Brief Summary

This phase II trial is studying how well giving rituximab together with combination chemotherapy and bortezomib works in treating patients with untreated mantle cell lymphoma. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or stopping them from dividing. Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving rituximab together with combination chemotherapy and bortezomib may kill more cancer cells.

Treatment consists of six agents: bortezomib (Vc), rituximab (R), cyclophosphamide (C), vincristine (V), doxorubicin (A), and dexamethasone (D) (VcR-CVAD).

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate the complete response (CR) rate in patients with mantle cell lymphoma, who are treated with VcR-CVAD.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate the overall response rate to VcR-CVAD. II. To evaluate the progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of patients receiving maintenance rituximab after VcR-CVAD induction.

III. To evaluate the PFS and OS of patients who receive autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) after VcR-CVAD induction.

IV. To evaluate the toxicity of VcR-CVAD.

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Evaluation of antigen expression patterns to determine or confirm possible unique expressions of MCL.

II. To evaluate the percentage of circulating mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) cells.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Induction therapy (VcR-CVAD): Patients receive VcR-CVAD comprising bortezomib 1.3 mg/m2 IV over 3-5 seconds on days 1 and 4; rituximab 375 mg/m2 IV over 3-4 hours on day 1; doxorubicin hydrochloride 25 mg/m2/d IV over 48 hours on days 1 and 2; cyclophosphamide 300 mg/m2 IV over 3 hours every 12 hours on days 1-3; vincristine 1 mg IV over 3-5 seconds on day 3; and dexamethasone 40 mg IV or orally once daily on days 1-4. Patients also receive filgrastim (G-CSF) subcutaneously (SC) or IV once daily beginning on day 5 or 6 and continuing until blood counts recover OR pegfilgrastim SC on day 5 or 6. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Maintenance therapy: Beginning 4-8 weeks after completion of induction therapy, patients receive rituximab IV over 3-4 hours once weekly for 4 weeks. Treatment repeats every 6 months for up to 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of induction therapy, patients who are eligible may have the option to receive consolidation therapy for autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) (off-study). These patients undergo stem cell harvest during courses 4, 5, or 6 of induction therapy.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically for up to 10 years.

Exclusion Criteria

• Known HIV disease; an HIV test is not required for entry on study but is required if the patient is perceived to be at risk; patients with a history of intravenous drug use or any other behavior with an increased risk for HIV infection should be tested for exposure to the HIV virus; patients with known HIV are excluded since the immunocompromised state of patients with HIV infection or the concomitant use of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) may result in more extensive dose modifications than intended for the intensive therapeutic regimen used in this study

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Complete Response (CR) Rate	Assessed after VcR-CVAD cycles 2, 4, and 6.	Number of eligible, treated participants who achieve complete response. Response criteria are based upon the criteria from the Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma (Cheson et al., 2007). Complete response is defined as complete disappearance of all detectable clinical evidence of disease, and disease-related symptoms if present prior to therapy.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
3-year Overall Survival (OS)	Assessed every 6 months for 5 years, and then yearly thereafter.	OS for patients who received maintenance rituximab or ASCT after VcR-CVAD induction is defined as time from start of maintenance rituximab or ASCT to death. Patients alive at last follow-up were censored.
2-year Progression-free Survival (PFS)	Assessed every 6 months for 5 years, and then yearly thereafter.	PFS for patients who received maintenance rituximab or ASCT after VcR-CVAD induction is defined as time from start of maintenance rituximab or ASCT to earlier of disease progression or death. Patients alive and progression-free at last follow-up were censored.
