NCT00003784
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. Monoclonal antibodies can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy followed by monoclonal antibody therapy in treating patients who have newly diagnosed follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
NCT00081068
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as alemtuzumab, can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well alemtuzumab works in treating patients with Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia.
NCT00142181
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effects (good or bad) of Campath-1H antibody in the treatment of lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma.
NCT00003805
RATIONALE: Antibiotic therapy may prevent the development of infection in patients with hematologic cancer and the persistent fever caused by a low white blood cell count. It is not yet known which regimen of antibiotics is most effective in preventing infection in these patients. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to study the effectiveness of piperacillin-tazobactam with or without vancomycin in reducing fever in patients who have leukemia, lymphoma, or Hodgkin's disease.
NCT00660166
The purpose of this research study is to examine the safety of infusing escalated doses of allogeneic (from a relative of the patient), enriched natural killer (NK) cells after autologous (from the patient) stem cell transplantation. The hypothesis is that the infusion of these NK cells early after an autologous stem cell transplant will help to eliminate and eradicate any residual cancerous cells that remain in the body and may have survived the chemotherapy or radiation.
NCT00005788
RATIONALE: Interleukin-2 may stimulate a person's white blood cells to kill lymphoma cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of interleukin-2 in treating patients who have mycosis fungoides or Sezary syndrome.
NCT00333190
The purpose of this trial is to determine if selectively removing only a small subset of T cells, called CD8+ T cells, is safe and if it can reduce the risk of graft versus host disease (GVHD) without losing the anti-cancer effects.
NCT00144703
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the ability of sirolimus to prevent graft versus host disease (GVHD) in patients following stem cell transplant from a related donor.
NCT00144677
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the ability of sirolimus to prevent graft versus host disease (GVHD) in patients following stem cell transplant from an unrelated donor. This trial is designed to test the hypothesis that elimination of methotrexate in the unrelated donor group would lead to less transplant-related toxicity while still preserving the effective control of GVHD.
NCT00501735
This is a Phase II, non-randomized, open-label, single-arm trial that will be conducted at up to 50 sites in North America, Europe and Australia. This study is designed to assess objective response (OR) \[complete response (CR) or partial response (PR)\] in subjects with cutaneous manifestations of CTCL with a requirement for maintenance of such objective response for at least 28 days in subjects with stage IIB, III, and IVA CTCL. Additionally, this study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of CTCL subjects Stages IB, IIA, IIB, III, or IVA treated with oral forodesine.
NCT00051597
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a multi-dose regimen of SGN-30, a novel chimeric monoclonal antibody (mAb), in patients with refractory or recurrent CD30+ hematologic malignancies. This is a single-arm, open-label phase I/II study designed to define the toxicity profile, pharmacokinetic (PK) profile, and anti-tumor activity of a multi-dose regimen of SGN-30 in patients with refractory or recurrent CD30+ hematologic malignancies. The phase I study will be a modified dose escalation of SGN-30. Based on preclinical pharmacology and toxicokinetics (TK) and the first use in human single-dose phase I study, SGN-30 will be administered on a weekly schedule. An initial dose of 2 mg/kg will escalate until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) has been reached or until a weekly dose of 12 mg/kg is achieved.
NCT00112619
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as topotecan, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects, best way to give, and best dose of topotecan when given by intraventricular infusion in treating young patients with neoplastic meningitis due to leukemia, lymphoma, or solid tumors.
NCT00003913
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Umbilical cord blood transplantation may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy or radiation therapy that was used to kill cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of umbilical cord blood transplantation plus combination chemotherapy in treating patients who have hematologic cancer or nonmalignant hematologic disease.
NCT00090038
The purpose of this study is to provide treatment for patients who have relapsed Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) or refractory NHL, and to test the immunity of study subjects after receiving four treatments with rituximab.
NCT00510471
The treatment being investigated is a patient- and tumor-specific therapy known as a personalized active immunotherapy. Personalized active immunotherapy is an attempt to use a person's own immune system to combat disease. Sargramostim (a.k.a. GM-CSF) is given together with the personalized active immunotherapy because it may increase the immune system's response and, therefore, aid in the effect of the personalized active immunotherapy. This approach has previously been studied in patients with follicular Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and other B-cell malignancies. Encouraging efficacy results and a favorable safety profile have been seen to date in these studies.
NCT00312845
The purpose of this study is to determine if the combination of VELCADE and rituximab improves progression free survival relative to rituximab alone in patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHL) who never received rituximab or who have previously responded to rituximab. This is an international study being conducted in the United States and in many countries around the world. A complete list of study locations is listed below.
NCT00843050
The purpose of this study is to determine whether P276-00 is safe and effective in treatment of Mantle Cell Lymphoma that is recurred after or not responding to at least one previous line of treatment.
NCT00788099
Phase I Multicenter, Open-label, Clinical and Pharmacokinetic Study of Plitidepsin in Combination with Sorafenib or Gemcitabine in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors or Lymphomas to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the recommended dose (RD) of plitidepsin in combination with sorafenib or gemcitabine in patients with advanced solid tumors or lymphomas.
NCT00298467
This study is an open-label, fixed-dose, multicenter study of MDX-060 in patients with ALCL who have relapsed or refractory disease. There will be 3 phases of this study: Induction, Maintenance, and Follow-up. Patients will be required to attend all protocol-required visits in the 4-week Induction Phase, in which administration of MDX-060 will occur, as well as other testing. Patients who complete the Induction Phase may be eligible for additional MDX-060 treatment ever 2 months for 1 year in the Maintenance Phase. Patients who complete the Maintenance Phase with a response of stable disease or better will be followed every 2 months for 1 year or until disease progression. The purpose of this study is to determine objective response rate at Day 50 in patients with relapsed or refractory classic systemic ALCL or primary cutaneous ALCL treated with MDX-060. Other objectives will be evaluated.
NCT00051012
The purpose of this study is to provide an opportunity for patients who exhibit progressive disease while receiving placebo on the companion 93-04-11 study to receive ONTAK. It is also designed to determine the effectiveness of ONTAK in Cutaneous T-cell Lymphoma (CTCL) patients whose tumors do not express CD25.
