  Purpose

Monoclonal antibodies such as rituximab and yttrium Y 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver radioactive cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Motexafin gadolinium may increase the effectiveness of yttrium Y 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan by making the cancer cells more sensitive to the drug.

This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of motexafin gadolinium when administered with rituximab and yttrium Y 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan and to see how well they work in treating patients with stage II, stage III, or stage IV relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Official Title: A Phase I/II Trial of Redox Regulation in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory CD20 Positive Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL): Combining 90-Yttrium- Zevalin and the Redox- Modulating Agent, Motexafin Gadolinium (MGd)

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Maximum tolerated dose [ Time Frame: On each treatment day (2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11) and Day 7 evaluation ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
    To determine the maximally tolerated dose and dose-limiting toxicity of MGd in combination with Rituxan, 111Indium-Zevalin, and 90Yttrium- Zevalin using a modified Fibonacci phase I study design (with patient allocation based on amount of lymphoma bone marrow involvement


Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Anti-lymphoma efficacy [ Time Frame: At 1, 3 and 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    To assess the anti-lymphoma efficacy of the combination of MGd and 90Yttrium-Zevalin therapy.

  • Study location of tumor through MRIs [ Time Frame: At 1,3 and 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    To study the tumor-specific bio-localization of MGd in lymphoma through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in a subset of patients

  • Correlative laboratory studies [ Time Frame: On Day 1 and 4 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    To explore correlative laboratory studies of MGd (ie, uptake of MGd by peripheral mononuclear cells, effect of MGd upon peripheral lymphocyte subset populations).

Detailed Description:

This is a phase I, dose-escalation study of motexafin gadolinium followed by a phase II study. Patients are stratified according to extent of lymphomatous involvement (≤ 5% vs > 5 but ≤ 24% of cellular elements).

Cohorts of 3-6 patients in each stratum receive escalating doses of motexafin gadolinium until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose at which 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) OR the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 or 3 of 6 patients experience DLT.

  • Once the MTD is determined, additional patients are treated at that dose level as in phase I.

Patients are followed weekly for 3 months and then monthly for 5 years.
