About This Recurrent Follicular Lymphoma Study in Sacramento

This phase II trial investigates how well brentuximab vedotin and bendamustine work in treating patients with follicular lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Brentuximab vedotin is a monoclonal antibody, brentuximab, linked to a toxic agent called vedotin. Brentuximab attaches to CD30 positive cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers vedotin to kill them. Chemotherapy drugs, such as bendamustine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. This trial is being done to determine if the combination of brentuximab vedotin plus bendamustine is safe and to determine the effectiveness of the combination.

Who Can Participate

Inclusion Criteria

Histologically or cytologically confirmed relapsed or refractory follicular CD30+ non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) (included in this category are follicular grade I, II, IIIa). CD30 positivity \> 1% (tumor cells or surrounding peripheral microenvironment)
Patients must have measurable disease by computed tomography (CT) or positron emission tomography (PET) scan, with one or more sites of disease \>= 1.5 cm in longest dimension
Relapsed or refractory disease after at least 1 prior regimen, defined using the 2014 Lugano classification
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status =\< 2 (Karnofsky \>= 60%)
Life expectancy of greater than 3 months
Leukocytes \>= 2,500/mcL
Absolute neutrophil count \>= 1,000/mcL
Platelets \>= 50,000/mcL
Hemoglobin \>= 8 g/dL
Total bilirubin =\< 1.5 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) (however, patients with known Gilbert disease who have serum bilirubin level =\< 3 x ULN may be enrolled)
Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase \[SGOT\])/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase \[SGPT\]) =\< 3 x ULN (AST and/or ALT =\< 5 x ULN for patients with liver involvement)
Alkaline phosphatase =\< 2.5 x ULN (=\< 5 x ULN for patients with documented liver involvement or bone metastases)
Creatinine clearance \>= 30 mL/min/1.73 m\^2 by Cockcroft-Gault
Institutional normalized ratio (INR) and partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) =\< 1.5 x ULN (This applies only to patients who do not receive therapeutic anticoagulation; patients receiving therapeutic anticoagulation, such as low-molecular-weight heparin or warfarin, should be on a stable dose.)
Administration of bendamustine or brentuximab vedotin may have an adverse effect on pregnancy and poses a risk to the human fetus, including embryo-lethality. Women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry, for the duration of study participation, and for 5 months (150 days) after the last dose of study agent. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately
Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document
Patients positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) are allowed on study, but HIV-positive patients must have:
A stable regimen of highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART)
No requirement for concurrent antibiotics or antifungal agents for the prevention of opportunistic infections
A CD4 count above 250 cells/mcL and an undetectable HIV viral load on standard polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based tests

Exclusion Criteria

Patients who have had chemotherapy, or radiotherapy within 2 weeks (6 weeks for nitrosoureas or mitomycin C, steroid treatment for follicular lymphoma is allowed per protocol) prior to entering the study or those who have not recovered from adverse events (other than alopecia) due to agents administered more than 2 weeks earlier. Specifically, the following therapies are not allowed:
Herbal therapy (1 week washout required)
Treatment with any other investigational agent within 3 weeks prior to cycle 1, day 1.
Prior therapy with bendamustine or a bendamustine-containing regimens with progression within 6 months of receiving treatment
Current or prior use of immunosuppressive medications (including, but not limited to, prednisone, cyclophosphamide, azathioprine, methotrexate, thalidomide, and anti-tumor necrosis factor \[anti-TNF\] agents) within 14 days prior to first dose (cycle 1, day 1). The following are exceptions to this criterion:
Intranasal, inhaled, topical or local steroid injections (e.g., intra-articular injection); steroids as premedication for hypersensitivity reactions; systemic corticosteroid at physiologic doses not to exceed 10 mg/day of prednisone or equivalent may be enrolled
Patients who have received acute, low dose, systemic immunosuppressant medications (e.g., a one-time dose of dexamethasone for nausea) may be enrolled
The use of inhaled corticosteroids and mineralocorticoids (e.g., fludrocortisone) for patients with orthostatic hypotension or adrenocortical insufficiency is allowed
Patients taking bisphosphonate therapy for symptomatic hypercalcemia. Use of bisphosphonate therapy for other reasons (e.g., bone metastasis or osteoporosis) is allowed
Patients with known uncontrolled central nervous system (CNS) involvement by lymphoma, including leptomeningeal involvement
History of hypersensitivity to bendamustine or brentuximab vedotin or any excipient
Known hypersensitivity to Chinese hamster ovary cell products or other recombinant human antibodies
History of severe allergic, anaphylactic, or other hypersensitivity reactions to chimeric or humanized antibodies or fusion proteins
History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to other agents used in study
Known clinically significant liver disease, including active viral, alcoholic, or other hepatitis; cirrhosis; fatty liver; and inherited liver disease.
Patients with past or resolved hepatitis B infection (defined as having a negative hepatitis B surface antigen \[HBsAg\] test and a positive anti-HBc \[antibody to hepatitis B core antigen\] antibody test) are eligible.
Patients positive for hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody are eligible only if polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is negative for HCV ribonucleic acid (RNA)
Neuropathy grade \> 1
Patients with eczema, psoriasis, lichen simplex chronicus of vitiligo with dermatologic manifestations only (e.g., patients with psoriatic arthritis would be excluded) are permitted provided that they meet the following conditions:
Rash must cover less than 10% of body surface area (BSA)
Disease is well controlled at baseline and only requiring low potency topical steroids (e.g., hydrocortisone 2.5%, hydrocortisone butyrate 0.1%, fluocinolone 0.01%, desonide 0.05%, alclometasone dipropionate 0.05%)
No acute exacerbations of underlying condition within the last 12 months (not requiring psoralen plus ultraviolet A radiation \[PUVA\], methotrexate, retinoids, biologic agents, oral calcineurin inhibitors; high potency or oral steroids)
Patients with known active tuberculosis (TB) are excluded
