This is a study to test how safe the combination of the drugs Romidepsin and Pralatrexate are in patients with lymphoid malignancies and to determine the dose of the combination of drugs that is safest. If the combination is determined to be safe, the study will continue accrual patients with peripheral T-Cell lymphoma (PTCL).

primary Outcomes
  1. description
    The MTD was defined as the dose level at which one-third or fewer patients experienced a dose limiting toxicity. The MTD is determined in clinical trials by testing increasing doses on different groups of people until the highest dose with acceptable side effects is found.
    measure
    Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of the Combination of Pralatrexate and Romidepsin in Phase 1
    time Frame
    Up to 1.5 years
  2. description
    ORR was defined as the number of subjects in a study or treatment group who have a partial response or complete response to the treatment within a certain period of time. A partial response is a decrease in the size of a tumor or in the amount of cancer in the body, and a complete response is the disappearance of all signs of cancer in the body. In a clinical trial, measuring the ORR is one way to see how well a new treatment works.
    measure
    Overall Response Rate (ORR) of Subjects Who Received Combination of Pralatrexate and Romidepsin in Phase 2
    time Frame
    Up to 3 years

  2. description
    OS was defined as the length of time from either the date of diagnosis or the start of treatment for a disease, such as cancer, that patients diagnosed with the disease are still alive. In a clinical trial, measuring the OS is one way to see how well a new treatment works.
    measure
    Overall Survival (OS) of Subjects in Phase 2
    time Frame
    Up to 3 years
  3. description
    PFS was defined as the length of time during and after the treatment of a disease, such as cancer, that a patient lives with the disease but it does not get worse. In a clinical trial, measuring the PFS is one way to see how well a new treatment works.
    measure
    Progression Free Survival (PFS) of Subjects in Phase 2
    time Frame
    Up to 3 years

brief Summary
This is a study to test how safe the combination of the drugs Romidepsin and Pralatrexate are in patients with lymphoid malignancies and to determine the dose of the combination of drugs that is safest. If the combination is determined to be safe, the study will continue accrual patients with peripheral T-Cell lymphoma (PTCL).
detailed Description
The non- Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL) represent a heterogeneous group of malignancies. Under the rubric of lymphoma exist some of the fastest growing cancers known to science, (Burkett's lymphoma, lymphoblastic lymphoma/leukemia), as well as some of the most indolent (small lymphocytic lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, and marginal zone lymphoma). This remarkable diversity of biology imposes significant challenges. Researchers are seeking to understand the cell of origin and differentiate what are sometimes subtle differences between the related sub-types of disease; and to identify the best treatments for these subtypes, with the ever-increasing likelihood that new understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of these diseases will result in an increase in new drugs for specific target populations.
