* Patients must be informed of the investigational nature of the treatment, results that might be expected, and potential toxicities; they must be able to give informed written consent according to federal and institutional guidelines

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients who have had chemotherapy or radiotherapy within 4 weeks (6 weeks for nitrosoureas or mitomycin C) prior to entering the study or those who have not recovered from adverse events due to agents administered more than 4 weeks earlier
* Patients may not be receiving any other investigational agents
* Patients with known central nervous system (CNS) involvement (brain metastases or carcinomatous meningitis should be excluded from this clinical trial; patients with skull base involvement are eligible for this study
* History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to 5AC or SAHA
* Patients should not have taken sodium valproate for at least 2 weeks prior to enrollment
* Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
* Pregnant women are excluded from this study; breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with 5AC and SAHA
* Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients receiving combination anti-retroviral therapy are excluded from the study
* Patients with chronic active hepatitis B are excluded from the study

主要终点：Maximum tolerated dose of vorinostat and azacitidine, defined as the dose at which less than one-third of patients experience a dose limiting toxicity (i.e., fewer than 2 of 6 patients) · Graded according to the National Cancer Institute/Division of Cancer Treatment Common Toxicity Criteria. · Day 28；Precision of the estimated dose-response curve based on induction of lytically replicated viral particles in the plasma following treatment · A non-parametric and a parametric approach will be used. The non-parametric approach will entail averaging the biologic effects from the patients at each time point, plotting them versus dose, and connecting the points to get the dose-response curve. The parametric approach will use a polynomial regression model with two degrees of freedom for modeling dose. A spline model may also be used. · Up to 16 weeks
次要终点：Pharmacokinetics of vorinostat in patients with locally recurrent and metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma and NK-T cell nasal lymphoma；Proportions of patients with high and low histone acetylation；EBV promoter demethylation as measured in tumor patients with locally recurrent and metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma and NK-T cell nasal lymphoma

• Treatment (azacitidine, vorinostat) · EXPERIMENTAL · Patients receive azacitidine SC on days 1-10 and vorinostat PO BID on days 1-14. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of vorinostat when given together with azacitidine in treating patients with nasopharyngeal cancer or nasal natural killer T-cell lymphoma that has recurred (come back) at or near the same place as the original (primary) tumor, usually after a period of time during which the cancer could not be detected or has spread to other parts of the body. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vorinostat and azacitidine, 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. Vorinostat and azacitidine also may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving vorinostat together with azacitidine may kill more cancer cells.
