This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of flavopiridol in treating patients with previously treated chronic lymphocytic leukemia or lymphocytic lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy such as flavopiridol work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

primary Outcomes
  1. description
    DLTs were defined as non-hematologic toxicity of grade 3 or greater severity (excluding transient liver function abnormalities, transient electrolyte abnormalities that are not life threatening, fatigue, or diarrhea that resolve within 4 days), or in some case grade 2 toxicity (i.e. irreversible renal, chronic pulmonary, neurologic, or cardiac toxicity). Hematologic toxicity were evaluated by the modified NCI criteria and followed closely. Dose limiting only if grade 4 thrombocytopenia or neutropenia persists for 7 days or greater. Inability to continue with cycle 2 by 7 weeks for reasons other than progression of disease will also be considered a DLT.The National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria will be used to characterize toxicity.

brief Summary
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of flavopiridol in treating patients with previously treated chronic lymphocytic leukemia or lymphocytic lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy such as flavopiridol work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.
detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the toxicity profile, dose-limiting toxicity, and maximum tolerated dose of flavopiridol administered as a 30 minute loading dose followed by a 4-hour infusion once weekly for 4 consecutive weeks every 6 weeks. II. To determine the safety and feasibility of performing dose escalation to 80 mg/m2 (30 mg/m2 30-minute IV bolus followed by 50 mg/m2 4-hour IV infusion) beginning dose 2 in patients who do not experience severe tumor lysis requiring hemodialysis during dose 1. III. To determine the pharmacokinetics and cellular pharmacodynamics of flavopiridol administered in this schedule. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the complete response (CR) and overall response rate (CR + PR) of flavopiridol in patients with previously-treated CLL administered as a 30 minute loading dose followed by a 4 hour infusion once weekly for 4 consecutive weeks every 6 weeks. OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study. Patients receive a loading dose of flavopiridol IV over 30 minutes followed by a 4-hour infusion on days 1, 8, 15, and 22. Treatment repeats every 6 weeks for up to 6 courses in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression. Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of flavopiridol until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity. After the MTD is determined, 12 additional patients are accrued and treated as above at the recommended phase II dose. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed at 2 months and then every 3 months for 2 years.
