Brief Summary

RATIONALE: AR-42 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of AR-42 in treating patients with advanced or relapsed multiple myeloma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, or lymphoma.

Study Arms (2)

Arm I (Hematologic Malignancies)

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will receive orally administered AR-42 three times per week (Mon, Wed, and Fri preferred) in cycles of 28 days (3 weeks of 3-times-per-week dosing followed by a 7-day off-treatment period).

Other: Pharmacodynamic StudiesOther: Fatigue InventoryOther: Pharmacogenomic studiesDrug: AR-42

Arm II (Solid Tumors)

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will receive orally administered AR-42 three times per week (Mon, Wed, and Fri preferred) in cycles of 28 days (3 weeks of 3-times-per-week dosing followed by a 7-day off-treatment period).

Drug: AR-42

Interventions

Assess at baseline (pre-dose day 1 of cycle 1), approximately 24 hours after the first dose, pre-dose days 2 and 3, and pre-dose day 19 for histone acetylation of tumor cells (CLL patients) or mononuclear cells (PBMCs for lymphoma, myeloma, and solid tumor patients). Cytokine studies will be collected pre-dose on days 1, 2, 8, 15, 19 of cycle 1, day 1 of cycle 2, and pre-dose days 1, 8, 15 of cycle 3.

Also known as: correlative studies
Arm I (Hematologic Malignancies)

Brief Fatigue Inventory should take each patient approximately 5 minutes to fill out this survey per instance on day 1 of every cycle.

Also known as: quality-of-life assessmentBrief
Arm I (Hematologic Malignancies)

Baseline germ line DNA from buccal swabs will be collected for analysis of drug (AR-42) metabolism SNPs and other biologic SNPs that might predict immune or disease response to therapy. Pharmacogenetic status of key metabolizing enzymes (eg, CYP3A5, UGT1A8) and transporter proteins (SLCO1B1, ABCG2) will also be considered for their role in drug clearance in individual patients.
