Active clinical trials for "Lymphoma"

Doxil or Doxorubicin to be administered was administered in a dose of 50 mg/m2 as infusion over 15 minutes. Blood samples to be obtained at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours

The aim of the trial is to test whether adding 6 injections of rituximab to standard "Lymphome malin B" LMB chemotherapy regimen improves the Event Free Survival (EFS) compared with LMB chemotherapy alone in children / adolescents with advanced stage B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) / B-Acute Leukemia (B-AL)(stage III and LDH > Nx2, any stage IV or B-AL).

Primary objective: To compare the event free survival for 3years of R-CHOP plus Biocell Natural Killer Cell to R-CHOP therapy with DLBCL patients.

To explore in a multicenter international prospective randomized study (phase III) whether rituximab combined with the standard French LMB chemotherapy scheme results in a higher rate of EFS than the LMB chemotherapy scheme alone in patients older than 18 years with Burkitt lymphoma or ALL 3.

Predicting response to chemotherapy in patients with Hodgkin's disease or lymphoma high-grade malignant de novo or recurrence. The non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and high-grade Hodgkin's disease may show resistance to chemotherapy, regardless of their initial extension. The failure of treatment is most often correlated with an incomplete answer or lack of response to chemotherapy as a result chemoresistance. This drug, which may involve the gene MDR1 (multidrug resistance) encoding the protein PGP, can be studied in vivo by MIBI scan. The MIBI is behind a tracer perfusionnel used routinely to explore myocardial perfusion, but it has other characteristics of fixing, which can be used in oncological imaging (fixation by glial tumors of high grade).Prospective Study, which includes conducting a tomoscintigraphie 30 minutes after injection of 20 mCi of 99mTc-MIBI in initial stock or relapse of high-grade lymphoma and Hodgkin's disease any stage (I-IV). Fixing the MIBI is compared with morphological abnormalities detected by CT and the setting of lesions by 18FDG. Patients will be treated in a traditional way, without changes in treatment protocols used in routine. Patients with a negative MIBI scan, will be watched with particular attention in order to detect insufficient response to chemotherapy. The only change, the care of patients, only for the achievement of an initial consideration of non-invasive imaging, further, which is the tomoscintigraphie the MIBI. Of the tumor samples, will be evaluated by immunohistochemistry, the expression of PGP and the MRP1 (two proteins associated with the drug). On blood, may be carried out genotyping of MDR1, MRP1 and MRP2 to the patient.

The most frequent cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL) are mycosis fungoid and Sezary syndrome. The diagnosis of these lymphomas is difficult using current methods, especially because numerous benign dermatological conditions can mimick CTCL both clinically and under microscopic examination. Recently, the KIR receptor CD158k has been shown to be a marker for Sezary syndrome in both the blood and skin. We hypothesize that other receptors from the same family may help fro the diagnosis of these lymphomas. To address this issue, we will study the expression of all known KIR receptor in the skin of patients presenting with a skin eruption, which may correspond to either a cutaneous T-cell lymphoma or a benign dermatological disease. The final diagnosis will be established by a panel of experts, allowing constitution of 2 groups of patients : the cutaneous T-cell lymphoma group, and the benign inflammatory disease group. The expression of the different KIRs will be analyzed in both group in a blinded fashion, in order to determine whether one or a several KIRs may be differentially expressed.

This is an open label, prospective study to evaluate therapeutic potential of Tazarotene 0.1% cream for the treatment of Stage I-IIA CTCL. Patients with Stage I-IIA disease are enrolled into the study. Tazarotene will be used for up to 24 weeks and patients will be followed for up to 12 months.

This is an open-label, single-center Phase 1/2 study with a dose-escalation phase (Part 1) and a cohort expansion phase (Part 2) in patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL).

This is a diagnostic prospective multicenter study. This study will be conducted in 32 centers of the Société Française des Cancers et Leucémies de l'Enfants et de l'Adolescent (SCFE) in patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma and treated according to recommendations of the SFCE for each type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. All patients will have a PET / CT associated with conventional imaging time of remission assessment. Histological examination of residual tumor will be conducted whenever practicable in patients with pathologic residual image on conventional imaging and / or PET / CT. A central review of conventional imaging examinations and PET / CT will be performed independently from each other. Moreover, whenever possible, patients will have a PET / CT at diagnosis and an early PET / CT (between J8 and J28 according to the type of lymphoma and toxicities due to treatment). The results of the early PET / CT should not lead to treatment modifications. In case of residual tumor at remission assessment, therapeutics changes as recommended therapeutic protocols will be based on histologic findings and not on the results of PET / CT alone.

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if the drug Feraheme ® (ferumoxytole) helps researchers most clearly to "see" cancerous lymph nodes on an MRI scan. Researchers also want to learn if ferumoxytole may be used in liver imaging. Ferumoxytole is designed to deliver iron to treat iron-deficiency anemia (low red blood cell counts) in patients with chronic kidney disease. In this study, it will be used as an MRI contrast. Contrasts are used by doctors in order to see MRI images more clearly.
