NCT00003746

Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet known if giving cladribine once a day is more effective than giving cladribine once a week in patients with hairy cell leukemia. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of cladribine given once a day to cladribine given once a week in treating patients with hairy cell leukemia.
