[Note: A new classification scheme for adult non-Hodgkin's lymphoma has been adopted by PDQ.

- Fertile patients must use effective contraception
Expected Enrollment 30A total of 6-30 patients will be accrued for this study within 24-30 months. Outcomes Primary Outcome(s)Maximum tolerated dose Dose-limiting toxicity
Secondary Outcome(s)Anti-lymphoma efficacy
Outline 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). - Phase I: Patients receive motexafin gadolinium IV over 30-60 minutes on days 1-4 and 8-11. At least 1 hour after motexafin gadolinium administration, patients receive rituximab IV over 3-4 hours on days 1 and 8. After rituximab administration, patients receive indium In 111 ibritumomab tiuxetan IV over 10 minutes on day 1. Patients undergo gamma camera scanning on days 1, 2*, 4*, and 7 and dosimetry on days 2, 4, and 7. If safe biodistribution is demonstrated, patients receive yttrium Y 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan IV over 10 minutes (after rituximab administration) on day 8.
[Note: *Patients undergo scanning after motexafin gadolinium administration on days 2 and 4.] 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.
- Phase II: 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.

Note: The purpose of most clinical trials listed in this database is to test new cancer treatments, or new methods of diagnosing, screening, or preventing cancer. Because all potentially harmful side effects are not known before a trial is conducted, dose and schedule modifications may be required for participants if they develop side effects from the treatment or test. The therapy or test described in this clinical trial is intended for use by clinical oncologists in carefully structured settings, and may not prove to be more effective than standard treatment. A responsible investigator associated with this clinical trial should be consulted before using this protocol. Back to Top |
