Purpose
The purpose of this study is to:
- Test the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of Bendamustine with whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT)
- To determine the plasma pharmacokinetics (a blood test to see how much of the drug is getting into the patient's system and how long it lasts in the system) of Bendamustine
- To determine the presence of Bendamustine in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) (fluid from the brain and spinal cord) of study patients Bendamustine is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for chronic lymphocytic leukemia. However, Bendamustine will be used in this study as an investigational agent.

|---|---|
|
Experimental: A - Cohort 1 Treatment
Cohort 1: Bendamustine 60 mg/m² x 4 weeks
|
Drug: Bendamustine
Approximately 15-24 study patients will be enrolled in this Phase I trial. Study patients will receive a weekly dose of IV bendamustine with whole brain radiation therapy for 3 weeks and then receive a fourth dose of IV bendamustine one week after completion of whole brain radiation therapy. The first dose of IV bendamustine will be given when whole brain radiation is initiated.
Other Name: Treanda

Experimental: B - Cohort 2 Treatment
Cohort 2: Bendamustine 80 mg/m² x 4 weeks
|
Drug: Bendamustine
Approximately 15-24 study patients will be enrolled in this Phase I trial. Study patients will receive a weekly dose of IV bendamustine with whole brain radiation therapy for 3 weeks and then receive a fourth dose of IV bendamustine one week after completion of whole brain radiation therapy. The first dose of IV bendamustine will be given when whole brain radiation is initiated.
Other Name: Treanda

Experimental: C - Cohort 3 Treatment
Cohort 3: Bendamustine 100 mg/m² x 4 weeks
|
Drug: Bendamustine
Approximately 15-24 study patients will be enrolled in this Phase I trial. Study patients will receive a weekly dose of IV bendamustine with whole brain radiation therapy for 3 weeks and then receive a fourth dose of IV bendamustine one week after completion of whole brain radiation therapy. The first dose of IV bendamustine will be given when whole brain radiation is initiated.

Detailed Description:
Bendamustine will be started in the first group at a dose of 60 mg/m²; patients in group 2 will be given Bendamustine at a dose of 80 mg/m²; patients in Group 3 will be given Bendamustine at 100 mg/m². Each cohort will receive Bendamustine once weekly for a total of 4 weeks.
Approximately 3-6 patients enrolled in this study will receive lumbar punctures. Patients will be told before study enrollment whether they will have a lumbar puncture to withdraw CSF.
