Phase I, Multicenter, Open Label, Dose Escalation Of 90Y-Zevalin Radioimmunotherapy Using A Modified Treatment Regimen For Relapsed Or Refractory CD20+ B-Cell (Follicular/Transformed) Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma


OBJECTIVES:

- Determine the maximum tolerated dose of yttrium Y 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan when
administered in combination with rituximab in patients with relapsed or refractory
low-grade, follicular, or transformed CD20-positive B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma
(NHL).

- Determine the toxicity of different doses of yttrium Y 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan in
patients treated with this regimen.

- Determine the frequency of reversal of bone marrow involvement with NHL in patients
treated with this regimen.

- Determine the antitumor response in patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter, dose-escalation study of yttrium Y 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan.

Patients receive rituximab IV once weekly on weeks 1-4. After 4 doses of rituximab, patients
without bone marrow involvement and cellularity greater than 50% expected receive rituximab
IV once weekly on weeks 6 and 7 and yttrium Y 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan IV over 10 minutes
with the final dose of rituximab (day 43).

Cohorts of 5-6 patients receive escalating dose of yttrium Y 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan until
the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding
that at which 4 of 5 or 3 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity.

Patients are followed at 6 and 12 weeks, every 2-3 months for 2 years, and then every 6
months for 2 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 6-30 patients will be accrued for this study.

Inclusion Criteria


DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:

- Histologically confirmed low-grade, follicular, or transformed CD20-positive B-cell
non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL)

- Relapsed after prior chemotherapy OR chemotherapy-resistant disease

- Failed at least 1 prior chemotherapy regimen

- CD20-positive B-cell population in lymph nodes or bone marrow for International
Working Formulation A (small lymphocytic lymphoma) and transformed NHL

- Bone marrow involvement with lymphoma less than 25% bilaterally

- No impaired bone marrow reserve defined as at least 1 of the following criteria:

- Prior myeloablative therapies with bone marrow transplantation or peripheral
blood stem cell rescue

- Platelet count less than 100,000/mm3

- Bone marrow cellularity no greater than 15%

- Marked reduction in bone marrow precursors of one or more cell lines (e.g.,
granulocytic, megakaryocytic, or erythroid)

- Failed prior stem cell collection

- No CNS lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic lymphoma, or HIV or AIDS-related lymphoma

- No diffuse small lymphocytic/marginal zone lymphoma with lymphocyte count greater
than 5,000/mm^3

- No pleural effusion NOTE: A new classification scheme for adult non-Hodgkin's
lymphoma has been adopted by PDQ. The terminology of "indolent" or "aggressive"
lymphoma will replace the former terminology of "low", "intermediate", or "high"
grade lymphoma. However, this protocol uses the former terminology.
