Radioimmunotherapy + Chemotherapy Before Stem Cell Transplant for T-Cell Lymphoma
Trial Summary
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial uses a radioactive drug and chemotherapy to treat patients with T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The treatment aims to kill cancer cells and prepare the body for a stem cell transplant. Radioimmunotherapy has shown good results in earlier studies for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, even in patients that do not respond to standard chemotherapy.
