Cyclophosphamide Treatment Options in Texas

This open-label, 2-arm, nonrandomized, multicenter, Phase Ib study will investigate the safety and efficacy of obinutuzumab (RO5072759; GA101) administered in combination with chemotherapy (bendamustine or fludarabine + cyclophosphamide \[FC\] regimens) in participants with previously untreated cluster of differentiation 20 (CD20)-positive B-CLL. Participants will be enrolled to receive a maximum of 6 cycles of obinutuzumab (1000 milligrams \[mg\] intravenous \[IV\] infusion, on Days 1, 8 and 15 of Cycle 1 and Day 1 of Cycles 2 - 6) plus bendamustine (90 milligrams per meter square \[mg/m\^2\] IV, on Days 2 and 3 of Cycle 1 and Days 1 and 2 of Cycles 2 - 6) on 28 day cycles or a maximum of 6 cycles of obinutuzumab (1000 mg IV infusion, on Days 1, 8 and 15 of Cycle 1 and Day 1 of Cycles 2 - 6) plus FC (fludarabine 25 mg/m\^2 IV on Days 2, 3 and 4 of Cycle 1 and Days 1, 2 and 3 of Cycles 2 - 6; cyclophosphamide 250 mg/m\^2 IV on Days 2, 3 and 4 of Cycle 1 and Days 1, 2 and 3 of Cycles 2 - 6) on 28 day cycles.

This pilot, phase II trial studies the side effects of giving bortezomib together with combination chemotherapy and to see how well it works in treating young patients with relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoblastic lymphoma. Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving bortezomib together with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells. Read Less

This is a randomized, open-label, multi-center, phase 2 study of RCHOP with or without VELCADE in adult patients with previously untreated non-(Germinal B-Cell-like) GCB Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL). The study will determine whether the addition of VELCADE to RCHOP improves progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with non-GCB DLBCL. Read Less

RATIONALE: Thalidomide may stop the growth of cancer cells by stopping blood flow to the cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with peripheral stem cell transplant may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more cancer cells. Giving thalidomide before and after peripheral stem cell transplant may be effective in treating newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving thalidomide with chemotherapy and peripheral stem cell transplant work in treating patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of standardized systemic therapy versus fluocinolone acetonide implant therapy for the treatment of severe cases of non-infectious intermediate uveitis, posterior uveitis, or panuveitis. Read Less

The investigators propose a randomized phase II study evaluating the pCR and toxicity profiles of combination eribulin/cyclophosphamide (ErC) and docetaxel /cyclophosphamide (TC) as neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced HER2-negative breast cancer. Read Less

The purpose of this research study is to find out what effects (good and bad) docetaxel/cyclophosphamide (brand names: Taxotere and Cytoxan, or TC) plus trastuzumab (brand name: Herceptin, or H) has HER2+ breast cancer. Read Less

The purpose of this research study is to find out what effects (good and bad) the combination of Nipent+Cytoxan+Rituxan has on CLL cancer compared to Fludara+Cytoxan+Rituxan. While all of these drugs are approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of other cancers, these combinations are experimental for the treatment of CLL. Read Less

The goal of this clinical research is to learn if RAD001 given in combination with chemotherapy will turn off the signaling pathway (a chain of information that tells cancer cells to grow quickly) and make the chemotherapies given on this study more effective. Primary Objective · To determine if the addition of an mTOR inhibitor to standard neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with triple receptor-negative breast cancer causes molecular changes (inhibition/activation) of the PI3K/PTEN/AKT pathway. Secondary Objectives * To evaluate pathologic complete response (pCR) rates for each treatment group. * To evaluate the relationship between pCR and the molecular changes (inhibition/activation) of the PI13K/PTEN/AKT pathway in each treatment group. * To evaluate overall response rates (ORR) for each treatment group. * To assess the toxicity of both regimens and to evaluate the relationship of toxicities with PI3K/PTEN/AKT pathway status. Read Less

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if cyclophosphamide given after busulfan and fludarabine can help to prevent graft versus host disease (GVHD - a condition in which transplanted tissue attacks the body into which it is transplanted) in patients receiving a stem cell transplant. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied. Read Less

This study will develop a national cord blood bank for siblings of patients with hemoglobinopathies and thalassemia. Read Less

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies such as rituximab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining chemotherapy and rituximab with peripheral stem cell transplantation in treating patients who have mantle cell lymphoma. Read Less
