Clinical Trials Farhad Ravandi-Kashani is currently running
Combination Chemotherapy + Nelarabine
for Leukemia and Lymphoma
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well combination chemotherapy and nelarabine work in treating patients with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoblastic lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin, dexamethasone, methotrexate, cytarabine, mercaptopurine, prednisone, pegaspargase, nelarabine, and venetoclax work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.

for Hairy Cell Leukemia
This trial studies how well two drugs, cladribine and rituximab, work together in treating patients with hairy cell leukemia. Cladribine helps stop cancer cells from growing, while rituximab helps the immune system attack cancer cells. The combination aims to be more effective in treating this type of leukemia.
