NCT00042913

Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies such as epratuzumab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to study the effectiveness of epratuzumab in treating patients who have non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
