Brief summary
Assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of rapamycin in combination with HiVAC in relapsed and refractory patients with aggressive lymphoid malignancies.
Interventions
Rapamycin,by mouth, loading dose followed by a single daily dose for 8 days (dose level 1 = load of 9 mg followed by 3 mg daily doses, dose level 2 = 12 mg with daily doses of 4 mg
Etoposide 500 mg/m2/day IV and Cytarabine 2000 mg/m2/day IV every 24 hours for 4 days.
