secondary Outcomes
  1. description
    Overall response includes the rate of complete response (CR), partial response (PR), minimal response (MR), stabl disease (SD) and progressive disease (PD). Minor response is \>25%-50% reduction in serum IgM from baseline. Partial Response is (\>50-90% reduction in serum IgM from baseline.

Full study description
brief Summary
This research study is evaluating a drug called ixazomib (also known as MLN9708) in combination with dexamethasone and rituximab (the regimen is called IDR) as a possible treatment for Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia (WM).
detailed Description
This research study is a Phase II clinical trial. Phase II clinical trials test the safety and effectiveness of an investigational regimen, IDR, to learn whether IDR works in treating a specific cancer. "Investigational" means that IDR is still being studied and that research doctors are trying to find out more about it-such as the safest dose to use, the side effects it may cause, and if IDR is effective for treating different types of cancer. It also means that the FDA (the U.S. Food and Drug Administration) has not yet approved IDR for use in participants with your type of cancer. Ixazomib is a drug that may kill or stop cancer cells from growing by blocking the proteasome within the cell, which is responsible for degrading or breaking down a variety of proteins. This type of drug is called a proteasome inhibitor. Rituximab is a type of protein called an antibody that attacks the cluster of differentiation 20 (CD20), a protein found on B-cells like WM. Rituximab is approved by the FDA for treating non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Dexamethasone is a steroid and is similar to the hormones naturally produced by the adrenal glands; it prevents the release of substances that cause inflammation. Rituximab and dexamethasone are often used to treat WM, alone or in combination with other drugs. Combinations with rituximab, dexamethasone and other proteasome inhibitors have shown good response rates in WM participants. Ixazomib is a proteasome inhibitor; thus the investigator swill investigate if the combination of Ixazomib, Rituximab, and Dexamethasone is also active in WM. In this research study, the investigators are combining a new treatment ixazomib with a standard regimen, rituximab and dexamethasone, to determine whether this combination (IDR) is effective and safe for participants with previously untreated WM.
