Active clinical trials for "Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin"

Primary Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of Zevalin for the treatment of low-grade follicular Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the orbit or mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) of conjunctiva using radiographic imaging, clinical examination (slit lamp biomicroscopy and external examination of the conjunctiva), and external photography whenever possible. To establish the safety profile in this patient population using clinical examination including slit lamp biomicroscopy, and evaluation of the tear film with Schirmer's test. To establish the dosimetry for Zevalin in the orbit in the first 3 patients who agree to undergo dosimetry.

Oxaliplatin will be used instead of cisplatin in well-known salvage regimen of etoposide, methylprednisolone, cytarabine and cisplatin (ESHAP). Clinical efficacy and toxicity of this ESHAOX salvage regimen will be evaluated in refractory or relapsed non-Hodgkin's lymphoma patients.

This study was an early-phase trial arranged into two phases. The Phase I portion was a dose-escalation study designed to assess the safety, tolerability and to identify the maximum tolerated dose of SB-743921 in patients with Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma and Hodgkin Lymphoma. Phase II was intended to assess the activity, safety and tolerability of SB-743921 in patients with Indolent and Aggressive Non-Hodgkin's Lymphomas exclusively. The Phase II portion of the study was not initiated.

This research is being done to develop new treatment for non-hodgkin's lymphoma in subjects whose cancer has returned or resisted treatment with chemotherapy. The investigational drug clofarabine is being used in this study. An investigational drug is one that has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The goals of this protocol are to determine the effect of oxaliplatin, cytosine arabinoside, and dexamethasone with Rituxan (ROAD) as treatment for patients with relapsed CD20+ B-cell non-Hodgkins lymphoma (NHL).

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of a treatment regimen using Zevalin® plus Rituxan® for patients who have low grade Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL) or relapsed Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and have been previously treated. This study will use an experimental scheduling regimen. No chemotherapy will be used in this study.

This study is a multicentric trial evaluating the efficacy of the RFM regimen in patients aged 18 to 75 years with relapsed/refractory follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL).

Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of 506U78 in treating patients who have lymphoma that has not been treated previously or that has not responded to previous treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage cancer cells. Combining chemotherapy with monoclonal antibody therapy and radiation therapy may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy plus rituximab and radiation therapy in treating patients who have stage I or stage II non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more cancer cells. Bone marrow or peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy to kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying giving high-dose chemotherapy followed by bone marrow or peripheral stem cell transplantation to see how well it works in treating patients with refractory Hodgkin's disease or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
