Active clinical trials for "Lymphoma"

The risk of immunosuppression deters many patients from receiving fludarabine, while combination chemotherapy regimens are poorly tolerated by elderly or infirm chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients. Previous studies by our group and others have shown that rituximab is safe and well tolerated when used as a single agent in patients with CLL. In addition, maintenance therapy with rituximab was well tolerated by CLL patients, with probable prolongation of progression-free survival (Hainsworth et al. 2003). Based on pre clinical and clinical studies indicating possible increased efficacy of ofatumumab in patients with CLL, we wish to develop an antibody-only regimen for older patients and patients who refuse fludarabine-based regimens.

This study is designed to test the non-inferiority of the experimental arm compared to the standard arm in terms of progression free survival (PFS).

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and the best dose of lenalidomide when given together with temsirolimus and to see how well it works in treating patients with Hodgkin lymphoma or non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has come back after a period of improvement or is not responding to treatment. Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Lenalidomide may also stop the growth of Hodgkin lymphoma or non-Hodgkin lymphoma by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Temsirolimus may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving lenalidomide together with temsirolimus may kill more cancer cells.

The purpose of this study is to determine safety and tolerability of combination therapy of SGN-40 with gemcitabine and rituximab for the treatment of lymphoma. This study is also intended to estimate how well your disease responds to this treatment.

To determine the efficacy (response rate) produced by the combination of Gemzar, Novantrone, and Rituxan in relapsed or refractory MCL

This study will aims to determine the maximum tolerated dose of CGC-11047 when used in individual combinations with gemcitabine, or docetaxel, or bevacizumab, or erlotinib or cisplatin or 5-flurouracil or sunitinib in one of 7 treatment arms. The dose of CGC-11047 will be escalated until the maximum tolerated dose is established.

This was a prospective, open-label, Phase III, multicenter, single-arm trial designed to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of an alternative dosing rate of rituximab in previously untreated patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and follicular non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL).

The primary objective of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and to establish the recommended phase 2 dose of oral OSI-027 when administered via 3 schedules, namely, intermittent, weekly, and continuous in patients with advanced solid tumors or lymphoma, namely, intermittent, weekly, and continuous.

This phase II trial is studying how well umbilical cord blood transplant from a donor works in treating patients with hematological cancer. Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation (TBI) before a donor umbilical cord blood transplant helps stop the growth of cancer and abnormal cells and helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from an unrelated donor, that do not exactly match the patient's blood, are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells (called graft-versus-host disease). Giving cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil before and after transplant may stop this from happening.

Phase 1 study to determine safety, tolerability, dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), and recommended Phase 2 dose of AV-299 administered IV as monotherapy to patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors, lymphoma, or multiple myeloma. The study will also determine the safety, tolerability and DLTs of AV-299 in combination with erlotinib in patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors.
