Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Prolymphocytic"

Prolymphocytic leukemia T is a rare disease representing approximately 2% of mature lymphoid leukemias and 20% of prolymphocytic leukemias. It mainly affects the elderly with an aggressive clinical course. It is a hemopathy exhibiting a post thymic T phenotype (Tdt-, CD1a-, CD5 +, CD2 + and CD7 +), generally CD4 + / CD8-, but also CD4 + / CD8 + or CD8 + / CD4-. The main feature of T-PLL is the rearrangement of chromosome 14 involving genes encoding the T cell receptor complex (TCR) subunits, leading to overexpression of the proto-oncogene TCL1. On the molecular level, the study of Prolymphocytic leukemia T shows a substantial mutational activation of the IL2RG-JAK1-JAK3-STAT5B axis. Patients with Prolymphocytic leukemia T have a poor prognosis, due to a poor response to conventional chemotherapy. Treatment with the anti-CD52 monoclonal antibody: alemtuzumab has considerably improved the results, but the responses to treatment are transient; therefore, patients who obtain a response to alemtuzumab treatment are candidates for stem cell allograft (TSS) if they are eligible for this procedure. This combined approach extended the median survival to four years or more. However, new approaches using well-tolerated therapies that target signaling and survival pathways are necessary for most patients who are unable to receive intensive chemotherapy, such as JAK STAT axis inhibitors, anti-AKT, or anti BCL2 . Main objective: Better manage prolymphocytic T leukemias. Secondary objectives: Molecular characterization of prolymphocytic leukemia T. Study of the response to treatment, disease-free survival, overall survival. Impact of prognostic factors on response to treatment, and survival.

The purpose of this registry study is to create a database-a collection of information-for better understanding T-cell lymphoma. Researchers will use the information from this database to learn more about how to improve outcomes for people with T-cell lymphoma.

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and the best dose of alvespimycin hydrochloride in treating patients with relapsed chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), or B-cell prolymphocytic leukemia (B-PLL). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as alvespimycin hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing.

This phase II trial is studying how well flavopiridol works in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or prolymphocytic leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as flavopiridol, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing

This phase II trial studies how well giving lenalidomide with or without rituximab works in treating patients with progressive or relapsed chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), prolymphocytic leukemia (PLL), or non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Giving lenalidomide together with or without rituximab may kill more cancer cells.

Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of arsenic trioxide in treating patients who have relapsed or refractory lymphoma or leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fludarabine and cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some find cancer cells and kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Others interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving fludarabine and cyclophosphamide together with rituximab may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving fludarabine and cyclophosphamide together with rituximab works in treating patients with B-cell prolymphocytic leukemia.

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and the best dose of alvocidib when given together with cyclophosphamide and rituximab in treating patients with high risk B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Alvocidib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can also block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Other find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Giving cyclophosphamide, alvocidib, and rituximab together may kill more cancer cells.

This was a multicenter, Phase 1, standard 3+3 dose-escalation study to evaluate the safety and anti-neoplastic activity of moxetumomab pasudotox in relapsed or refractory participants with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), prolymphocytic leukemia (PLL) or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (SLL).

Obatoclax may stop the growth of chronic lymphocytic leukemia by blocking blood flow to the cancer and by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fludarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. 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. Giving obatoclax together with fludarabine and rituximab may kill more cancer cells. This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of obatoclax when given together with fludarabine and rituximab in treating patients with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
