This study tested a combination of two drugs, acalabrutinib and pembrolizumab, in 161 people with various blood cancers such as lymphoma, leukemia, and multiple myeloma. The main goal was to check safety and side effects, while also seeing if the tumors shrank. The approach aims …

This early-phase trial tested a three-part treatment for non-Hodgkin lymphoma: freezing tumors (cryoablation), injecting a personalized dendritic cell vaccine made from the patient's own cells, and giving the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab (Keytruda). The goal was to find the s…

This study tested whether a new type of immune cell therapy, called CD22 CAR T cells, could be made from patients' own blood cells and safely given to adults with hard-to-treat B-cell leukemia or lymphoma. The main goals were to see if the cells could be produced successfully and…

This study tested a drug called glofitamab in 67 people with certain types of lymphoma (a blood cancer) that did not respond to or came back after CAR T-cell therapy. Participants received a pre-treatment followed by up to 11 cycles of glofitamab. The goal was to see if this anti…

This study tested a new drug called MK-7684A, which combines two immune-boosting medicines (pembrolizumab and vibostolimab), in 192 people with blood cancers like lymphoma and multiple myeloma that had returned or stopped responding to prior treatments. The main goals were to see…

This early-phase trial tested a new treatment called BZ019, made from a patient's own immune cells modified to attack cancer. It involved 12 adults with aggressive B-cell lymphomas that had not responded to standard therapy. The main goals were to check safety and see if the trea…

This phase 2 trial tested a combination of chemotherapy drugs (etoposide, doxorubicin, vincristine, cyclophosphamide) plus the targeted drug rituximab in 47 children and teens with primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma. The goal was to see how well the regimen prevented the c…

This early-phase study tested a new cell therapy called C-CAR039 in 3 adults with B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that had come back or stopped responding to treatment. The therapy uses a patient's own immune cells, modified to target two proteins (CD19 and CD20) on cancer cells. T…

This phase II trial tested whether combining the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab (Keytruda) with targeted radiation therapy could help patients whose non-Hodgkin lymphoma had returned or stopped responding to treatment. Seventeen adults with aggressive lymphoma types received bo…

This study tested a new radiation schedule (once a week for 5 weeks) in 10 people with B-cell lymphoma that came back or didn't respond to treatment. The goal was to see if this schedule is practical and reduces side effects before patients receive CAR T-cell therapy. The approac…

This study tested a new approach for adults with a tough-to-treat type of blood cancer called large B-cell lymphoma that had returned or not responded to prior treatment. Participants first received a stem cell transplant using their own cells, followed by infusions of two types …

This study tested the drug pembrolizumab (Keytruda) given every 6 weeks to 66 adults whose Hodgkin lymphoma or primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma had come back or not responded to prior treatment. The main goal was to see how many patients had their tumors shrink or disapp…

This study tested whether adding focused radiation to leftover cancer spots can improve outcomes for people with non-Hodgkin lymphoma whose tumors didn't fully respond to CAR-T cell therapy. Fourteen adults received radiation to those remaining areas. The goal was to see if this …

This early-phase trial tested a chemotherapy regimen called DA-EPOCH-R in 4 children with certain B-cell cancers (DLBCL, PMBCL, or PTLD). The drugs are given as a continuous infusion over several days, and doses are adjusted based on how the child's body handles them. The goal wa…

This study tested a chemotherapy drug called thiotepa, given via spinal injection, to prevent lymphoma from spreading to the brain or spinal cord in people with high-risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). 31 participants received the treatment and were followed for 2 years t…

This phase 2 trial tested whether adding the drug anakinra (Kineret) to standard CAR-T cell therapy could prevent nerve toxicity in 15 people with relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Participants received anakinra injections for a week alongside their CAR-T infusion. The…

This study looked at 170 patients with aggressive B-cell lymphoma who received CAR-T cell therapy. Researchers used surveys to track how patients felt about their fatigue, symptoms, and daily functioning over time. The goal was to understand the real-world impact of the treatment…

This study looked back at 633 people with primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL) treated in Italy between 2007 and 2019. Researchers collected data on how well treatments worked, how many patients had disease that didn't respond or came back early, and survival rates. …

This study followed 16 people who had already received a special immune cell treatment (CLBR001 CAR-T) for various types of B-cell blood cancers like lymphoma and leukemia. The goal was to check for any new or long-term side effects that might appear months or years after treatme…
