6 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This phase II trial tests how well venetoclax works in treating patients with hairy cell leukemia that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed). 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.
Background: CAR (Chimeric Antigen Receptor) T cell therapy is a type of cancer treatment in which a person s T cells (a type of immune cell) are changed in a laboratory to recognize and attack cancer cells. Researchers want to see if this treatment can help people with hairy cell leukemia (HCL). Objective: To test whether it is safe to give anti-CD22 CAR T cells to people with HCL. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older with HCL (classic or variant type) who have already had, are unable to receive, or have refused other standard treatments for their cancer. Design: Participants will be screened with the following: Medical history Physical exam Blood and urine tests Biopsy sample Electrocardiogram Echocardiogram Lung function tests Imaging scans Some screening tests will be repeated during the study. Participants may need to have a catheter placed in a large vein. Participants will have magnetic resonance imaging of the brain. Participants will have a neurologic evaluation and fill out questionnaires. Participants will have leukapheresis. Blood will be removed from the participant. A machine will divide whole blood into red cells, plasma, and lymphocytes. The lymphocytes will be collected. The remaining blood will be returned to the participant. Participants will get infusions of chemotherapy drugs. Participants will get an infusion of the anti-CD22 CAR T cells. They will stay at the hospital for 14 days. Then they will have visits twice a week for 1 month. After treatment, participants will be followed closely for 6 months, and then less frequently for at least 5 years. Then they will have long-term follow-up for 15 years.
This phase II trial studies how well ibrutinib works in treating patients with hairy cell leukemia that has returned after a period of improvement. Ibrutinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
Background: Most people with hairy cell leukemia have a BRAF gene mutation. They can be treated with BRAF inhibitors, drugs that target this mutation. For people who do not have this mutation, BRAF inhibitors are not a treatment option. We found that in hairy cell leukemia, when BRAF is not mutated, the MEK gene frequently is. Binimetinib is a MEK inhibitor which targets MEK. It is important to determine if this drug can be a good treatment option in those who cannot benefit treatment with BRAF inhibitors. Objective: To see if binimetinib is an effective treatment for hairy cell leukemia that does not have a BRAF mutation. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with hairy cell leukemia without a mutation in the BRAF gene and whose disease either did not respond to treatment or came back after treatment Design: Participants will be screened with: * Medical history * Physical exam * Blood and urine tests * Lung and heart tests * Eye exam * Bone marrow biopsy: A needle will be injected through the participant s skin into the bone to remove a sample of marrow. * CT or MRI scan: Participants will lie in a machine that takes pictures of the body. They might receive a contrast agent by vein. Before they start treatment, participants will have an abdominal ultrasound, pulmonary function tests, and exercise stress tests. Participants will take binimetinib by mouth twice daily in 28-day cycles. They will keep a medication diary. Participants will have at least one visit before every cycle. Visits will include repeats of some screening tests. Participants may continue treatment as long as their disease does not get worse and they do not have bad side effects. About a month after their last dose of treatment, participants will have a follow-up visit. They will then have visits once a year. ...
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of intravenous (IV) and subcutaneous (SC) administration of XmAb13676 and to determine the maximally tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended dose (RD).
Background: Hairy cell leukemia (HCL) is a rare, slow-growing blood cancer in which the bone marrow makes too many of certain white blood cells. The antibody Rituximab/Ruxience binds to a protein in cancerous white blood cells and is often used to treat HCL. Researchers want to see if combining it with the drug Moxetumomab pasudotox-tdfk (also called Lumoxiti) can fight HCL better. Objective: To test the safety of Moxetumomab pasudotox taken with Rituximab/Ruxience for people with HCL or HCL variant. Eligibility: People age 18 years and older with HCL or HCL variant that has not responded to standard therapy Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood, heart, and urine tests Test of blood oxygen levels Review of bone marrow. This can be from previous test results or a new sample. Scans Exercise test Participants will get the study drugs in up to 8 cycles. A cycle will last about 28 days. The study drugs will be given through a plastic tube in a vein. In the first week of cycle 1, participants will have: 1 visit to get Rituximab or Ruxience for 7.5 hours 3 visits to get Lumoxiti for 30 minutes per infusion In the first week of cycles 2-8, participants will have: 1. visit to get Rituximab/Ruxience for 2-4 hours and Lumoxiti for 30 minutes 2. visits to get Lumoxiti for 30 minutes per infusion Participants will be asked to drink lots of water and take aspirin during the cycles. They will get drugs to minimize allergic reactions. Participants will repeat screening tests at visits throughout the cycles and 1 follow-up visit. They may have an eye exam. ...
