Radiolabeled Monoclonal Antibody in Treating Patients With Previously Treated Large Cell Lymphoma

Completed · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Lymphoma

In brief

RATIONALE: Radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies can locate tumor cells and deliver tumor-killing substances such as radioactive iodine to them without harming normal cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies in treating patients who have large cell lymphoma that has been previously treated.

Who can join

Age: 18 and older. Sex: any. Healthy volunteers: not accepted.

You may qualify if…

• Histologic diagnosis of B-cell diffuse large cell lymphoma (REAL classification system) confirmed by an independent central pathology reviewer.
• The tumor's B-cell phenotype will be confirmed by positive L-26 (CD20).
• Previous treatment with 2 common combination chemotherapy regimens. Patients previously treated with unlabeled monoclonal antibody therapy are eligible.
• Men or women at least 18 years of age.
• Karnofsky Performance Score (KPS) estimated to be > 60 at the time of the scheduled therapeutic dose of 131I-Lym-1.
• Life expectancy estimated to be at least 3 months from the time of the therapeutic dose of 131I Lym-1.
• Measurable disease demonstrable by physical examination or computerized tomography (CT).
• CT scan evidence of at least one indicator lesion with at least one diameter that measures > 2 cm. (The CT scan should be done within 2 weeks of the imaging study.)

You may not qualify if…

• Inability or unwillingness to comply with the following:
• Bone marrow biopsy
• Return for follow-up visits
• Remaining motionless for extended periods of time for imaging procedures
• Serial blood/urine sampling (for dosimetry patients only)
• Pregnancy (Women of childbearing potential must be practicing an effective method of contraception.)
• Presence of a second malignancy except for basal cell skin carcinoma or carcinoma in-situ of the cervix
• Presence of active lymphomatous meningitis or other CNS involvement with lymphoma.
• HIV positive patients.
• Prior total body irradiation, or a course of prior radiation > 3,000 cGy delivered to > 20% of the central marrow or the lumbar vertebrae within 6 months of screening.
• Serum creatinine or total bilirubin > 2 x the upper limit of normal.
• Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or alkaline phosphatase > 3 x the upper limit of normal.
• Significant marrow lymphoma (defined as lymphoma cells constituting greater than 20% of the hematopoietic marrow elements from an iliac crest biopsy). A prior bone marrow biopsy is acceptable if it meets the following criteria:
• If there is prior bone marrow involvement, the biopsy must be performed within 45 days of screening.
• If there is no prior bone marrow involvement, the biopsy must be performed within 90 days of screening
• WBC count < 3,500/mm3, granulocyte count < 1,500/mm3, or platelet count < 125,000/mm3.
• Positive human anti-mouse antibodies (HAMA) serum values, defined as > 74 ng/mL at screening.
• Patients who have not recovered from toxicities of most recent anti-lymphoma therapy.
• Treatment with:
• Colony stimulating factor G-CSF or GM-CSF within 120 hours of screening laboratory assessment.
• Erythropoietin (EPO) within a month of screening laboratory assessment
• Whole blood or platelet transfusion within 120 hours of screening laboratory assessment
• History or electrocardiographic (ECG) evidence of Q-wave myocardial infarction within 6 months of screening or congestive heart failure (CHF; NYHA Stage III or IV).
• Known hypersensitivity to iodine or iodine-containing organic substances.
• Patients who require therapy with anticoagulants or antiplatelet drugs which cannot be discontinued during the study.
