Inotuzumab Ozogamicin Post-Transplant
for Leukemia and Lymphoma
This study has two phases, Phase I and Phase II. The main goal of the Phase I portion of this research study is to see what doses post-transplant inotuzumab ozogamicin can safely be given to subjects without having too many side effects. The Phase II portion of this study is to see what side effects are seen with medication after transplant. Inotuzumab ozogamicin is a combination of an antibody and chemotherapy which has been shown to have significant activity against relapsed/refractory acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL).

Phase 1 & 2
CAR T-cell Therapy
for Lymphoma and Leukemia
This trial tests the safety and best dose of a new treatment using modified immune cells (CAR T-cells) for patients with certain recurring or hard-to-treat lymphoid cancers. The treatment involves giving patients a brief period of chemotherapy followed by an infusion of these specially designed cells to target and kill cancer cells. Anti-CD19 CAR T-cells currently represent transformational therapy for relapsed/refractory aggressive B-cell lymphomas where durable remissions can be induced in patients with previously incurable chemotherapy-refractory disease.
