Brief Summary

Panobinostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. This phase II trial is studying how well panobinostat works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate the proportion of confirmed response of LBH589 in patients with relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To describe the toxicities associated with LBH589 in patients with NHL. II. To evaluate overall survival, progression-free survival, and duration of response in patients treated with LBH589. TERTIARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of LBH589. II. To assess the correlation between clinical (toxicity and/or tumor response or activity) effects with the pharmacologic (pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic) parameters, and/or biologic (correlative laboratory) results. OUTLINE: Patients receive oral panobinostat 3 times weekly. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 12 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 6 months for up to 2 years.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

• Biopsy-proven relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma requiring treatment, who have failed, unable to tolerate, or refused other available active therapies; patients should not have other treatment options considered curative (NOTE: for patients with lymphoma without CNS involvement, a re-biopsy is necessary unless the patient has had a previous biopsy =< 6 months prior to treatment on this protocol if there has been no intervening treatment; patients with biopsy-proven CNS lymphoma at any time are not required to have a rebiopsy to be eligible for this study); NOTE: relapsed NHL is defined as NHL that relapses after at least one prior therapy and does not have available curative therapy; refractory NHL is defined as NHL that has progressed or not responded to most recent therapy and has had at least one prior therapy and have no available curative therapies
• Measurable disease by CT or MRI or the CT portion of the PET/CT: must have at least one lesion that has a single diameter of >= 2 cm or tumor cells in the blood >= 5 x 10^9/L; skin lesions can be used if the area is >= 2 cm in at least one diameter and photographed with a ruler
• The following disease types are eligible: transformed lymphomas: diffuse large B cell lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma grade III; precursor B lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma; mediastinal (thymic) large B-cell lymphoma; Burkitt lymphoma/leukemia; precursor T-lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma; primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma; anaplastic large cell lymphoma - primary systemic type; small lymphocytic lymphoma/chronic lymphocytic leukemia; follicular lymphoma, grades 1, 2; extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of MALT type; nodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma; splenic marginal zone B-cell lymphoma; peripheral T cell lymphoma, unspecified; anaplastic large cell lymphoma (T and null cell type); lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia); CNS lymphoma; post transplant lymphoproliferative disorders; mycosis fungoides/Sezary syndrome; primary effusion lymphoma; blastic NK-cell lymphoma; adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma; extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type; enteropathy-type T-cell lymphoma; hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma; subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma; angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma; anaplastic large cell lymphoma - primary cutaneous type
• For lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma patients without measurable lymphadenopathy, measurable disease can be defined by both of the following criteria: bone marrow lymphoplasmacytosis with > 10% lymphoplasmacytic cells or aggregates, sheets, lymphocytes, plasma cells, or lymphoplasmacytic cells on bone marrow biopsy and quantitative IgM monoclonal protein > 1,000 mg/dL
• ANC >= 1000/uL
• Hgb >= 9 g/dl
• PLT >= 75,000/uL
• Total bilirubin =< 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) or if total bilirubin is > 1.5 x ULN the direct bilirubin must be normal
• AST =< 3 x ULN
• Albumin > 3.0 g/dl
• Creatinine =< 2.5 x ULN

• Using medications that have a relative risk of prolonging the QT interval or inducing torsade de pointes if treatment cannot be discontinued or switched to a different medication prior to starting study drug
• Active bleeding tendency. NOTE: Patients on therapeutic anticoagulation should be monitored carefully to maintain therapeutic level of anticoagulation to avoid increased risk of bleeding due to concurrent drug induced thrombocytopenia. It is suggested that patients who require anticoagulation therapy while on therapy use low molecular weight heparin (LMWH).
• Major surgery =< 4 weeks prior to registration or have not recovered from side effects of such therapy
• History of other prior malignancies except for properly treated basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of skin, in situ cervical cancer, in situ breast cancer or early stage prostate cancer
