28 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
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.
Master protocol: The goal of this master clinical study is to test how well the study drug, brexucabtagene autoleucel, works in participants with rare B-cell malignancies: relapsed/refractory Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (r/r WM) (Substudy A - no longer recruiting), relapsed/refractory Richter transformation (r/r RT) (Substudy B), relapsed/refractory Burkitt lymphoma (r/r BL) (Substudy C and relapsed/refractory hairy cell leukemia (r/r HCL) (Substudy D - no longer recruiting).
The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad, treatment with vemurafenib (also known as Zelboraf™) has on the patient and on leukemia. Specifically, the researchers want to know how well vemurafenib eliminates leukemia from the blood.
Background: * Researchers are attempting to develop new treatments for hairy cell leukemia (HCL) that has not responded well to or has recurred after standard HCL therapies. One nonstandard treatment for HCL is rituximab, an antibody that binds to the cancer cells and helps the immune system destroy them. By combining rituximab with other anti-cancer drugs, researchers hope to determine whether the combined drugs are successful in treating HCL. * Pentostatin and bendamustine are two anti-cancer drugs that have been used to treat different kinds of blood and immune system cancers. Bendamustine is approved to treat other kinds of leukemia and lymphoma, but it has not been used to treat HCL. Pentostatin has been used for more than 20 years to treat HCL, but it has not been combined with rituximab in official clinical trials. Objectives: * To determine whether rituximab with either pentostatin or bendamustine is a more effective treatment for HCL than rituximab alone. * To determine whether pentostatin or bendamustine is a more effective treatment for HCL when combined with rituximab. Eligibility: - Individuals at least 18 years of age who have been diagnosed with hairy cell leukemia that has not responded well to or has relapsed after standard HCL therapies. Design: * The study will last for four treatment cycles of 28 days each. * Prior to the study, participants will be screened with a full medical history and physical exam, bone marrow biopsy (if one has not been performed in the last 6 months), computed tomography (CT) or ultrasound scan, tumor measurements, and other tests as required by the researchers. Participants will provide blood and urine samples at this time as well. * Rituximab with bendamustine: Participants will receive rituximab on Days 1 and 15 of each cycle and bendamustine on Days 1 and 2 of each cycle, for a total of four cycles. * Rituximab with pentostatin: Participants will receive rituximab on Days 1 and 15 of each cycle and pentostatin on rituximab on Days 1 and 15 of each cycle, for a total of four cycles. * Participants will have regular tests during the treatment cycles, including bone marrow biopsies and CT or ultrasound scans. Participants will also provide regular blood and urine samples to assess the results of treatment.
BL22 is a type of protein that scientists have created to interact with certain cancer cells. Experiments have shown that BL22 can bind with cancer cells that have a particular kind of protein (called CD22 ) on their surface, and can kill those cells. CD22 is present on certain types of hairy cell leukemia (HCL) cancer cells, and researchers have been working on treatments that will use BL22 and other related proteins to interact with and kill these kinds of cancer cells. The primary purpose of this study will be to provide access to and treatment with BL22 for patients who have HCL in order to determine their response to the treatment. In addition, the study will assess potential side effects of BL22 and examine why some patients respond better than others to treatment with BL22 and related therapies. This study will include about 21 to 25 adults who have been diagnosed with forms of HCL that have not responded well to standard treatments such as surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation therapy. These adults also will have received anti-CD22 therapies before, potentially including treatments with BL22, and have not developed immunity or resistance to these treatments. Prior to the study, patients will undergo a 1- to 2-week screening period to assess their eligibility for treatment. Eligible patients will participate in the study for up to 16 cycles of treatment, with each cycle lasting approximately 4 weeks. For each cycle, patients will receive 1 prescribed dose of BL22 every other day for a total of 3 doses per cycle, and will be assessed after every cycle to evaluate the success of the treatment. During the evaluation visits, patients will be required to have a brief physical examination, give blood and urine samples for testing, and undergo other tests as need to check heart and kidney function and assess the state of the leukemia. Patients who agree will give additional blood, urine, or bone marrow samples for future research purposes.
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. ...
This phase I trial studies the best dose and side effects of flotetuzumab for the treatment of patients with blood cancers (hematological malignancies) that have spread to other places in the body (advanced) and have come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Flotetuzumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread.
Background: Hairy cell leukemia (HCL) does not usually respond to chemotherapy. Most people with HCL have a BRAF gene mutation. This can increase the growth of cancer cells. Vemurafenib has been tested to treat these people. However, researchers think a combination of drugs might work better. Objective: To test if treatment with a combination of encorafenib and binimetinib in BRAF mutant HCL is more effective than treatment with vemurafenib. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with BRAF mutant HCL that did not respond to or came back after treatment Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Bone marrow biopsy: A needle will be injected through the participant s skin and into a bone to remove liquid. Blood and urine tests Heart and lung function tests CT or MRI scan: Participants will lie in a machine that takes pictures of the body. They may have a contrast agent injected into a vein. Eye exam Participants will take the study drugs by mouth in 28-day cycles. They will take encorafenib daily. They will take binimetinib twice daily. They will keep a pill diary. Participants will take their temperature daily. Participants will have at least 1 visit before each cycle. Visits will include repeats of some screening tests. They will also include abdominal ultrasounds, exercise stress tests, and skin evaluations. 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. Then they will have annual follow-ups....
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of CPI-613 (6,8-bis\[benzylthio\]octanoic acid) when given together with bendamustine hydrochloride and rituximab in treating patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has come back or has not responded to treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as 6,8-bis(benzylthio)octanoic acid and bendamustine hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, may find cancer cells and help kill them. Giving 6,8-bis(benzylthio)octanoic acid with bendamustine hydrochloride and rituximab may kill more cancer cells.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of ibrutinib in treating B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has returned or does not respond to treatment in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.

It is not yet known whether it is safe for patients with HIV infection to receive ibrutinib while also taking anti-HIV drugs.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of monoclonal antibody therapy before stem cell transplant in treating patients with relapsed or refractory lymphoid malignancies. Radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies, such as yttrium-90 anti-CD45 monoclonal antibody BC8, can find cancer cells and carry cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Giving radiolabeled monoclonal antibody before a stem cell transplant may be an effective treatment for relapsed or refractory lymphoid malignancies.
