Nemtabrutinib and Pembrolizumab for the Treatment of Richter Transformation, Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma Subtype
Description

NOT YET RECRUITING - This phase II trial tests how well nemtabrutinib in combination with pembrolizumab works in treating patients with Richter transformation, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma subtype (RT-DLBCL). Nemtabrutinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It blocks a protein called BTK, which is present on B-cells (a type of white blood cell) in cancers such as Richter transformation at abnormal levels. This may help keep cancer cells from growing and spreading. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving nemtabrutinib in combination with pembrolizumab may kill more cancer cells in patients with RT-DLBCL.

NOT_YET_RECRUITING
Zanubrutinib in Combination With Odronextamab for the Treatment of Patients With Richter's Transformation
Description

This phase I trial tests the safety and side effects of zanubrutinib in combination with odronextamab and how well it works in treating patients with Richter's transformation. Zanubrutinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, blocks a protein called Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK), which may help keep cancer cells from growing. Odronextamab is a bispecific monoclonal antibody that can bind to two different antigens at the same time. Odronextamab binds to CD20 found on B-cells (a type of white blood cell) and on many B-cell cancers and to CD3 on T-cells (also a type of white blood cell) and may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving zanubrutinib in combination with odronextamab may be safe, tolerable and/or effective in treating patients with Richter's transformation.

WITHDRAWN
Venetoclax, Rituximab and Nivolumab in Combination for the Treatment of Richter's Transformation Arising From Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma
Description

This phase II trial tests how well venetoclax, rituximab and nivolumab works in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) with Richter's transformation. Richter's transformation can be described as the development of an aggressive lymphoma in the setting of underlying CLL/SLL that has a very poor prognosis with conventional therapies and represents a significant unmet medical need. Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking BCL-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab and nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving venetoclax, rituximab and nivolumab together may work better than the conventional intensive immunochemotherapy to improve disease control in patients with Richter's transformation arising from CLL/SLL.

RECRUITING
Zanubrutinib and Lisocabtagene Maraleucel for the Treatment of Richter's Syndrome
Description

This phase II trial tests how well zanubrutinib and lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) work together in treating patients with Richter's syndrome. Richter's syndrome occurs when chronic lymphocytic leukemia and/or small lymphocytic leukemia transforms into an aggressive lymphoma, which is a cancer of the lymph nodes. Zanubrutinib is a class of medication called a kinase inhibitor. These drugs work by preventing the action of abnormal proteins that tell cancer cells to multiply, which helps stop the spread of cancer. Liso-cel is a type of treatment known as chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy. CAR T-cell therapy is a type of treatment in which a patient's T cells (a type of immune system cell) are changed in the laboratory so they will attack cancer cells. T cells are taken from a patient's blood. Then the gene for a special receptor that binds to a certain protein on the patient's cancer cells is added to the T cells in the laboratory. The special receptor is called a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). Large numbers of the CAR T cells are grown in the laboratory and given to the patient by infusion for treatment of certain cancers. Giving zanubrutinib and liso-cell together may kill more cancer cells in patients with Richter's syndrome.

COMPLETED
Duvelisib and Nivolumab in Treating Patients With Richter Syndrome or Transformed Follicular Lymphoma
Description

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of duvelisib when given together with nivolumab in treating patients with Richter syndrome or transformed follicular lymphoma. Duvelisib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving duvelisib and nivolumab may work better in treating patients with Richter syndrome or transformed follicular lymphoma compared to giving duvelisib or nivolumab alone.

RECRUITING
Loncastuximab Tesirine and Mosunetuzumab for the Treatment of Relapsed or Refractory Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma
Description

This phase II trial studies the safety and how well of loncastuximab tesirine when given together with mosunetuzumab works in treating patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Loncastuximab tesirine is a monoclonal antibody, loncastuximab, linked to a toxic agent called tesirine. Loncastuximab attaches to anti-CD19 cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers tesirine to kill them. Mosunetuzumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving loncastuximab tesirine with mosunetuzumab may help treat patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

A Study to Assess the Adverse Events, Change in Disease Activity, and How Intravenously Infused ABBV-319 Moves Through the Bodies of Adult Participants With Relapsed or Refractory (R/R) Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL), Follicular Lymphoma (FL), or Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)
Description

B-cell Lymphoma is an aggressive and rare cancer of a type of immune cells (a white blood cell responsible for fighting infections). Follicular Lymphoma is a slow-growing type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common leukemia (cancer of blood cells). The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of ABBV-319 in adult participants in relapsed or refractory (R/R) diffuse large b-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), R/R follicular lymphoma (FL), or R/R CLL. Adverse events will be assessed. ABBV-319 is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of R/R DLBCL, R/R FL, or R/R CLL. This study will include a dose escalation phase to determine the doses of ABBV-319 that will be used in the next phase and a dose expansion phase to determine the change in disease activity in participants with R/R DLBCL, R/R FL, and R/R CLL. Approximately 154 adult participants with R/R B cell lymphomas including R/R DLBCL, R/R FL, and R/R CLL will be enrolled in the study in sites world wide. In the Dose Escalation phase of the study participants will receive escalating intravenously infused doses of ABBV-319 in 21-day cycles, until the Phase 2 dose is determined. In the dose expansion phase of the study participants receive intravenously infused ABBV-319 in 21-day cycles. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at an approved institution (hospital or clinic). The effect of the treatment will be frequently checked by medical assessments, blood tests, questionnaires and side effects.

Modified Immune Cells (CD19/CD20 CAR-T Cells) in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Refractory B-Cell Lymphoma or Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Description

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of CD19/CD20 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells when given together with chemotherapy, and to see how effective they are in treating patients with non-Hodgkin's B-cell lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia that has come back (recurrent) or has not responded to treatment (refractory). In CAR-T cell therapy, a patient's white blood cells (T cells) are changed in the laboratory to produce an engineered receptor that allows the T cell to recognize and respond to CD19 and CD20 proteins. CD19 and CD20 are commonly found on non-Hodgkin?s B-cell lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells. Chemotherapy drugs such as fludarabine phosphate and cyclophosphamide can control cancer cells by killing them, by preventing their growth, or by stopping them from spreading. Combining CD19/CD20 CAR-T cells and chemotherapy may help treat patients with recurrent or refractory B-cell lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

A Clinical Trial to Learn About the Study Medicine Called Maplirpacept (PF-07901801), Alone and When Used in Combination With Other Medicines to Treat Participants With Advanced Hematological Malignancies, Including Lymphoma, Leukemia and Multiple Myeloma
Description

The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn how the experimental medicine maplirpacept (PF-07901801) affects people with various types of blood cancers: * relapsed or refractory (R/R) lymphoma * multiple myeloma * newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This trial will be conducted in the outpatient setting in 2 parts, phase 1a and phase 1b. You may only participate in one part of the study. During phase 1a of this study, we will explore how much maplirpacept (PF-07901801), when used by itself, can be safely used. If you have lymphoma, the study medicine maplirpacept (PF-07901801) will be given by infusion through a vein once a week or once every 2 weeks or every 3 weeks as determined by your doctor. Following your first dose, you will be expected to come back twice more the first week. From week 2, you will have weekly visits for blood tests, questions about your medications, any side effects, or illnesses you may have experienced and your cancer response. After you have completed 21 days (for every week dosing) or 42 days (for every 2- or 3-weeks dosing), your doctor will discuss whether you should stop study treatment or continue. If you continue, you will be expected to come back weekly for blood tests, vital signs, a brief physical exam, asked about any side effects or illnesses you may have experienced and medications you may be taking. The dosing schedule you are assigned to will continue until your disease has worsened, significant side effects occur or other reasons that lead you and your doctor to decide treatment may be stopped. To be eligible for the first part of the study you must be 18 years or older, your disease has worsened after receiving other medicines approved for blood cancer, no other treatment options exist for you, a sample of your tissue for exploratory research which can be taken from tissue already obtained or if necessary, a new sample of your tissue will be taken so your disease may be seen and measured on routine tests/scans. If you have had radiation therapy or received any anticancer medication within 14 days before the planned start of study treatment your doctor will let you know if you are eligible to participate in the study. If you have had major surgery within 30 days before the planned start of study treatment you may not be eligible to participate. The phase 1a part of the study may last up to 51/2 years. How long you participate in this study depends on side effects you may have to the study drug. It also depends on how your cancer responds to the study drug. Therefore, you may remain in the study as long as you and your study doctor think you may benefit. However, you are free to stop taking part in this study at any time and for any reason. During phase 1b part of this study, we will explore how much maplirpacept (PF-07901801), when used with other anticancer medicine(s), can be safe and reduce cancer growth. In the phase 1b part of this study, you will receive maplirpacept (PF-07901801) and other anticancer medicine(s). Which medicine combination you will receive depends on the types of cancer under treatment. Your treatment experiences will be examined to determine if maplirpacept (PF-07901801) when given with other anticancer medicine(s), is safe and can reduce cancer growth. To be eligible for the second part of the study you may have newly diagnosed Acute Myelocytic Leukemia with or without a genetic mutation or you have Multiple Myeloma or Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma, and your disease has worsened. The Phase 1b part of this study may last as long as you and your study doctor think you may benefit which could be up to approximately 31/2 years. How long you participate in this study depends on side effects you may have to the study drug. It also depends on how your cancer responds to the study drug. Therefore, you may remain in the study as long as you and your study doctor think you may benefit. However, you are free to stop taking part in this study at any time and for any reason.

CART19 to Treat B-Cell Leukemia or Lymphoma That Are Resistant or Refractory to Chemotherapy
Description

This is a Pilot/Phase I, single arm, single center, open label study to determine the safety, efficacy and cellular kinetics of CART19 (CTL019) in chemotherapy resistant or refractory CD19+ leukemia and lymphoma subjects. The study consists of three Phases: 1) a Screening Phase, followed by 2) an Intervention/Treatment Phase consisting of apheresis, lymphodepleting chemotherapy (determined by the Investigator and based on subject's disease burden and histology, as well as on the prior chemotherapy history received), infusions of CTL019, tumor collection by bone marrow aspiration or lymph node biopsy (optional, depending on availability), and 3) a Follow-up Phase. The suitability of subjects' T cells for CTL019 manufacturing was determined at study entry. Subjects with adequate T cells were leukapheresed to obtain large numbers of peripheral blood mononuclear cells for CTL019 manufacturing. The T cells were purified from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells, transduced with TCR-ζ/4-1BB lentiviral vector, expanded in vitro and then frozen for future administration. The number of subjects who had inadequate T cell collections, expansion or manufacturing compared to the number of subjects who had T cells successfully manufactured is a primary measure of feasibility of this study. Unless contraindicated and medically not advisable based on previous chemotherapy, subjects were given conditioning chemotherapy prior to CTL019 infusion. The chemotherapy was completed 1 to 4 days before the planned infusion of the first dose of CTL019. Up to 20 evaluable subjects with CD19+ leukemia or lymphoma were planned to be dosed with CTL019. A single dose of CTL019 (consisting of approximately 5x10\^9 total cells, with a minimal acceptable dose for infusion of 1.5x10\^7 CTL019 cells) was to be given to subjects as fractions (10%, 30% and 60% of the total dose) on Day 0, 1 and 2. A second 100% dose of CTL019 was initially permitted to be given on Day 11 to 14 to subjects, providing they had adequate tolerance to the first dose and sufficient CTL019 was manufactured.

COMPLETED
Donor Stem Cell Transplant in Treating Patients With Previously Treated Lymphoma, Multiple Myeloma, or Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Description

RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide and busulfan, and total-body irradiation before a donor stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It also stops the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells from bone marrow or umbilical cord blood may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving methotrexate and cyclosporine after transplant may stop this from happening. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well a donor stem cell transplant works in treating patients with previously treated lymphoma, multiple myeloma, or chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
