Where you'd take part
This study runs at 3 sites. They're the same protocol — you choose where, and that choice sets who your contact draft is addressed to.

Eligibility criteria
Inclusion
Age 18-75 years
No prior therapy for mantle cell lymphoma (MCL)
MCL in need of systemic therapy, and potentially eligible for ASCT as assessed by the treating physician
Documented histological confirmation of MCL by local institutional review
Documented, fludeoxyglucose F-18 (FDG)-avid measurable disease (at least 1 lesion \>= 1.5 cm in diameter) as detected by positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) and as defined and includes measurable nodal and extranodal disease sites, or splenomegaly measuring more than 13 cm in vertical length
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) 0, 1, 2
Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \>= 1000/mm\^3 or \>= 500/mm\^3 if due to lymphomatous marrow or spleen involvement (obtained =\< 30 days prior to registration)
Platelet count \>= 100,000/mm\^3 or \>= 75,000/mm\^3 if due to lymphomatous marrow or spleen involvement (obtained =\< 30 days prior to registration)
Total bilirubin =\< 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) (unless documented Gilbert's syndrome, for which total bilirubin =\< 3 x upper limit of normal \[ULN\] is permitted) (obtained =\< 30 days prior to registration)
Aspartate transaminase (AST) =\< 3 x ULN (obtained =\< 30 days prior to registration)
Prothrombin time (PT)/international normalized ratio (INR) or partial thromboplastin time (PTT) =\< 2 x ULN, unless elevated due to a lupus anticoagulant (obtained =\< 30 days prior to registration)
Calculated creatinine clearance must be \>= 30 ml/min using the Cockcroft-Gault formula (obtained =\< 30 days prior to registration)
Negative pregnancy test done within =\< 14 days prior to registration for women of childbearing potential only
For women of childbearing potential (WOCBP, defined as premenopausal women capable of becoming pregnant): Must agree to use of highly effective method of birth control during study therapy and until 12 months after last dose of study therapy. NOTE: 'Acceptable' methods are not adequate. Highly effective methods are defined by Clinical Trials Facilitation and Coordination Group \[CTFG\] as having a failure rate of \< 1% per year
Men must agree to use barrier contraception starting with the first dose of study therapy and through 180 days after completion of study therapy
Provide informed written consent
Willing to return to enrolling institution for follow-up (during the Active Monitoring Phase of the study)
Hematologic labs must be obtained within =\< 14 days of registration
Willing and able to participate in all required evaluations and procedures in this study protocol
Ability to understand the purpose and risks of the study and provide signed and dated informed consent and authorization to use protected health information
Exclusion
Prior systemic treatment for mantle cell lymphoma. Short course of steroids (=\< 7 days) for symptom management or localized radiation is permissible, as long as measurable disease outside of the radiation field exists
Peripheral neuropathy or neuropathic pain of grade 2 or worse as assessed by the investigator
Prior exposure to bortezomib or a BTK inhibitor
Prior anthracycline exposure unless cumulative prior exposure is under 150 mg per square meter
Requiring anticoagulation with warfarin or equivalent vitamin k antagonist
Uncontrolled AIHA (autoimmune hemolytic anemia) or ITP (idiopathic thrombocytopenia purpura)
Active bleeding or history of bleeding diathesis (e.g. hemophilia or von Willebrand disease)
History of stroke or intracranial hemorrhage within 6 months prior to enrollment
Requires treatment with a strong cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) inhibitor/inducer
Requiring treatment with a proton pump inhibitor. Examples include: dexlansoprazole, esomeprazole, lansoprazole, omeprazole, pantoprazole, rabeprazole, or therapeutic class equivalents
Note: H2-receptor agonists are not exclusionary
History of allergic reactions attributed to acalabrutinib, cytarabine, bortezomib, boron, or any of the other agents administered as part of the therapeutic regimen in this study
Active systemic fungal, bacterial, viral, or other infection that is worsening (defined as increasing signs/symptoms of infection during screening) or, requires intravenous antibiotic therapy
Active or chronic uncontrolled hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection. Patients with positive hepatitis B core antibody positive require negative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) prior to enrollment. Hepatitis B surface antigen positive or PCR positive patients will be excluded. Patients with hepatitis C must have negative hepatitis C virus (HCV) ribonucleic acid (RNA) for inclusion
Co-morbid systemic illnesses or other severe concurrent disease (including major surgery within 2 weeks) which, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study or interfere significantly with the proper assessment of safety and toxicity of the prescribed regimens
Known to be human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive since antiretroviral therapy has a potential for drug interactions with acalabrutinib
Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure or low cardiac ejection fraction (New York Heart Association \[NYHA\] class 3-4 or ejection fraction \[EF\] \< 45%), unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
Receiving any other investigational agent which would be considered as a treatment for the primary neoplasm
Other active malignancy =\< 2 years prior to registration. EXCEPTIONS: Non-melanotic skin cancer localized prostate cancer, or carcinoma-in-situ of the breast or cervix. NOTE: If there is a history or prior malignancy, patients must not be receiving other specific treatment for their cancer
Pregnant and/or breastfeeding
Has difficulty with or is unable to swallow oral medication, or has significant gastrointestinal disease that would limit absorption of oral medication
Presence of a gastrointestinal ulcer diagnosed by endoscopy within 3 months before screening. unless directly due to MCL Involvement by endoscopic or histologic evaluation
Major surgical procedure within 28 days of first dose of study drug. NOTE: If a subject had major surgery, they must have recovered adequately from any toxicity and/or complications from the intervention before the first dose of study drug
Concurrent participation in another therapeutic clinical trial
What this trial measures
- Percentage of Complete Responses to Therapy (Complete Metabolic Response [CMR])29 months
Measured according to Lugano criteria. A success is defined as a CMR as the objective status at the end of treatment. The percentage of successes will be estimated by the number of successes divided by the total number of evaluable patients. 95% confidence intervals for the true success proportion will be calculated according to the approach of Duffy and Santner.
