocol, whereas adults with Lymphoblastic Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma in Denmark are commonly treated in accordance with the NOPHO ALL-2008 protocol. The longest treatment phase in both protocols is maintenance therapy, which is composed of 6-Mercaptopurine (6MP) and Methotrexate (MTX). The cytotoxic property of 6MP relies upon conversion of 6MP into thioguanine nucleotides (TGN), which can be incorporated into DNA instead of guanine or adenine. This incorporation can cause nucleotide mismatching and cause cell death second to repetitive activation of the mismatch repair system. At Rigshospitalet investigators have developed pharmacological methods able to measure the incorporation of TGN into DNA (DNA-TGN). In a Nordic/Baltic study the investigators have demonstrated higher levels of DNA-TGN during maintenance therapy in children with ALL that do not develop relapse (Nielsen et al. Lancet Oncol. 2017 Apr;18(4)). Preliminary studies indicate that the best approach to obtain DNA-TGN within a target range could be a combination of 6MP, MTX and 6-thioguanine (6TG), as 6TG more readily can be converted into TGN. This study aims to explore if individual dose titration of 6TG added to 6MP/MTX therapy can achieve DNA-TGN levels above a set target above 500 fmol/µg DNA, and thus can be integrated into future ALL and LBL treatment strategies to reduce relapse rates in ALL and LBL. The investigators plan to include 30 patients, and A) give incremental doses of 6TG until a mean DNA-TGN level above 500 fmol/µg DNA is obtained; and B) analyze the changes in DNA-TGN as well as cytosol levels of TGN and methylated 6MP metabolites (the latter inhibits purine de novo synthesis and thus enhance DNA-TGN incorporation), and C) occurrence of bone-marrow and liver toxicities during 6TG/6MP/MTX therapy.

This study is examining a chemotherapy regimen and immune suppressive medications in the setting of an allogeneic stem cell transplant. A pilot clinical trial to characterize the incidence, prevalence and function of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and immune checkpoint regulators (V-domain Ig Suppressor of T-cell Activation [VISTA], cytotoxic T-lymphocyte- associated protein 4 [CTLA-4], programmed death-ligand 1 [PD-L1]) during early immune recovery following an allogeneic stem cell transplant. The site will use a myeloablative regimen of fludarabine with busulfan, adopted from CALGB 100801, to define clinical endpoints, including engraftment, 100 day survival and one year survival (Objective #1). The site will characterize the incidence, prevalence and function of MDSCs and immune checkpoint regulators in patients' blood and bone marrow following transplantation (Objective #2). The site will correlate these laboratory results with clinical outcomes and the incidence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). As an exploratory aim, in those patients experiencing GVHD and requiring treatment, the site will define the MDSCs frequency and checkpoint regulator expression and correlate these results with the patient's response to GVHD therapy.

A multi-center, open-label, phase Ib study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the administration of tisagenlecleucel in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with r/r DLBCL who have received 2 or more lines of systemic therapy, including an anti-CD20 and anthracycline based chemotherapy and having failed to or are not candidates for ASCT. The study will consist of 2 parts: dose timing selection part and expansion part.

Malignant anterior mediastinal tumors essentially include lymphomas and thymomas. The location of mediastinum is anatomically close to several critical organs such as heart, lung, and breasts, which might be affected meaningfully when the mediastinal region is irradiated. There have been quite a few studies investigating long-term toxicities concerning the above critical organs and risks of secondary malignancies related to treatment regimens combining chemotherapy and mediastinal radiotherapy. With the advancement of modern radiotherapy, highly conformal and intensity modulated radiotherapy have become a radiotherapeutic standard in recent years. However, most previous studies analyzed patients treated in the era of 2D techniques rather than conformal 3D plans. Almost inevitably, a large volume of the heart and lung was irradiated via the 2D technique with which substantial dose levels might be given to these organs unavoidably. Certainly long-term radiotherapy related toxicities are significantly associated with the dose and volume irradiating the normal organs at risk. Relying on the techniques of modern conformal radiotherapy and the contemporary strategy of multimodality therapy, the dose and volume irradiating the heart and lung were considerably reduced. Therefore, objective tools including heart echocardiography and lung function test will be utilized in this prospective study to evaluate and monitor mainly the patients diagnosed as malignant lymphoma who are recommended to receive mediastinal radiotherapy in the era of modern treatment strategy and techniques. The participants potentially included in the current study are mainly lymphoma patients with mediastinal malignant lymphoma or patients whose radiation therapy field essentially encompasses anterior mediastinum. Patients are prospectively enrolled in this study after physicians' clinical judgement. After signing the consent form, the recruited patient will receive comprehensive pre-radiotherapy evaluations, including cardiac echocardiography, laboratory tests (BNP, and NT-pro BNP), and lung function tests. Participants who are particularly female patients under the age of 45 will receive pre-radiotherapy breast echocardiography. Radiotherapy treatment planning of both photon and proton respectively will be simulated on Eclipse® treatment planning system. Subsequently participants will receive mediastinal RT within one month after being enrolled in the study. Eligible patients should receive standard multidisciplinary treatment as the tumor board at our institute has suggested. Modern radiotherapy techniques comprise all available modalities in our hospital, including photon or proton beams, intensity-modulated radiotherapy, volumetric modulated arc therapy, image-guidance, and breathing control system. The prescription of treatment field designing and dose scheme will comply with our institutional protocols and updated cancer treatment guidelines. Participants will receive longitudinal follow-up examinations at 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36 months after the start of RT course. Standardized examinations include the above mentioned cardiac echocardiography and relevant tests. It is anticipated that long-term mediastinal RT-related late effects are prospectively and longitudinally surveyed through consistent heart examinations and lung function tests. Long-term effects are expected to be lower with using maturely and widely adopted modern RT techniques. Therapeutic and survival outcomes are expected to be satisfactory, achieving the international level in this prospective observational study focusing on mainly lymphoma patients with mediastinal involvement who are suggested and scheduled to receive mediastinal RT as part of the combined modality treatment. This study aims to standardize the application of clinical examinations including cardiac echocardiography, lung function tests, and relevant laboratory tests as part of objective tools for monitoring patients' cardiac and pulmonary functions after receiving mediastinal RT. Therefore, it is expected that the risk factors of predisposing patients to develop cardiac toxicities after chemoradiation particularly including mediastinal RT will be explored and identified. In addition objectivity of BNP (or NT-pro BNP) will also be verified in combination with the objective measurement and findings obtained from cardiac echocardiography. It is anticipated that our study would be an important and leading one that integrates radiation oncology, hematology, cardiology, and pulmonology into prospective and longitudinal cardiopulmonary surveillance carried out for mainly malignant lymphoma patients undergoing mediastinal RT in this era of modern chemoradiation.

In this Phase I study, the study team will evaluate the safety of Valproic Acid (VPA) expanded cord blood stem cells defined by the lack of serious infusion reactions or graft failure in patients with hematological malignancies undergoing umbilical cord blood transplantation. Moreover, the study team will also evaluate time to neutrophil and platelet engraftment as well as transplant related outcomes such as graft versus host disease (GVHD), treatment related mortality (TRM), and overall survival (OS).
