Study Summary

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as epratuzumab and rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Giving epratuzumab and rituximab together may be more effective in treating follicular non-Hodgkin lymphoma. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving epratuzumab together with rituximab works in treating patients with previously untreated follicular non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Primary Outcome

Overall response is defined as achievement of a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as defined by the Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma. CR: complete disappearance of all detectable disease PR: \>=50% decrease in the sum of the product of diameters of indicator lesions

Interventions

  • BIOLOGICAL rituximab
  • BIOLOGICAL epratuzumab
