Brief Summary
Patients undergo chemotherapy until remission is obtained, or disease has been stable for two cycles of chemotherapy, or progressive disease develops. Three to six months after completion of chemotherapy, patients who have achieved complete clinical remission or minimal disease status receive a series of 5 injections (given 1-2 months apart) of a vaccine consisting of 0.5 mg autologous tumor-derived immunoglobulin (Id) conjugated to KLH. The vaccine is administered with subcutaneous QS-21 as an immunological adjuvant....

- A single peripheral lymph node of at least 2x2 to 3x3 cm size and accessible for biopsy/harvest.
- Karnofsky status greater than or equal to 70%.
- Life expectancy of greater than 1 year.
