Treatment of B-Cell NHL Relapsing After Transplant With a Rituxan Vinorelbine Combination


OBJECTIVES:

- Determine the tolerability and toxicity of rituximab combined with vinorelbine in
patients with relapsed non-Hodgkin's lymphoma following autologous peripheral blood
stem cell transplantation.

- Assess the response rate and duration of response to this regimen in these patients.

OUTLINE: Patients receive rituximab IV weekly on weeks 1-4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 and vinorelbine
IV on weeks 2-4, 6-8, and 10-12. Patients who achieve partial response may continue on
vinorelbine from week 14 until disease progression.

Patients are followed until disease progression.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 18-25 patients will be accrued for this study.


Inclusion Criteria:



- Patients with B-cell Lymphoma, relapsing after high dose chemotherapy and autologous
stem cell transplantation or allogeneneic stem cell or bone marrow transplant

- Age > 18 years old

- Adequate hematologic function, as manifested by ANC > 1000/mm3 and platelet count >
40,000/mm3

- PS WHO: < 3

Exclusion Criteria:

- Patients with serum creatinine > 2 mg%, transaminases (ALT, AST) > 3 times upper
normal value, direct bilirubin > 2 mg%, unless they result from tumor involvement

- Pregnant or lactating females

- History of myelodysplastic syndrome

- Uncontrolled CNS disease

- Active serious infection

- History of refractoriness to vinorelbine. However, prior treatment with rituxan is
not an exclusion (synergy may still occur)

Type of Study:

Interventional
