Trial Information

PHASE II TRIAL OF FLUDARABINE AND SANDOSTATIN FOR RELAPSED LOW-GRADE NON-HODGKIN'S LYMPHOMA


OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the response rate and duration of response to fludarabine combined
with octreotide and to octreotide alone in patients with relapsed indolent non-Hodgkin's
lymphoma. II. Determine serum insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and IGF-1 binding protein
levels before and after treatment in this patient population. III. Determine somatostatin
receptor subtypes in lymphoma biopsy samples from selected patients.

OUTLINE: Patients receive fludarabine IV over 10-30 minutes on days 1-5. Patients not
currently receiving octreotide, receive a test dose of octreotide subcutaneously on day 1
during course 1 only and then receive octreotide intramuscularly monthly on day 1. Treatment
repeats every 28 days for 4-6 courses. Patients then receive octreotide alone for 6-8
courses. Some patients may then receive another 12 courses of octreotide alone, for a total
of 2 years of treatment. Patients are followed every 3 months for 5 years or until disease
progression.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 23-34 patients will be accrued for this study within 1.5
years.
