Active clinical trials for "Lymphoma"

This will be a cohort study of all patients receiving Cluster of Differentiation 19 (CD19)-specific CAR T cell therapy for relapsed/refractory B cell haematological malignancies. Patients will receive cardiac assessment and have serum cardiac biomarkers, ECG, transthoracic echocardiogram and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging performed at baseline prior to CAR T cell therapy, 7 days post CAR T cell infusion, and 3 months post CAR T cell infusion. Abnormalities in these cardiac investigations will be used to demonstrate cardiac injury and identify which patients are most at risk of developing cardiac injury related to CAR T cell therapy.

This study enrolled patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma treated with polatuzumab vedotin-based chemoimmunotherapies. Patients were allowed to use chemotherapy regimens other than Rituximab and Bendamustine and transplantation following polatuzumab vedotin was also allowed.

Lymphomagenesis is partially known, and some risk factor are identified like those inducing immune deficiencies: chronic exposure to HIV, immune suppressor therapies or commun variable immunodeficiency. Parts of the mechanisms leading to NHL development after pesticide exposure are the disruption of immune surveillance against cancer cell. Pro-oncogenic action of metabolites is the most important mechanisms of action for pesticides. Thus, pesticides are metabolized in pro-oxidant compounds disturbing the redox homeostasis in the haematopoietic and immune cells precursors, promoting proliferation and survival, and inducing DNA breaks. Some of them induce direct DNA breaks and non-conform reparation, leading to activation of oncogenes; and other induces transcription factors for oncogenic signalling pathways. DNA reparation and adaptation to a higher ROS level are associated with resistance against cytotoxic chemotherapy treatment with induction of detoxification mechanism by tumour cells. That DNA repair pathways, which are targeted by chemotherapy could also explain a part of chemo-resistance. It was therefore suggested that DLBCL dependence to specific DNA repair pathways could be targeted to hamper repair of intrinsic DNA damage occurring during B-lymphoma cells proliferation or to increase DNA damage induced by chemotherapy.

The study aims to evaluate the prognostic value on the complete metabolic response rate (MCR), the incidence of relapse / progression, the Progression Free Survival (PFS) and the Overall Survival (OS). at diagnosis after the first cycle of CHOEP (early evaluation) at the end of treatment

The objective of this study is to determine the effectiveness of lenalidomide in subjects with relapsed or refractory Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) following ibrutinib treatment. MCL subjects who require treatment after receiving ibrutinib therapy are considered a population with high unmet medical need. It is therefore of benefit to have data on the outcomes of treatment options available in this patient population. An observational study design was chosen to collect the clinical data already existing or being collected for MCL subjects being treated with lenalidomide. MCL subjects who received lenalidomide either as monotherapy or as combination treatment after having relapsed or progressed on ibrutinib treatment or were refractory or intolerant to ibrutinib treatment are eligible for the study. Lenalidomide does not need to be the next subsequent treatment after ibrutinib.

RATIONALE: Studying samples of tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors identify and learn more about biomarkers related to cancer. it may also help doctors predict how patients will respond to treatment. PURPOSE: This research trial studies biomarker expression in tissue samples from young patients with anaplastic large cell lymphoma.

The purpose of this study is to observe correction of haemoglobin (Hb) levels in patients receiving chemotherapy as a consequence of a solid tumour, a malignant lymphoma or a multiple myeloma and who are treated with Retacrit™.

The purpose of this study is to see if a new way of imaging called the Cerenkov luminescence or effect that is used with a standard clinical PET/CT and/or investigation scans can be done in order to capture tumor sizes. The investigators believe endoscopies and surgical procedures could benefit from this type of imaging in the future. The Cerenkov imaging could be used as a guide for surgical resections. The purpose of this study is to use the Cerenkov light from FDG, Iodine-131 tracer sand/or other investigational tracers to image tumors and its sizes in the head, neck, breast, axillary and pelvic regions with a highly sensitive camera. The investigators will be trying to see if we can get another picture of the tumor using the Cerenkov light as part of the standard clinical scan or therapy.

This French national, multicenter, prospective, longitudinal, observational study will describe the treatment modalities of a cohort of patients with relapsed or refractory follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, with evaluation of the cohort overall and according to the presence or not of MabThera® (rituximab) maintenance therapy. Actively participating physicians will enroll patients and collect therapeutic management data in a real-life setting up to 5 years.

RATIONALE: Studying samples of tumor tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors identify and learn more about biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors find better ways to treat cancer. PURPOSE: This research trial studies genes in samples from patients with limited and advanced diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
