NCT00961220

Brief Summary

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of carmustine when given together with O6-benzylguanine and to see how well they work in treating patients with stage IA-IIA cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carmustine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. O6-benzylguanine may help carmustine work better by making cancer cells more sensitive to the drug. Giving O6-benzylguanine with carmustine may kill more cancer cells.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Overall Response Rate

    Based on changes in modified SWAT assessment, patient responses will be classified as complete clinical response (CCR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD), or progressive disease (PD). SWAT provides an accurate and reproducible assessment of cutaneous disease involvement based on body surface area of involvement and lesional thickness. CCR: No evidence of disease, 100% improvement for a duration of at least 4 weeks. PR: Greater than or equal to 50% decrease in SWAT score compared to baseline and improvement is maintained for at least 4 weeks. SD: Less than 50% decrease in SWAT score compared to baseline. PD: Increase of greater or equal to 25% of the SWAT score compared to baseline while the patient is actively taking the study drug

    Up to 2 weeks after completion of study treatment

Secondary Outcomes (12)

  • Changes in AGT (O6-alkylguanine DNA Alkyltransferase) Activity

    Baseline

  • Changes in AGT (O6-alkylguanine DNA Alkyltransferase) Activity

    24 hours after the first infusion

  • Changes in AGT (O6-alkylguanine DNA Alkyltransferase) Activity

    48 hours after the first infusion

  • Changes in AGT (O6-alkylguanine DNA Alkyltransferase) Activity

    1 week after the first infusion

  • Changes in the Apoptosis

    at 24 hours after the first infusion

  • +7 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Treatment (O6-benzylguanine, carmustine)

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients receive O6-benzylguanine IV over 1 hour and apply topical carmustine to the total skin surface (excluding the lips, eyelids, and ulcerated lesions) 1 hour after completing O6-benzylguanine infusion on days 1-2. Treatment repeats every 2 weeks for up to 12 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

  • Performance status Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) grade 0, 1, or 2
  • Patients must have recovered from toxicity of prior treatment and have received no CTCL therapy other than emollition for at least 4 weeks, with the exception of topical corticosteroids, which may be used up to 2 weeks before the trial start date
  • Patients must have signed a consent form indicating the investigational nature of the treatment and its potential side effects
