NCT00010192

Brief Summary

Monoclonal antibodies such as rituximab can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Interleukin-2 may stimulate a person's white blood cells to kill cancer cells. Combining rituximab with interleukin-2 may kill more cancer cells. Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of rituximab plus interleukin-2 in treating patients who have hematologic cancer.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • MTD defined as the dose preceding that at which at least 2 of 6 patients experience DLT using NCI CTC version 2.0

    Data collected will be descriptive and provide limited estimates of variability given the small sample sizes at each dose level.

    2 weeks

Study Arms (1)

Treatment (rituximab and aldesleukin)

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients receive rituximab IV on days 1, 8, 15, and 22. Patients then receive low-dose aldesleukin SC on days 29-39, 43-53, 57-67, and 71-81, and intermediate-dose aldesleukin SC on days 40-42, 54-56, 68-70, and 82-84.
