35 . A method of treating a lymphoma in a subject in need thereof comprising co-administering:
a. a first amount of ibrutinib; and
b. a second amount of bortezomib,
wherein, together, the first amount of ibrutinib and the second amount of bortezomib are therapeutically effective.
36 . The method of claim 35 , wherein the lymphoma is a relapsed or refractory lymphoma.
37 . The method of claim 35 , wherein the lymphoma is non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
38 . The method of claim 35 , wherein the lymphoma is mantle cell lymphoma.
39 . The method of claim 35 , wherein the lymphoma is relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma.
40 . The method of claim 35 , wherein, following co-administration of ibrutinib and bortezomib, the subject achieves a longer disease free survival (DFS) than a control subject who was administered bortezomib alone.
41 . The method of claim 35 , wherein, following co-administration of ibrutinib and bortezomib, the subject achieves a longer overall survival (OS) than a control subject who was administered bortezomib alone.
42 . The method of claim 35 , wherein, following co-administration of ibrutinib and bortezomib, the subject does not experience a relapse of the lymphoma for about 6 months, about 1 year, about 2 years, about 3 years, about 4 years, about 5 years, about 6 years, about 7 years, about 8 years, about 9 years, or about 10 years.
43 . The method of claim 35 , wherein, following co-administration of ibrutinib and bortezomib, the subject experiences a reduced risk of relapsed or refractory lymphoma as compared to a control subject who was administered bortezomib alone.
44 . The method of claim 43 , wherein the risk of relapsed or refractory lymphoma is reduced by about 10%, about 20%, about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, or about 90% as compared to the control subject.
45 . The method of claim 35 , wherein the subject experiences a decreased risk of developing a secondary tumor as compared to a control subject who was administered bortezomib alone.
46 . The method of claim 35 , wherein, prior to co-administration of ibrutinib and bortezomib, the subject exhibits abnormal B-cell function, abnormal B-cell size, abnormal B-cell shape, abnormal B-cell count, fatigue, fever, night sweats, frequent infection, enlarged lymph nodes, paleness, anemia, loss of appetite, weight loss, bone or joint pain, headaches, or petechie.
47 . The method of claim 35 , wherein the first amount of ibrutinib is about 300 mg per day to about 600 mg per day.
48 . The method of claim 35 , wherein the first amount of ibrutinib is about 420 mg per day.
49 . The method of claim 35 , wherein ibrutinib is administered once per day.
50 . The method of claim 35 , wherein ibrutinib is administered orally.
51 . The method of claim 35 , wherein ibrutinib is administered orally once per day.
52 . The method of claim 35 , wherein about 420 mg of ibrutinib is administered orally once per day.
53 . The method of claim 35 , wherein bortezomib is administered intravenously.
