Ruxolitinib Phosphate to Treat Diffuse Large B-Cell or Peripheral T-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma After Stem Cell Transplant

Refractory Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma Clinical Trial

Official title: A Phase 2 Multicenter, Investigator Initiated Study of Oral Ruxolitinib Phosphate for the Treatment of Relapsed or Refractory Diffuse Large B-Cell and Peripheral T-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This phase II trial studies how well ruxolitinib phosphate works in treating patients with diffuse large B-cell or peripheral T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has returned (relapsed) or that does not respond to treatment (refractory) after donor stem cell transplant. Ruxolitinib phosphate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Clinical Trial Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Assess the overall response rate (ORR) of subjects with relapsed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) who are relapsed or refractory to front-line treatment and ineligible for stem cell transplantation or have recurrent disease after stem cell transplantation to oral ruxolitinib (ruxolitinib phosphate). SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate safety of oral ruxolitinib in subjects with DLBCL and PTCL. II. Determine progression-free survival (PFS), duration of response, and overall response (OS) in subjects with DLBCL and PTCL. TERTIARY OBJECTIVES: I. Explore the relationship between responses to oral ruxolitinib and alterations in gene expression profiling (GEP) signatures as well as biomarker immunophenotypic changes related to JAK2/STAT3, NF-kB, PI3K/AKT, and mTOR pathways. II. Evaluate potential effect of oral ruxolitinib exposure on JAK2/STAT3 pathway inhibition in serial tumor samples. OUTLINE: Patients receive ruxolitinib phosphate orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days 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 thereafter. ;
