This research study is being done in participants with advanced B-cell malignancies such as some types of lymphomas or leukemias. B-cell malignancies express a protein called the Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK), which has been shown to help the tumor cells grow and survive. The investigational drug, AC676, has been designed to recognize the BTK protein, and marks it for destruction. By destroying the BTK protein, the malignancy may be stopped from growing. "Investigational" means the study drug being tested is not approved by the FDA. This is an open-label study, meaning all patients who are eligible to participate will receive study drug. The key purposes of this study are to: ● Test the study drug at different dose levels (dose-escalation) and to determine the highest dose that can be taken without side effects that can't be tolerated (referred to as maximum tolerated dose or MTD). ● Determine what dose of
In this study, we want to determine if dietary intervention is feasible for patients being treated for leukemia or lymphoma.
Primary Objective: Demonstrate the superiority of belumosudil in combination with prednisone vs placebo in combination with prednisone in Event-Free Survival (EFS) Secondary Objective:Demonstrate the superiority of belumosudil in combination with prednisone vs placebo incombination with prednisone in modified Lee Symptom Scale (mLSS) improvement,overall ,response rate (ORR) and in the rate of corticosteroid withdrawal
The survey and its findings will help us understand attitudes around cancer family history and genetic testing among Black people. This information will be used to develop an educational curriculum to strive towards health equity for Black people diagnosed with or at higher risk of cancer and get Black people the best cancer care.
Cyclophosphamide is a chemotherapy (chemo) drug often given after a transplant to prevent GvHD. We are doing this study to see if a lower dose of cyclophosphamide after transplant is safer, but just as effective. Cyclophosphamide can prevent GvHD, but it can also make you sick and more likely to get an infection. This study will look at how well a lower dose of cyclophosphamide works to reduce these side effects, while also preventing GvHD. This study does not include any new or untested drugs. The drugs and procedures in this study are standard for transplant.
This study will evaluate the feasibility of using capillary blood samples collected with the Tasso device for analysis of CBC in diseased patients with leukemia, lymphoma, and/or other blood cell disorders.
In this study, we want to find out if an investigational treatment, P-CD19CD20-ALLO1, is safe and will help treat people with some B-cell malignancies. The study is also being done to determine what dose is tolerated and whether it is effective in treating some B cell malignancies.
We are seeking volunteers for a survey to learn what may encourage and discourage cancer patients to be in cancer research studies. We'd like to hear from you if you are: -18 years+ -Have been diagnosed with cancer or the caregiver of someone diagnosed with cancer. -Spend time in Bertie, Hertford, Robeson or Scotland County, NC or a neighboring county. Participation includes 1 survey (about 10 minutes long) that can be done with your mobile device, computer, or by phone with the researcher. Compensation: 1 in 10 participants will receive a $25 Visa gift card.
Are you a young adult cancer survivor who would like to improve your health? Interested in using technology to support a healthy diet, get more physically active, and make healthy lifestyle changes? Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill are looking for volunteers to sign up for a 3-month research program using a Fitbit activity tracker and mobile app to improve your physical activity and dietary habits.
Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is the name for types of lymphoma that sometimes develop in people who have had a transplant. It can affect people who are taking medicines to suppress their immune system. This study is being done to study whether treating PTLD with a combination of the drugs tafasitamab and rituximab is more effective than rituximab alone - the current standard of care treatment for this disease.
