Bortezomib and Vorinostat in Treating Patients With Recurrent Mantle Cell Lymphoma or Recurrent and/or Refractory Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma

Completed · Phase 2

Conditions studied: Recurrent Mantle Cell Lymphoma, Recurrent Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

In brief

This phase II trial studies how well bortezomib and vorinostat work in treating patients with recurrent mantle cell lymphoma or recurrent and/or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Bortezomib and vorinostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

You may qualify if…

Histologically confirmed mantle cell or diffuse large B-cell lymphoma; histological material must be available for central pathological review; unstained histological material -- slides or blocks -- must be available for correlative studies; archived material from previous biopsies is acceptable, unless a patient's lymphoma has been known to undergo histological transformation in the past, in which case a repeat biopsy to confirm histology prior to enrollment is required; availability of material must be confirmed at the time of registration, but material may be submitted subsequent to registration and initiation of study treatment
Measurable disease according to the Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma; this requires at least one lesion greater than 1.0 cm in diameter in both the long and short axis as measured by spiral computed tomography (CT) scan or physical exam
Prior allogeneic stem cell transplant is allowed provided that all of the following conditions are met:
>= 6 months have elapsed since allogeneic transplant
No graft vs. host disease (GVHD) is present
Not currently on immunosuppressive therapy
Prior therapy:
Mantle cell lymphoma:
Previously treated or untreated
No prior bortezomib
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma:
At least one prior systemic therapy
No prior bortezomib
Note: Not intended for patients in first relapse who are candidates for high dose therapy with stem cell support
Life expectancy of greater than 3 months
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0, 1, or 2
Able to tolerate loperamide or other anti-diarrheal medications
Absolute neutrophil count >= 1.5 x 10\^9/L
Platelets >= 75 x 10\^9/L
Total bilirubin =< 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (serum glutamic oxaloacetic transferase [SGOT])/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase [SGPT]) =< 2.5 x institutional upper limit of normal
Creatinine within normal institutional limits or calculated creatinine clearance >= 60 mL/min according to the Cockcroft-Gault formula
For patients with known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, a cluster of differentiation (CD)4 count >= 0.5 x 10\^9/L
For patients whose last treatment included bendamustine or fludarabine, a CD4 count >= 0.4 x 10\^9/L
Women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation and to report pregnancy or suspected pregnancy while participating in the study

You may not qualify if…

Chemotherapy or large field radiotherapy within 3 weeks prior to entering the study
Prior histone deacetylase inhibitor as cancer treatment
Concurrent treatment with other investigational agents
Plans for other concurrent cancer treatment; if steroids for cancer control have been used, patients must be off these agents for >= 1 week before starting treatment; exception: maintenance therapy for non-malignant disease with prednisone or steroid equivalent dose < 10 mg/day is permitted
History of brain metastasis including leptomeningeal metastasis
Grade >= 2 neuropathy, regardless of cause
Unable to take oral medications
History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to bortezomib or vorinostat
Not sufficiently recovered from previous treatment
Medical or other condition (for example: uncontrolled infection; potentially life threatening changes on electrocardiogram [EKG]) or concurrent treatment (for example, marrow suppressive agents such as zidovudine) that represents an inappropriate risk to the patient or likely would compromise achievement of the primary study objective; patients should be closely monitored when given bortezomib in combination with the cytochrome P450, family 3, subfamily A, polypeptide 4 (CYP3A4) inhibitors and inducers
Pregnant women are excluded from this study; breastfeeding should be discontinued
Active concurrent malignancy, except adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer
