        Response.Buffer = True
        Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache)

It looks like you are not saving the PDF document into the stream somewhere.

Dim bin() As Byte
Dim stream As MemoryStream = New MemoryStream
documentoPDF.Save(stream, false)
bin = stream.ToArray

Response.ClearHeaders
Response.Clear
Response.Buffer = true
Response.ContentType = "application/pdf"
Response.AddHeader("content-length", bin.Length.ToString)
Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment; filename="""" + txtnombre.Text + ".pdf, "")
Response.OutputStream.Write(bin, 0, bin.Length)
