Active clinical trials for "Lymphoma"

The purpose of this study is to determine the potential of denosumab to treat Hypercalcemia of Malignancy in patients with elevated serum calcium who do not respond to recent treatment with intravenous bisphosphonates by lowering corrected serum calcium </= 11.5 mg/dL (2.9 millimoles /L) by day 10.

To test a new way to approach hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for Relapsed or Resistant Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma.

Additional active agents are needed to further improve the treatment of patients with CLL/SLL. Increasing information exists regarding the activity of arsenic trioxide in other hematologic malignancies. Since arsenic trioxide produces mild to moderate myelosuppression and is not as immunosuppressive as other available agents, it may be an additional treatment option for CLL/SLL. This study will evaluate the feasibility and toxicity of arsenic trioxide in patients with relapsed or refractory CLL/SLL

Study of Yttrium-ibritumomab (Zevalin) For the treatment of Patients with Relapsed & Refractory Mantle Cell Lymphoma

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the ability of two different fixed doses of pegfilgrastim (6mg and 12mg) and a by-weight dose of filgrastim (5ug/kg/day) for the mobilisation and collection of PBPCs for autologous transplantation after chemotherapy.

The primary purpose of this trial is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), or the maximum acceptable dose (MAD) and evaluate the dose limiting toxicity (DLT) of oral vorinostat in patients with malignant lymphoma.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate a multi-dose regimen of SGN-30, a novel chimeric monoclonal antibody (mAb), in patients with refractory or recurrent CD30+ hematologic malignancies. This is a single-arm, open-label phase I/II study designed to define the toxicity profile, pharmacokinetic (PK) profile, and anti-tumor activity of a multi-dose regimen of SGN-30 in patients with refractory or recurrent CD30+ hematologic malignancies. The phase I study will be a modified dose escalation of SGN-30. Based on preclinical pharmacology and toxicokinetics (TK) and the first use in human single-dose phase I study, SGN-30 will be administered on a weekly schedule. An initial dose of 2 mg/kg will escalate until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) has been reached or until a weekly dose of 12 mg/kg is achieved.

In Europe diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a rare disease whereas in Italy it is not. Approximately 40% of DLBCL patients has refractory disease or will relapse after initial response. In onco-hematology, a role for gut microbiota (GM) in mediating immune activation in response to chemotherapy, has been suggested. In this scenario, the Investigators hypothesized that GM could play an important role in DLBCL prognosis and response to treatment, establishing a connection between lifestyle and clinical response. The project is aimed to the study of the functional GM layout in association with specific patterns of treatment response in de novo DLBCL undergoing standard first line chemo-immunotherapy. Results may build the scientific basis to design new and personalized intervention strategies (both in treatment approach and in life-style recommendations), to enhance clinical response and reduction of disease refractoriness through modulation of the gut microbial ecosystem.

This is a Phase 1, multi-center, open-label study of TRPH-222 monotherapy in subjects with relapsed and/or refractory B-cell NHL. The study will be conducted in two Stages: Dose-Escalation, Dose-Expansion.

This phase II trial studies how well stem cell transplant with or without tbo-filgrastim works in treating patients with multiple myeloma or non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Eliminating the use of tbo-filgrastim after transplant may still help maintain a similar time to discharge.
