Brief Summary:
This phase I trial studies the side effect and best dose of ibrutinib in combination with rituximab, etoposide, prednisone, vincristine sulfate, cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin hydrochloride in treating patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive stage II-IV diffuse large B-cell lymphomas. Ibrutinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as etoposide, prednisone, vincristine sulfate, cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin hydrochloride, 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. Giving ibrutinib and etoposide, prednisone, vincristine sulfate, cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin hydrochloride may work better in treating patients with HIV-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphomas.

Primary Outcome Measures :
- Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of ibrutinib in combination with chemotherapy [ Time Frame: Up to 21 days ]There will be no formal statistical testing for the dose-finding portion of the study.
- Recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of ibrutinib in combination with chemotherapy [ Time Frame: Up to 21 days ]There will be no formal statistical testing for the dose-finding portion of the study.
Secondary Outcome Measures :
- Incidence of adverse events graded using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0 [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]Toxicity data will be presented by type and severity for each dose cohort. Incidence of toxicity related dose reductions and treatment discontinuations will be summarized for each dose group.
- Complete response rates [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]The complete response rates and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals will be calculated for participants with AIDS-related lymphomas (ARL) treated with combination ibrutinib and rituximab (R)-dose adjusted (da)-etoposide, prednisone, vincristine sulfate, cyclophosphamide and doxorubicin hydrochloride (EPOCH).
- Progression free survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: 1 year ]PFS will be estimated using Kaplan Meier method, as well as, their corresponding 95% confidence intervals.
- Progression free survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: 2 years ]PFS will be estimated using Kaplan Meier method, as well as, their corresponding 95% confidence intervals.
- Overall survival (OS) [ Time Frame: 1 year ]OS will be estimated using Kaplan Meier method, as well as, their corresponding 95% confidence intervals.
- Overall survival (OS) [ Time Frame: 2 years ]OS will be estimated using Kaplan Meier method, as well as, their corresponding 95% confidence intervals.
- Lymphoma cell-of-origin (COO) assessment [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]Will be determined by gene expression profiling (GEP) (germinal center B-cell [GCB], activated B-cell [ABC], unclassifiable) and immunohistochemistry [IHC] (GCB, non-GCB). The concordances and discordances between classifications will be estimated with binomial proportions and their 95% corresponding confidence intervals. The response rates and survival as categorized by GEP or IHC will be compared, to see which analysis of COO best correlates with treatment response. Chi-square tests will be used to test the associations between 1) GEP (GCB, ABC, unclassifiable) with response rates and 2) IHC (GCB, non-GCB) with responses rate. The Kaplan Meier method will be used to calculate estimates of OS and PFS within GEP (GCB, ABC, unclassifiable) and within IHC (GCB, non-GCB), as well as their 95% confidence intervals. The log-rank test will be used to test differences with respect to OS and PFS within GEP and within IHC.
- Percentage of participants who receive two or more cycles of combination chemotherapy, and are able to continue on a minimum dose level of cyclophosphamide of -1 and above after dose adjustments [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]Hematologic toxicities will be calculated.
- Average number of days per cycle participants are able to stay on planned dose of ibrutinib [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]Average number of days will be calculated.
- Changes in the levels of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 viral reservoirs [ Time Frame: Baseline up to 5 years ]Descriptive statistics will be used to evaluate the changes and will be compared with treatment completion. If there are sufficient data, the binomial test of proportions will be used to test if the long term viral reservoir is either undetectable or below baseline in at least half of the participants.
- Changes in Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) viral loads [ Time Frame: Baseline up to 5 years ]Descriptive statistics will be used to evaluate the changes and compared with treatment completion. If there are sufficient data, the binomial test of proportions will be used to test if the long term viral reservoir is either undetectable or below baseline in at least half of the participants.
- Effect of treatment on HIV latency reservoirs [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]Will be correlated with degree of ITK inhibition and Pearson or Spearman correlation coefficients will be used, as appropriate.
- Effect of treatment on B-cell receptor signaling pathway including BTK activity [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]Descriptive statistics will be used.
- Effect of treatment on T-cell receptor signaling via ITK activity. [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]Descriptive statistics will be used.
- Soluble cytokine response to treatment [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]Descriptive statistics will be used.
- Pharmacokinetics (PK) parameters assessment for ibrutinib, doxorubicin hydrochloride, etoposide, and vincristine sulfate [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]Relevant individual PK parameters will be estimated using non-compartmental or compartmental PK methods with the software WinNonlin. The PK variables will be tabulated and descriptive statistics (e.g., geometric means and coefficients of variation) and compared across dose levels (if applicable) using nonparametric statistical testing techniques. PK parameters (i.e., steady state concentration [Css], clearance [Cl], and area under the curve [AUC]) will be correlated with pharmacodynamics effects using nonparametric statistical testing techniques.
