Peripheral Stem Transplantation in Treating Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Clinical Trials Data presented on Clinical Trials Search is not meant to be a substitute for qualified medical advice, visits or professional assistance with a genuine dr.. We are not doctors. Always consult your mD about Peripheral Stem Transplantation in Treating Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma conditions. Clinical Trials Search.org is a site devoted to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. Peripheral Stem Transplantation in Treating Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Clinical research trials and Peripheral Stem Transplantation in Treating Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma medical trials take place in many of places throughout the U.S.A.. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials usually evaluate the effectiveness of new does drugs. The purpose of the studies / projects is to solve specific human healthcare questions. Clinical trials are a popular way for mDs, government agencies, and private sector companies to find cures for all varieties of conditions, like Peripheral Stem Transplantation in Treating Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Peripheral Stem Transplantation in Treating Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Clinical Trials and other clinical trials allow for volunteers to have health treatment options before they are available to the masses. Many times the human subjects acquire professional assistance for free of charge, and sometimes they are compensated for their time. Occasionally there is a cost for a Peripheral Stem Transplantation in Treating Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma clinical trial. Test subjects typically obtain the finest healthcare available for their Peripheral Stem Transplantation in Treating Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma condition. Dangers are a reality, nevertheless, and might include additional or frequent doctor trips, medical dangers (possibly life-jeopardising), and/or the treatment being ineffectual. Trials are federally regulated with strict guidelines to protect clinical trials patients.

Peripheral Stem Transplantation in Treating Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma



Peripheral Stem Transplantation in Treating Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

For Condition: childhood lymphoblastic lymphoma,Graft Versus Host Disease,childhood large cell lymphoma,adult non-Hodgkin's lymphoma,childhood small noncleaved cell lymphoma
Status: Recruiting
Sponsor(s): Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center , National Cancer Institute (NCI)
Synopsis: RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with autologous and allogeneic peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs to kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of autologous peripheral stem cell transplantation followed by allogeneic peripheral stem cell transplantation in treating patients who have refractory or relapsednon-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Details: OBJECTIVES: - Assess engraftment of HLA-identical peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) allografts given after conditioning with total body irradiation and postgrafting immunosuppression with cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil in patients with refractory or relapsed non-Hodgkin's lymphoma treated with initial autologous PBSC transplantation. - Determine nonrelapse mortality at day 100 in patients treated with this regimen. - Determine disease-free and overall survival of patients treated with this regimen. OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to response to prior chemotherapy (sensitive vs resistant). Patients who do not have autologous peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) stored receive mobilization on another protocol, then have PBSC collected and stored. Patients then proceed to conditioning and transplantation. Patients may receive one of two conditioning regimens. - Regimen 1: Patients receive cyclophosphamide IV on days -6 and -5 followed by total body irradiation (TBI) twice a day on days -3 to -1. Autologous PBSC are reinfused on day 0. - Regimen 2: Patients receive carmustine IV over 3 hours on day -7, etoposide IV over 2 hours and cytarabine IV over 3 hours twice a day on days -6 to -3, and melphalan IV over 30 minutes on day -2. Autologous PBSC are reinfused on day 0. Some patients may receive involved field irradiation to bulky disease after autologous PBSC reinfusion and before nonmyeloablative allograft. Within 40-120 days after autologous PBSC transplantation, patients proceed to nonmyeloablative allograft. Cyclosporine administered orally twice daily on days -3 to 56, then tapered based on disease risk. TBI is administered on day 0 followed by allogeneic PBSC infusion. Patients also receive oral mycophenolate mofetil twice a day beginning on day 0 and continuing until day 27. Based on day 56 disease status, patients may receive donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) if there is evidence of disease progression and no evidence of graft-vs-host disease. DLI may be repeated every 65 days for up to 4 doses. Patients are followed weekly for 3 months, at 4 and 6 months, every 6 months for 2 years, and then annually until 5 years after transplantation. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 40 patients will be accrued for this study within 4 years.
