A Phase II Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of IV Busulfan, Melphalan, and Thiotepa (BuMelTT) Followed By Autologous PBSC Infusion for Patients With Hodgkin's Disease and Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma


OBJECTIVES:

- Determine the therapeutic efficacy of a myeloablative preparative regimen comprising
busulfan, melphalan, and thiotepa followed by autologous peripheral blood stem cell
(PBSC) transplantation in patients with Hodgkin's or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

- Determine the toxic effects of this preparative regimen in these patients.

OUTLINE:

- Myeloablative preparative regimen: Patients receive busulfan IV over 3 hours on days -8
to -6, melphalan IV over 15-30 minutes on days -5 and -4, and thiotepa IV over 2 hours
on days -3 and -2.

- Peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplantation: Patients undergo PBSC
transplantation on day 0 followed by filgrastim (G-CSF) IV over 30 minutes beginning on
day 5 and continuing until blood counts recover.

- Intrathecal chemotherapy: Patients with a history of treated CNS disease or at
high-risk for CNS relapse receive methotrexate and cytarabine intrathecally (IT) for 2
doses each within 10 days prior to transplantation and 4-6 doses each beginning on day
32 post-transplantation.

- Consolidation therapy: Patients with residual bulk disease at 80-100 days
post-transplantation that is > 2.5 cm by CT scan may undergo local radiotherapy to
residual scar/disease provided it can be encompassed in a single radiation port and the
volume of lung to be irradiated is ≤ 20%.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed weekly for 1 month, monthly for 6
months, every 3 months for 6 months, every 6 months for 1 year, and then annually
thereafter.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 30 patients will be accrued for this study.

Inclusion Criteria


DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:

- Diagnosis of 1 of the following:

- Intermediate- or high-grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), meeting 1 of the
following criteria:

- In first complete remission (CR) AND at high-risk for relapse, as defined
by all of the following criteria:

- High age-adjusted International Prognostic Index category AND meets
the following criteria at diagnosis:

- Stage III or IV disease

- Lactic dehydrogenase abnormal

- ECOG 0-2

- Mantle cell histology

- Primary refractory disease

- Beyond first CR

- Low-grade NHL

- Beyond second relapse

- Hodgkin's lymphoma

- Primary refractory disease OR beyond first CR

- Must have an adequate number of stored autologous peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs)
(i.e., 2.0 x 10^6 CD34-positive cells/kg)

- Patients who are not able to mobilize a sufficient number of PBSCs may use bone
marrow instead

- No active CNS disease NOTE: A new classification scheme for adult non-Hodgkin's
lymphoma has been adopted by PDQ. The terminology of "indolent" or "aggressive"
lymphoma will replace the former terminology of "low", "intermediate", or "high"
grade lymphoma. However, this protocol uses the former terminology.
