Aza-SAHA-GBM With AutoSCT for Refractory Lymphoma

Completed · Phase 1/Phase 2

Conditions studied: Advanced Cancers, Lymphoma

In brief

The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of azacitidine that can be given with vorinostat, gemcitabine, busulfan, and melphalan, with a stem cell transplant, and with or without rituximab. Researchers also want to learn about the safety and level of effectiveness of this combination.
