Trial Information

A Phase I/II Study of the Histone Deacetylase (HDAC) Inhibitor LBH589 (Panobinostat) in Combination With mTOR Inhibitor RAD001 (Everolimus) in Patients With Relapsed Multiple Myeloma or Lymphoma


PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the maximum tolerated doses (MTD) of LBH589 and RAD001 when used in
combination in patients with myeloma or lymphoma (Phase I).

II. Arm A: To evaluate the therapeutic activity of the combination of LBH589 with RAD001 in
patients with relapsed or refractory lymphoma. (Phase II)

III. Arm B: To evaluate the therapeutic activity of the combination of LBH589 with RAD001 in
patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (Phase II)

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To further describe the toxicities associated with the combination of LBH589 with RAD001
in each arm independently.

II. To evaluate overall survival, progression-free survival, and duration of response in
each arm independently.

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate the pharmacokinetic interaction of LBH589 and RAD001.

II. To assess the correlation between clinical (toxicity and/or tumor response or activity)
effects with the pharmacologic (pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic) parameters, and/or biologic
(correlative laboratory) results.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive oral panobinostat and oral everolimus once daily. Courses repeat every 28
days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After completion of
study, patients are followed periodically for 2 years.

electrophoresis; serum immunoglobulin free light chain >= 10 mg/dL and abnormal serum
immunoglobulin kappa to lambda free light chain ratio; OR monoclonal bone marrow

Exclusion

- Known positivity for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or hepatitis C with
uncontrolled disease (baseline testing for HIV and hepatitis C is not required)

- Candidate for potentially curative standard therapy

- Uncontrolled infection

- Therapy with myelosuppressive chemotherapy or biologic therapy <3 weeks unless the
patient has recovered from the nadir (lowest value of blood counts after
chemotherapy) of the previous treatment to a level that meets the inclusion
eligibility criteria of this protocol. NOTE: (patients who have received prior RAD001
therapy will be allowed but must meet above requirements)

- Receiving corticosteroids > 20 mg of prednisone per day (or equivalent)NOTE: Patients
may be receiving stable (not increased within the last month) chronic doses of
corticosteroids with a maximum dose of 20 mg of prednisone per day if they are being
given for disorders other than lymphoma (with the exception of CNS lymphoma, which
steroids are permitted at the lowest possible dose necessary and should not be
escalated during treatment) such as rheumatoid arthritis, polymyalgia rheumatica or
adrenal insufficiency or asthma.

- Persistent toxicities >= grade 2 from prior chemotherapy or biological therapy
regardless of interval since last treatment

- Patients with congenital long QT syndrome

the context of a research investigation). NOTE: Patients may undergo palliative
concurrent radiation of myeloma lesions for pain control or impending fracture,
provided the lesion(s) by themselves do not constitute progression.

- Active other malignancy requiring treatment that would interfere with the assessments
of response of the lymphoma or myeloma to protocol treatment - Inability to
swallow or impairment of gastrointestinal function or gastrointestinal disease that
may significantly alter the absorption of the drugs (e.g., ulcerative disease,
uncontrolled nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, malabsorption syndrome or small bowel

ischemic attacks within the past 6 months

temsirolimus)

- Concomitant use of CYP3A4 inhibitors

- Using medications that have a relative risk of prolonging the QT interval or inducing
torsades de pointes if treatment cannot be discontinued or switched to a different
medication prior to starting study drug

- Active bleeding tendency. NOTE: Patients on therapeutic anticoagulatin should be
monitored carefully to maintain therapeutic level of anticoagulation to avoid
increased risk of bleeding due to concurrent drug induced thrombocytopenia. It is
suggested that patients who require anticoagulation therapy while on therapy use low
molecular weight heparin (LMWH).

effects of such therapy
