| Brief Title : Vorinostat in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Advanced Hodgkin's Lymphoma |
| Official Title : A Phase II Trial of Suberoylanilide Hydroxamic Acid for Recurrent or Primary Refractory Hodgkin's Lymphoma |
| Brief Summary : RATIONALE: Vorinostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well vorinostat works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory advanced Hodgkin's lymphoma. |
| Source : National Cancer Institute (NCI) |
| Detailed Description : OBJECTIVES: Primary - Determine the response rates (complete, complete unconfirmed, and partial) in patients with relapsed or primary refractory advanced Hodgkin's lymphoma treated with vorinostat (SAHA). Secondary - Determine the 1-year progression-free survival and overall survival of patients treated with this drug. - Determine the toxicity profile of this drug in these patients. - Correlate gene expression profiling of tumor tissue with response in these patients. OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients receive oral vorinostat twice daily on days 1-14. Treatment repeats every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients achieving a complete response (CR) receive 2 additional courses of therapy beyond CR. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 6 months for 2 years and then annually for 3 years. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 20-35 patients will be accrued for this study within 10-18 months. |
