Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia (lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma, WM) remains incurable with limited therapeutic options and notably absent FDA approved therapy with any WM indication. Therefore, there is a need to identify new therapeutic agents for WM patients both in the upfront and relapsed/refractory setting. The purpose of this research study is to assess the efficacy of perifosine in patients with relapsed or refractory WM.

- EXPERIMENTAL
- label
- Perifosine
- description
- Patients receive oral perifosine (150 mg) daily each cycle. Cycle duration is 28 days. After cycle 2, response is assessed and patients with stable or responding disease can continue for another 4 cycles or until disease progression (PD). Protocol treatment duration is 6 cycles but patients may receive perifosine maintenance per investigator discretion in absence of PD.

Primary outcomes (1)
- measure
- Overall Response (OR) Rate
- timeFrame
- Disease was assessed every cycle for the first 12 months and every 3 months thereafter. The median duration of treatment with perifosine was 5.6 months (range, 1.8- 21.5+).
- description
- OR rate is the percentage of patients achieving Complete Response (CR), Partial Response (PR) or Minimal Response (MR) during treatment based on criteria from the 2nd International Workshop on WM. (Weber D, Treon S, et al. Seminars in Oncology 2003). CR: Disappearance of serum monoclonal IgM protein (IgM M-protein) by immunofixation; no histologic evidence of bone marrow (BM) involvement, resolution of any adenopathy/organomegaly (confirmed by CT scan); PR: At least 50% reduction of IgM M-protein and at least 50% decrease in adenopathy/organomegaly on physical examination or on CT scan; and MR: At least 25% but less than 50% reduction of IgM M-protein by protein electrophoresis. Patients must have no new symptoms or signs of active disease.
