1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (FDG-PET, direct tumor microinjection)Experimental Treatment15 Interventions
Patients undergo FDG-PET and receive saline intralesionally on day 1. Patients also receive up to five additional injections of gemcitabine hydrochloride, romidepsin, belinostat, carfilzomib, copanlisib hydrochloride, nivolumab, trastuzumab, daratumumab, obinutuzumab, pembrolizumab, or rituximab intralesionally per investigator on day 1. Beginning 5 days later, patients with nodal/extranodal mass undergo restaging FDG-PET and biopsy (if clinically feasible). Within 3-7 days, patients with cutaneous disease undergo restaging photography and biopsy.
