Untreated Mantle Cell Lymphoma

Brief summary

Primary Objective 1\. To evaluate the safety profile of Bevacizumab (Bevacizumab™)- Rituximab (Rituxan®)-CHOP (RA-CHOP) in patients with newly diagnosed mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Secondary Objectives 1. To evaluate the response rate and time to disease progression of the RA-CHOP regimen in patients with newly diagnosed MCL. 2. To prospectively characterize the angiogenic profiles of MCL patients during RA-CHOP treatment.

Detailed description

Bevacizumab administered at 15 mg/kg on day 1 of each of 6 cycles Rituximab administered 375 mg/m2 on day 3 of each of 6 cycles (with usual premedications) Standard CHOP chemotherapy administered on day 3 every 21 days (full dose) for 6 cycles of treatment Once completed six cycles of therapy (\ 18 weeks), patients will be evaluated every 3 months for the first year post treatment, then every 6 months until disease progression or death for years 2 through 5 post treatment. Patients who have disease progression will be contacted every 6 months until death to assess for survival status.

Interventions

DRUGBevacizumab

15 mg/kg on day 1 of each of 6 cycles

DRUGRituximab

Rituximab will be administered prior to CHOP on day 3 of every cycle for a total of 6 cycles. The dose to be administered is: Rituximab: 375 mg/m2

DRUGCHOP

Standard CHOP chemotherapy will be administered at full dose every 21 days for a total of 6 cycles. The doses to be used are: Cyclophosphamide: 750 mg/m2 IV on day 3 Doxorubicin: 50 mg/m2 IV on day 3 Vincristine: 1.4 mg/m2 IV (not to exceed 2.0 mg total) on day 3 Prednisone: 100 mg PO days 3 - 7
