PHASE2
Brief Summary
This phase II trial is studying how well sorafenib works in treating patients with recurrent diffuse large B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Sorafenib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some...
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate the response rate of treatment with sorafenib (BAY43-9006) in patients with recurrent aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate the...
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Patients must have histologically confirmed recurrent de novo or transformed diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) or one of its variants according to WHO classification (centroblastic, immunoblastic, T-cell/histiocyte rich and anaplastic variants)
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status must be 0 or 1
- Patients must have measurable disease as defined in section 6 assessed within 4 weeks of registration
- Patients must have failed one or more prior Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) chemotherapy or antibody therapy with curative intent; autologous stem cell transplant is permitted
- Leukocytes \>= 2,000/mm\^3
- Absolute neutrophil count \>= 1,000/mm\^3
- Platelets \>= 75,000/ mm\^3
- Total bilirubin =\< 2.0 X normal institutional limits
- Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) =\< 2.5 X institutional upper limit of normal
- Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) =\< 2.5 X institutional upper limit of normal
- Creatinine within normal institutional limits; creatinine clearance calculated or measured at \>= 60 ml/min/1.73m\^2 if creatinine level is above institutional limits
- The prothrombin time (PT)/international normalized ratio (INR) within Institutional limits of normal
- Patients with underlying hypertension as defined by blood pressures averaging greater than 140/90 on two separate clinic visits are eligible if hypertension has been controlled by standard nonpharmacologic and pharmacologic therapy
- Patients must be physically able to orally ingest tablets
Exclusion
- Central nervous system (CNS) involvement
- Previously treated with Sorafenib (BAY 43-9006) or other small molecule targeted inhibitors of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling intermediates or angiogenesis (e.g. bevacizumab)
- Progressed within 60 days of last therapy
- Prior allogeneic stem cell transplant
- Candidates for potentially curative therapy, such as hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT)
- Currently receiving any other investigational agents
- History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to sorafenib
- Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to: ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
- Active HIV infection, because of possible pharmacokinetic interactions of anti-retroviral therapy with BAY43-9006
- Evidence of bleeding diathesis
- Currently taking the cytochrome P450 enzyme-inducing anti-epileptic drugs (phenytoin, carbamazepine and phenobarbital), rifampin or St. John's Wort
- Pregnant or Breast-feeding; all females of childbearing potential must have a blood test or urine study within 2 weeks prior to registration to rule out pregnancy. Women of childbearing potential and sexually active males must be strongly advised to use an accepted and effective method of contraception
