Follicular Lymphoma (FL)
Indolent non-FL B-NHL or MCL
Other Disease
Participants with relapsed/refractory FL received 200 mg of vorinostat (MK-0683) twice daily (200 mg x 2/day) for 14 consecutive days followed by 1 week (7 days) rest in a 21-day cycle, until they met the per-participant discontinuation criteria specified by the protocol.
Participants with indolent non-follicular lymphoma (FL) B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHL), or with mantle cell Lymphoma (MCL) received 200 mg of vorinostat (MK-0683) twice daily (200 mg x 2/day) for 14 consecutive days followed by 1 week (7 days) rest in a 21-day cycle, until they met the per-participant discontinuation criteria specified by the protocol.
Participants with disease other than relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma (FL), non-FL B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHL), or mantle cell Lymphoma (MCL), as assessed by the Independent Central Pathological Committee, received 200 mg of vorinostat (MK-0683) twice daily (200 mg x 2/day) for 14 consecutive days followed by 1 week (7 days) rest in a 21-day cycle, until they met the per-participant discontinuation criteria specified by the protocol. This group was created to include participants who enrolled, but whose later diagnoses by the Independent Central Pathological Committee excluded them from analysis in the FL and non-FL B-NHL/MCL groups because they had different disease than those prespecified in the protocol.
