Active clinical trials for "Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin"

This phase I clinical trial is studying the side effects and the best dose of lenalidomide after donor bone marrow transplant in treating patients with high-risk hematologic cancer. Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing.

This single-arm, open-label, multi-centre study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of MabThera/Rituxan (rituximab) in patients with follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with minimal residual disease after autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (bone marrow or peripheral blood). Two groups of patients will be considered for treatment. Group A: Patients with evaluable minimal tumor mass, Group B: Patients with complete response and abnormal B-cell lymphoma 2 (bcl2) status. Patients will receive MabThera/Rituxan 375 mg/m2 intravenously once every week. The anticipated time on study treatment is 4 weeks.

This phase I trial is studying the side effects, best way to give, and best dose of Akt inhibitor MK2206 (MK2206) in treating patients with recurrent or refractory solid tumors or leukemia. MK2206 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

The study was set up to assess the efficacy and tolerability of a chemotherapy-immunotherapy combination programme originally introduced by GMALL (the German cooperative group for adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia)in 2002, to improve remission rate, overall and disease-free survival rates of adult patients with Burkitt's leukemia and lymphoma. The therapy includes a maximum of six chemotherapy courses (two with high doses of methotrexate and cytarabine) plus anti-CD20 antibody (Rituximab, up to 8 total doses), supplemented by local radiation therapy in the case of initial mediastinal or central nervous system (CNS) involvement or a residual tumor after chemotherapy.

This Phase II, single-arm, open-label, multicenter trial is designed to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of PRO95780 when combined with rituximab in patients with follicular, CD20-positive B-cell NHL that has progressed following previous rituximab therapy.

This phase II trial is studying how well sunitinib works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse or mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma. Sunitinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the cancer.

Participants with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) or Hodgkin disease (HD) will be assigned to one of 2 arms based on the immunophenotype of their lymphoma. (A)Participants with CD20(-) lymphoma will undergo mobilization with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and plerixafor. (B) Participants with CD20(+) lymphomas will undergo mobilization with rituximab, G-CSF, and plerixafor. They will receive a weekly dose of rituximab beginning 1 week prior to, and continuing until 2 weeks after, the first dose of G-CSF. Participants in both groups will receive G-CSF twice daily for 4 days. In the evening on Day 4, a dose of plerixafor will be administered. Apheresis will be initiated the next morning. Participants will continue to receive G-CSF twice daily and to receive the evening dose of plerixafor followed by apheresis the next morning for up to a total of 4 aphereses or until ≥5*10^6 CD34+ cells/kg are collected. Participants who are transplanted will be monitored for the time to polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN), platelets (PLT), and lymphocyte engraftment. Follow-up assessments will be done at 100 days, and 6 and 12 months post-transplantation.

Subjects who qualify will receive oral lenalidomide daily on days 1-21 of every 28 day cycle. Treatment will continue until disease progression, or unacceptable adverse events develop

The Phase 1 portion of the study evaluated the pharmacokinetic profile and safety of ABT-263 with the objective of defining the dose limiting toxicity and maximum tolerated dose in subjects with lymphoid malignancies. The Phase 2a portion of the study is evaluating ABT-263 using a step-up dosing regimen and may be increased to the defined recommended Phase 2 dose to obtain additional safety information and a preliminary assessment of efficacy in subject with lymphoid malignancies. The Extension portion of the study is to allow Phase 2a subjects who remain active 1 year after the last subject enrolls or who have been on study approximately 1 year to continue receiving ABT-263 with less frequent study evaluations. Subjects in the Extension Study will continue receiving study drug for up to 7 years after the last subject transitions to the Extension Study, or until disease progression or toxicity that necessitates discontinuation (whichever comes first).

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Combinations of biological substances in denileukin diftitox may be able to carry cancer-killing substances directly to cancer cells. Giving rituximab together with denileukin diftitox may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving rituximab together with denileukin diftitox works in treating patients with previously untreated stage III or stage IV follicular B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
