Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
I. Establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of olaparib combined with vorinostat/gemcitabine/busulfan/melphalan with autologous stem-cell transplant \[ASCT\]).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine the 2-year event-free survival (EFS). II. 2-year overall survival (OS). III. Complete remission (CR) rate. IV. Overall remission rate (ORR). V. Describe the toxicity profile. VI. Describe changes of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage response and repair, poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibition and downstream cellular effects in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and, when available, malignant lymphocytes obtained by fine needle aspiration (FNA) of peripheral lymph nodes.
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of olaparib.
Patients receive olaparib orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days -11 to -3, vorinostat PO on days -10 to -3, gemcitabine intravenously (IV) over 4.5 hours on days -9 and -4, busulfan IV over 3 hours on day -9 to -6, melphalan IV over 30 minutes on days -4 and -3, and undergo peripheral blood stem cell transplant IV over 30-60 minutes on day 0. Patients with CD20+ tumors also receive rituximab IV over 3-6 hours on day -10.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 1-2 days for 30 days and then every 2 weeks for up to 100 days.

3. Adequate renal function (creatinine clearance estimated using the Cockcroft-Gault equation of \>/= 51 mL/min: Estimated creatinine clearance = (140-age \[years\]) x weight (kg) (xF)a / serum creatinine (mg/dL) x 72 \[a where F=0.85 for females and F=1 for males.\]
4. Adequate hepatic function (Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase (SGOT)) / Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (Serum Glutamic Pyruvate Transaminase (SGPT)) \</= 3.5 x institutional upper limit of normal unless liver metastases or a systemic inflammatory picture secondary to the lymphoma are present in which case they must be \</= 6x ULN; total bilirubin \</= 2.5 x ULN or \</= 3.5 x ULN if Gilbert's disease)
5. Prothrombin time (PT) \</=1.5 x institutional upper limit of normal
6. Adequate pulmonary function (FEV1, FVC and DLCOc \>/= 50% of predicted)
7. Adequate cardiac function (LVEF \>/= 40%, no uncontrolled arrhythmias or symptomatic cardiac disease
8. ECOG performance status \<2
