Summary

This phase II trial is studying how well vorinostat works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vorinostat, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Vorinostat may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate the anti-tumor activity of SAHA (vorinostat) as assessed by the objective response rate, time to progression and survival in subjects with advanced lymphoma. II. To assess the toxicity profile of SAHA in this patient population. III. To perform correlative laboratory investigations to confirm modulation of chromatin acetylation as the biologic target and attempt to gain insight into the downstream molecular mechanisms involved in the induction of apoptosis mediated by SAHA. OUTLINE: Patients receive vorinostat orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-14. Treatment repeats every 21 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 3 months for 1 year and then every 6 months for 2 years.
