Study Summary

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab and alemtuzumab, 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 rituximab together with alemtuzumab may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying two different doses of rituximab to compare how well they work when given together with alemtuzumab in treating older patients with progressive chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Primary Outcome

Response was evaluated using NCI-WG96 criteria. A CR requires all of the following for \>= 2 months: * Absence of lymphadenopathy \> 1 cm in diameter by physical examination * No hepatomegaly or splenomegaly on physical exam * No constitutional symptoms * Normal complete blood count (CBC) * Patients achieving a clinical CR with negative CT scan after 2 cycles of therapy are re-evaluated using immunohistochemical examination of bone marrow biopsy for residual CLL cells. Patients with no evidenc

Interventions

  • BIOLOGICAL rituximab
  • BIOLOGICAL alemtuzumab
