Summary

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.
