Study Summary

This phase II trial studies the effect of ascorbic acid and combination chemotherapy in treating patients with lymphoma that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to therapy (refractory), clonal cytopenia of undetermined significance and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). Ascorbic acid may make cancer cells more sensitive to chemotherapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy, 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 ascorbic acid and combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells.

Primary Outcome

Defined as an objective status of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) evaluated by Response Evaluation Criteria in Lymphoma (RECIL) criteria after 2 courses of treatment in all arms. Will be compared between the two arms. The proportion of successes will be estimated in each arm by the number of successes divided by the total number of evaluable patients. Exact binomial ninety-five percent confidence intervals for the true success proportion will be calculated in each arm. For the di
