The purpose of this study is to determine how well nivolumab with or without varlilumab works in treating patients with aggressive B-cell lymphomas that have come back or do not respond to treatment. Monoclonal antibodies, such as varlilumab and nivolumab, may work by stimulating the immune system to attack cancer tumor cells.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of daratumumab plus cyclophosphamide, bortezomib and dexamethasone (CyBorD) compared with CyBorD alone in treatment of newly diagnosed amyloid light chain (AL) amyloidosis participants.

The purpose of this study is to establish a dosing regimen for the combination therapy of AFM13 and pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) and to assess the safety and tolerability of this combination therapy.

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving rituximab and bortezomib together with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving rituximab and cyclophosphamide together with bortezomib and dexamethasone works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory low-grade follicular lymphoma, Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia, or mantle cell lymphoma.

This is a multi-center, international, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-arm efficacy and safety study in subjects newly diagnosed with AL amyloidosis. Subjects will remain on-study until study completion, which will occur when all primary endpoint events (all-cause mortality or cardiac hospitalizations) have been reached.

RATIONALE: Everolimus may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Lenalidomide may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Giving everolimus together with lenalidomide may be an effective treatment for lymphoma.

PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of giving everolimus and lenalidomide together and to see how well they work in treating patients with relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin or Hodgkin lymphoma.

Patients with previously treated multiple myeloma and kidney dysfunction will be treated with lenalidomide and low-dose dexamethasone. Phase I will study the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide when given together with low-dose dexamethasone therapy. After the maximum safe and tolerated dose is found in Phase I, the study will proceed to Phase II. Phase II will study how well the the treatment works in patients with previously treated (relapsed or refractory) multiple myeloma and kidney dysfunction.

Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving lenalidomide together with dexamethasone may kill more cancer cells. Lenalidomide and dexamethasone may have different effects in patients who have changes in their kidney function.

This is a open-label, mutlicenter, non-randomized, study to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of idasanutlin in combination with obinutuzumab in participants with R/R FL and rituximab in combination with idasanutlin in R/R DLBCL. The study will include an initial dose-escalation phase followed by an expansion phase. The dose-escalation phase is designed to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) for idasanutlin in combination with obinutuzumab for FL and in combination with rituximab for DLBCL. The expansion phase is designed to further assess the safety and efficacy of obinutuzumab in combination with idasanutlin at the RP2D with the selected regimen in participants with R/R FL and of rituximab in combination with idasanutlin at the RP2D in participants with R/R DLBCL.

Panobinostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. This phase II trial is studying how well panobinostat works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of CTL019 in adult patients with relapsed or resistant diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

The purpose of the study is to compare once-weekly carfilzomib dosing in combination with dexamethasone to twice-weekly carfilzomib dosing in combination with dexamethasone in subjects with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma, previously treated with bortezomib and an immunomodulatory agent (IMiD).

The purpose of this study is to assess the clinical benefit of Nivolumab, as measured by independent radiologic review committee (IRRC)-assessed objective response rate (ORR) in subjects with FL lymphoma who have failed therapy with both CD20 antibody and an alkylating agent.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Nivolumab is effective in the treatment of DLBCL in patients that have failed or are ineligible for ASCT

The purpose of this study is to characterize the natural history of leukocyte chemotactic factor 2 amyloidotic (ALECT2) disease. In this observational study, participants with ALECT2 disease will be enrolled. Participants who have already reached end-stage renal disease (ESRD) will provide retrospective chart review data and biological specimens at baseline only. Other participants, in addition to retrospective chart review, will be followed prospectively.

This study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy and clinical benefit of BGB-3111 vs ibrutinib in subjects with MYD88 Mutation Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia.

Single arm, open-label study to provide Defibrotide to patients diagnosed with VOD. Defibrotide is no longer available though the Emergency Use IND mechanism (also known as compassionate use, or single patient named use). This protocol is the only mechanism by which Defibrotide can be made available to patients in the U.S.

This phase I clinical trial aims to elucidate the maximal tolerated dose and side effects of pomalidomide in patients with relapsed or refractory primary central nervous system lymphoma or newly diagnosed or relapsed or refractory vitreoretinal lymphoma (Intraocular lymphoma). The study will also determine the efficacy and survival related to pomalidomide therapy in a MTD expanded cohort.

Rationale - Pomalidomide is a novel immunomodulatory agent, which has shown significant activity against CNS lymphoma in preclinical studies. Blood brain barrier is an obstacle in treatment of brain tumors such as CNS lymphoma. Pomalidomide was shown to have an excellent CNS penetration in a murine model: approximately 39% of systemically administered pomalidomide could penetrate the central nervous system. As such, pomalidomide is a promising immunomodulator to be tested in a clinical trial for CNS lymphoma. It works by killing the lymphoma cells directly as well as indirectly via activation of the immune response against lymphoma cells.
