This study will evaluate the response and long-term effects of alpha-interferon in patients with lymphomatoid granulomatosis (LYG). The disease causes proliferation of destructive cells involving the lungs, skin, kidneys, and central nervous system. Patients ages 12 and older who have LYG and who are not pregnant or breast feeding may be eligible for this study. Alpha interferon or chemotherapy, or both, will be used. Alpha interferon is a protein the body naturally produces. If patients have grade 3 disease, they will usually receive EPOCH-rituximab (EPOCH-R) chemotherapy (each letter representing a drug). If patients have grade 1 or 2 disease, the will usually receive alpha interferon. If patients have LYG after receiving alpha interferon and/or EPOCH-R, they may receive rituximab alone or with alpha interferon. Rituximab is an antibody, binding to a specific molecule (CD20) present on most B-cell lymphomas. Doses of several drugs in EPOCH-R may be increased if patients tolerated them in the previous cycle. If patients respond to EPOCH-R but still have low grade LYG, they may receive alpha interferon. Researchers will also try to obtain a biopsy of patients lesions, to help in understanding the disease. Patients self-administer alpha interferon by injection under the skin three times weekly. They will visit the clinic every 2 to 12 weeks for follow-up. Patients will receive alpha interferon for 1 year after LYG goes away, depending on response. EPOCH-R has these drugs: rituximab by vein on Day 1; prednisone by mouth on Days 1 to 5; etoposide, doxorubicin, and vincristine as a continuous intravenous infusion on Days 1 to 5; and cyclophosphamide by intravenous injection over 1 hour on Day 5. Each cycle lasts 3 weeks: 5 days of chemotherapy and 16 days of no chemotherapy. Etoposide, doxorubicin, and vincristine are infused through a small pump worn by patients. The drugs are given over 5 days through a central intravenous catheter. There are two cycles of EPOCH-R beyond a maximum response, with six cycles minimum. To reduce harm to bone marrow, patients receive granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), self-administered by injection under the skin daily for approximately 10 days between chemotherapy cycles. If at the end of therapy, patients have a complete response, treatment will stop. If there is residual low grade disease, patients may receive alpha interferon. Alpha interferon can have flu-like side effects of headache, fever, chills, and body aches. EPOCH-R drugs can cause gastrointestinal problems, hair loss, and weakness. G-CSF can cause bone pain, body aches, and hair thinning. Chemotherapy can cause some patients to develop leukemia. This study may or may not have a direct benefit for participants. It is not certain whether the new therapy will help decrease tumors. However, knowledge gained may improve the understanding of and treatment for LYG. Read Less

Background: - In allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT), stem cells are taken from a donor and given to a recipient. Sometimes the recipient s immune system destroys the donor s cells. Or donor immune cells attack the recipient s tissues, called graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). This is less likely when the recipient and donor have similar human leukocyte antigens (HLA). Researchers want to see if the drug palifermin improves the results of allogeneic SCT from HLA-matched unrelated donors. Objective: - To see if high doses of palifermin before chemotherapy are safe, prevent chronic GVHD, and improve immune function after transplant. Eligibility: - Adults 18 years of age or older with blood or bone marrow cancer with no HLA-matched sibling, but with a possible HLA-matched donor. Design: Participants will be screened with medical history, physical exam, and blood and urine tests. They will have scans and heart and lung exams. Before transplant, participants will: Have many tests and exams. These include blood tests throughout the study and bone marrow biopsy. Get a central line catheter if they do not have one. Have 1-3 rounds of chemotherapy. Take more tests to make sure they can have the transplant, including medical history, physical exam, and CT scan. Get palifermin by IV and more chemotherapy. They will get other drugs, some they will take for 6 months. Participants will get the SCT. After transplant, participants will: Be hospitalized at least 3-4 weeks. Have tests for GVHD at 60 days and 6 months. These include mouth and skin photos and biopsies. Stay near D.C. for 3 months. Visit NIH 5 times the first 2 years, then yearly. They may have scans and biopsies. Read Less

Background: B-cell leukemias and lymphomas are cancers that are often difficult to treat. The primary objective of this study is to determine the ability to take a patient's own cells (T lymphocytes) and grow them in the laboratory with the CD19/CD22-CAR receptor gene through a process called 'lentiviral transduction (also considered gene therapy) and growing them to large numbers to use as a treatment for hematologic cancers in children and young adults.. Researchers want to see if giving modified CD19/CD22-CAR T cells to people with these cancers can attack cancer cells. In addition, the safety of giving these gene modified cells to humans will be tested at different cell doses. Additional objectives are to determine if this therapy can cause regression of B cell cancers and to measure if the gene modified cells survive in patients blood. Objective: To study the safety and effects of giving CD19/CD22-CAR T cells to children and young adults with B-cell cancer. Eligibility: People ages 3-39 with certain cancers that have not been cured by standard therapy. Their cancer tissue must express the CD19 protein. Design: A sample of participants blood or bone marrow will be sent to NIH and tested for leukemia. Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Urine and blood tests (including for HIV) Heart and eye tests Neurologic assessment and symptom checklist. Scans, bone marrow biopsy, and/or spinal tap Some participants will have lung tests. Participants will repeat these tests throughout the study and follow-up. Participants will have leukapheresis. Blood will be drawn from a plastic tube (IV) or needle in one arm then go through a machine that removes lymphocytes. The remaining blood will be returned to the participant s other arm. Participants will stay in the hospital about 2 weeks. There they will get: Two chemotherapy drugs by IV Their changed cells by IV Standard drugs for side effects Participants will have frequent follow-up visits for 1 year, then 5 visits for the next 4 years. Then they will answer questions and have blood tests every year for 15 years. ... Read Less

Background: Mature T-cell malignancies (TCMs) are a rare group of cancers that usually do not have effective treatments or cures. Because of this, participants with TCMs often relapse and have a poor overall prognosis. This trial is testing if combining several drugs against TCMs can be a more effective. Primary Objective: To test if the combination of romidepsin, CC-486 (5-azacitidine), dexamethasone, and lenalidomide (RAdR) can be given safely to participants with relapsed or treatment refractory TCM. Other (Secondary) Objective: Measure the activity of this combination treatment. Eligibility: People age 18 and older who have a failed or relapsed after standard treatments for mature TCMs. Design: Participants will be screened for eligibility by performing the following tests or procedures: Physical exam Medical history Medicine review Blood and urine tests Symptom review Bone marrow examination Total Body imaging scans or x-rays Tumor biopsy Participants will have blood tests during treatment to make sure their blood cell counts are okay. Romidepsin is infused through an IV placed in one of the veins usually in the arm. Lenalidomide, dexamethasone, and CC-486 (5-azacitidine) are pills or capsules taken by mouth. Participants are asked to keep a diary of when they take their pills to make sure they are taking these medicines properly. Participants will have tumor imaging scans after every 2nd cycle (or 6 weeks) to check if the treatment is working. If the doctors are concerned the cancer has spread to the brain and/or spine, they will have scans of the area(s) and a sampling of the fluid around the brain/spine which is obtained through a small needle inserted into the lower part of the back for a short time to collect the fluid. This procedure is called a spinal tap or lumbar puncture. Participants who have tumor in their skin will have repeat exams of their skin and sometimes photographs taken of these areas to see if the treatment is working. Participants will also be asked to give blood, saliva, and sometimes have optional biopsies of their tumor where these tests are done for research purposes. After they have completed the protocol treatment (6 cycles), they will be asked to return to clinic 30 days after treatment has ended, then every other month (or 60 days) for the first 6 months, then every 3 months (90 days) for 2 years, and then every 6 months for years 2 to 4 after completing treatment. After 4.5 years, they will be seen once a year. Read Less

This study is a first-in-human, Phase 1a/1b, multicenter, open-label study to determine the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of IGM-8444 as a single agent and in combination in subjects with relapsed and/or refractory solid or hematologic cancers, as well as newly diagnosed cancers, and an open-label, randomized study of IGM-8444+FOLFIRI (± bevacizumab).

Background: Non-Hodgkin lymphomas are blood cancers that can be difficult to treat. They can also return after treatment. Examples include diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). More effective treatments are needed for these diseases. Objective: To test the safety of a study drug (VIP152) in combination with other drugs used to treat people with aggressive blood cancers. Eligibility: People aged 18 years or older diagnosed with DLBCL, PTCL, or related blood cancers. The cancers must have either not responded to treatment or returned after treatment. Design: Participants will undergo screening. They will have a physical exam with scans and blood and urine tests. They will have imaging scans and tests of their heart function. They may also provide a bone marrow aspiration or biopsy. Participants may provide a saliva sample for DNA testing. Participants will receive study treatment in cycles. Each cycle is 21 days. Participants will take two drugs by mouth at home once a day on days 1-10 of each cycle. On days 2 and 9 they will come to the clinic to receive VIP152. This drug will be administered through a small plastic tube with a needle placed in a vein. On day 11, participants will receive a fourth medication as an injection under the skin. They will rest and recover on days 12-21. Screening tests will be repeated periodically throughout the study period. Treatment will continue for up to 24 cycles. Participants will have follow-up visits for up to 5 years. Read Less

Background: B-cell lymphoma is a cancer of certain white blood cells (called lymphocytes). These cells are found in lymph nodes. The cancer can cause enlargement of the lymph nodes leading to pain and discomfort. Swollen lymph nodes can also press on nearby organs such as liver and kidneys which can affect normal functioning of the organs. Researchers think that a new combination of drugs may be able to help. Objective: To find out if it is safe to give the combination of Magrolimab, Obinutuzumab and Venetoclax to people with B-cell lymphomas. Eligibility: Adults age 18 and older with an indolent B-cell lymphoma whose disease has returned or progressed after other treatment. Indolent B-cell lymphoma for this protocol is defined as having either follicular lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma or marginal zone lymphoma. Design: Participants will be screened under a separate protocol. Participants will have 28-day 'cycles' of treatment. They will take Venetoclax by mouth daily. They will get Obinutuzumab and Magrolimab by intravenous (IV) infusion. Treatment will last for about 8 months. They may be able to have more cycles of treatment if their cancer is responding well. Participants will have physical exams, medical histories, and medicine reviews. Data about how they function in their daily activities will be obtained. They will have blood and urine tests. They may have bone marrow tests. Participants will have imaging scans. These will include computed tomography (CT) and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans and positron emission tomography (PET) scans. Participants may give a cheek swab or saliva sample. They may give tumor tissue and bone marrow samples. These samples may be used for gene testing. Participants will have a follow-up visit about 30 days after treatment ends. Then they will have visits every 3 months for the first 2 years, every 6 months for the next 3 years, and then yearly after that. Read Less

Background: Secondary central nervous system lymphoma (sCNSL) is cancer that has spread to the central nervous system. Most drugs used to treat it do not cross the blood-brain barrier. This makes it hard to treat. Researchers hope that a new combination of drugs may be able to help. Objective: To find a better way to treat sCNSL. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with sCNSL Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood, urine, and heart tests Eye exam Tissue or tumor biopsy Collection of cerebrospinal fluid CT, PET, and MRI scans: Participants will like in a machine that takes pictures of the body. Bone marrow aspirations or biopsies: A needle will be inserted into the participant s hipbone. The needle will remove a small amount of marrow. Participants will take the study drugs in 21-day cycles. They will take some drugs by mouth. They will take others through a catheter: A small tube will be inserted into a vein in the arm, neck, or chest. They may have drugs given through a catheter placed through the brain or injected into the spinal canal. Participants will have regular visits during the study. These will include repeats of the screening test. They may also provide a saliva sample or have a cheek swab. Participants will have up to 4 treatment cycles. Participants will have a follow-up visit 30 days after their last treatment dose. Then they will have visits every 3-6 months for 3 years and then yearly.... Read Less

Background: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is the most common type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Most people with this cancer can be cured. But those who are not cured have a poor prognosis. Researchers want to add another drug to standard treatment see if it can improve the cure rate. Objective: To see if the drug acalabrutinib given with rituximab and standard combination chemotherapy can improve the cure rate of aggressive B-cell lymphomas such as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with an aggressive B-cell lymphomas that have not been treated Design: Participants will be screened with: Blood and urine tests Physical exam Medical history Tumor biopsy Bone marrow biopsy: A needle will remove marrow from the participant s hipbone. Lumbar puncture: If necessary, a needle will remove fluid from the participant s spinal canal. Imaging scans Participants will take the study drug for up to 14 days. It is a pill taken 2 times a day. Then they will have more scans. They will get rituximab and chemotherapy. They may get these drugs through a needle in an arm vein. Or they may them through a tube placed in a vein in their chest or in their neck. They might also keep taking the study drug. Each treatment cycle lasts 21 days. They will have up to 6 cycles. Participants may have 4 doses of another drug injected into their spinal fluid. Participants will have repeats of the screening tests throughout the study. Participants will have a follow-up visit 30 days after their last treatment, then every 3 months for 2 years, then every 6 months for 3 years, and then yearly. ... Read Less
