Brief Summary
AEG35156 has shown early evidence of activity in patients with advanced indolent B-cell lymphomas in Phase 1 trials and merits further evaluation in this disease. This trial is designed to determine t...
Detailed Description
Apoptotic induction in cancer cells is a sought after therapeutic goal. Most successful anticancer agents activate apoptosis pathways in the cancers they treat. Apoptotic pathways in cells appear to c...

- Acceptable renal function: (Serum creatinine within normal limits, OR calculated creatinine clearance greater or equal than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 for patients with creatinine levels above institutional normal)
- Acceptable hematologic status: (Granulocyte greater or equal than 1000 cells/uL; Platelet count greater or equal than 50,000 /uL)
- Acceptable coagulation status:(PT within normal limits; PTT within normal limits)
- For women of child-producing potential, the use of effective contraceptive methods during the study
- Prior radiotherapy for local disease is allowed provided disease progression has been documented, and treatment completed at least 4 weeks prior to registration
Exclusion
- Uncontrolled autoimmune hemolysis and/or thrombocytopenia
- Richter's transformation
- Histologic transformation
- Patients with peripheral neuropathy
- Active progressive leptomeningeal disease including the presence of any related symptoms or need for corticosteroids. A CT or MRI scan of the head is necessary in patients with a history of leptomeningeal disease to document the stability of prior lesions
- Pregnant or nursing women. NOTE: Women of child-bearing potential must agree to use adequate contraception (sterile or surgically sterile; hormonal or barrier method of birth control; or abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately
- Men who are unwilling to use acceptable forms of birth control when engaging in sexual contact with women of child bearing potential
- Active, uncontrolled bacterial, viral, or fungal infections, requiring systemic therapy
- Known infection with HIV, hepatitis B, or hepatitis C
- Serious nonmalignant disease that could compromise protocol objectives in the opinion of the investigator and/or the sponsor
- Patients who are currently receiving any other investigational agent. Subjects who have used a previous antisense oligonucleotide in the last 90 days will be excluded
