Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of combining bortezomib (Velcade) with rituximab, fludarabine, mitoxantrone, and dexamethasone in treating patients with follicular cell lymphoma.

Detailed Description

This is a phase II study using the combination of bortezomib, rituximab, fludarabine, mitoxantrone and dexamethasone. The combination will given over a 28 day cycle. In addition each patient will receive Pneumocystis carinii Pneumonia (PCP) prophylaxis with Trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (TMP/Sulfa) or equivalent agent. On day 4 the physician has the option of starting granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF), granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GMCSF), or pegylated GCSF.

All patients who receive at least one dose of the drug will be evaluated for toxicity. Patients will be treated with the agent for at least 2 cycles to be considered eligible for evaluation of response. The chemotherapy dosing will continue until there is evidence of disease progression, a second recurrence of unacceptable toxicity, or a maximum of 8 courses of therapy.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Complete and Partial Response [1 year]

      Complete Response: Complete disappearance of all detectable clinical and radiographic evidence of disease, disappearance of all disease-related symptoms and normalization of biochemical abnormalities (eg. LDH) definitely assignable to follicular lymphoma. Partial Response requires the following: greater than or equal to 50% decrease in the SPD of the 6 largest dominant nodes of nodal masses. No increase in size of other nodes, liver, or spleen. Splenic and hepatic nodes must regress by at least 50% in sum of the products (SPD). Bone marrow assessment in irrelevant for determination of Partial Response since it is not measurable disease; however, if positive the type of cell should be reported. No new lesions.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Duration of Response [up to 4 years]

      Duration of response is measured from time of treatment to time of disease progression

    2. Percentage of Subjects Experiencing Progression Free Survival [up to 2 years]

      Progression free survival is measured from treatment to progression or death, whichever comes first. Progressive disease is measured as: 50% or greater increase from nadir in the sum of the products (SPD) of any previously identified abnormal node and the appearance of any new lesions during or at the end of treatment.

    3. Percentage of Subjects Experiencing Overall Survival [up to 2 years]

      Overall survival is from the day of enrollment to date of death from any cause.

    4. Number of Participants With a Grade 3-4 Hematologic Toxicity. [up to 1 year]

      Before each drug dose, the patient will be evaluated for possible toxicities that may have occurred after the previous dose(s). Toxicities are to be assessed according to the NCI Common Toxicity Criteria (CTC).

    5. Number of Participants With Neuropathy, Any Grade [up to 1 year]

      Before each drug dose, the patient will be evaluated for possible toxicities that may have occurred after the previous dose(s). Toxicities are to be assessed according to the NCI Common Toxicity Criteria (CTC).
