About
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and the best dose of veliparib when given together with bendamustine hydrochloride and rituximab and to see how well they work in treating patients with lymphoma, multiple myeloma, or solid tumors that have come back or have not responded to treatment. Veliparib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bendamustine hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Others interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving veliparib together with bendamustine hydrochloride and rituximab may kill more cancer cells.
Full description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) of ABT-888 (veliparib) in combination with bendamustine (bendamustine hydrochloride) in patients with solid tumors, lymphoma, or multiple myeloma. (Phase Ib) II. To establish the safety of ABT-888 in combination with bendamustine and rituximab in an expansion cohort of patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). (Phase Ib) III. To assess the toxicity profile of this regimen in the above patients. (Phase Ib) IV. To determine the complete response (CR) rate in patients with indolent NHL or mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) treated with ABT-888 + bendamustine + rituximab. (Phase IIa)
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess response rates and survival parameters of patients treated with ABT-888 + bendamustine +/- rituximab. (Phase Ib) II. To assess pharmacokinetic parameters of ABT-888 in this regimen. (Phase Ib) III. To assess progression-free survival, overall survival, and duration of remission of patients with indolent NHL and MCL treated with ABT-888 + bendamustine + rituximab. (Phase IIa)
OUTLINE: This is a phase I, dose-escalation study of veliparib followed by a phase II study.
Patients receive veliparib orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-7 and bendamustine hydrochloride intravenously (IV) over 30-60 minutes on days 1-2. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Once the maximum-tolerated dose is determined, a cohort of patients receives veliparib and bendamustine hydrochloride as above and rituximab IV on day 1. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 30 days.

Inclusion criteria
- Phase 1b: Patients must have a histologically confirmed solid malignancy, lymphoma or multiple myeloma for which standard curative or palliative measures do not exist, are no longer effective, or for which the patient is not eligible or refuses; phase 1b cohort expansion: patients must have a histologically confirmed cluster of differentiation (CD)-20 positive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma for which standard curative or palliative measures do not exist, are no longer effective, or for which the patient is not eligible or refuses; phase 2a: patients must have histologically or cytologically confirmed marginal zone B-cell lymphoma, small lymphocytic lymphoma, lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma or mantle cell lymphoma, and must have at least one measureable site of disease
- For lymphoma and multiple myeloma patients: patients who have relapsed or are refractory to at least one prior chemotherapeutic regimen or biologic agent; patients must either be ineligible for or have refused curative options for treatment, including stem cell transplant, if applicable
- For solid tumor patients: relapsed or refractory to at least one prior chemotherapeutic regimen or biologic agent; patients must either be ineligible for or have refused curative options for treatment
- Patients must have had a rest period of at least 3 weeks since prior chemotherapy or radiation therapy, 6 weeks if the last regimen included carmustine (BCNU) or mitomycin C; there must be a rest period of at least 3 months if the last therapy was immunotherapy or radioimmunotherapy (unless the disease has progressed since treatment)

- Creatinine within normal institutional limits OR creatinine clearance >= 60 mL/min for patients with creatinine levels above institutional normal
- Patients with prior stem cell transplant will be eligible as long as they have not relapsed or progressed within 100 days post-transplant and they meet the above inclusion criteria
- Women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal, barrier method of birth control, or abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation; should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately

- Toxicities from prior therapies must have resolved to baseline, or be =< grade 2 and stable for at least one month
- Patient must be able to swallow pills
- Patients with central nervous system (CNS) metastases must be stable after therapy for > 3 months and off steroid treatment prior to study enrollment
Exclusion criteria
- Patients who have had chemotherapy or radiotherapy within 3 weeks (6 weeks for nitrosoureas or mitomycin C) prior to entering the study or those who have not recovered to baseline (or are not at stable grade =< 2) from adverse events due to agents administered more than 3 weeks earlier; patients who have received immunotherapy or radioimmunotherapy within 3 months, unless disease has progressed since treatment; patients who have been administered ABT-888 as part of a single or limited dosing study, such as a phase 0 study, will not be excluded from participating in this study solely because of receiving prior ABT-888
- Patients may not be receiving any other investigational agents
- History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to ABT-888, bendamustine or mannitol; patients enrolling in the cohort expansion or phase 2 portions of the study who have been intolerant of repeated doses of rituximab in the past will be excluded (patients who have had infusion reactions to their initial dose of rituximab will not be excluded)
