RATIONALE: ABT-888 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving ABT-888 together with cyclophosphamide may kill more cancer cells.
PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of ABT-888 when given together with cyclophosphamide in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable solid tumors or non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
Primary Outcome Measures:
- Maximum tolerated dose and dose-limiting toxicity of ABT-888 and cyclophosphamide [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Pharmacokinetic parameters [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- To identify the maximum tolerated dose and dose-limiting toxicity of ABT-888 when administered in combination with cyclophosphamide in patients with metastatic or unresectable solid tumors or non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
Secondary
- To evaluate the effect of ABT-888 on the systemic clearance of cyclophosphamide and the dose-normalized AUC of its 4-OH metabolite.
- To evaluate the effect of cyclophosphamide on the systemic pharmacokinetics of ABT-888 and its primary metabolite A-925088.
- To evaluate poly (ADP ribose) polymerase (PARP) enzyme inhibition using an immunoassay designed to measure poly-ADP-ribosylated (PAR) levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cell samples at baseline and during study treatment.
OUTLINE: Patients receive oral ABT-888 twice daily on days 1-4 and cyclophosphamide IV over 60 minutes on day 3. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Blood samples are collected periodically for pharmacokinetic analysis by liquid and gas chromatography and mass spectrometry assays and for analysis of poly-ADP-ribosylated (PAR) levels by immunoassay.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed for 4 weeks.
