NCT00759798

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn more about the characteristics of CLL, including genes and chromosome abnormalities and proteins expressed by the leukemia cells, which may help doctors predict if patients who receive standard treatment (fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab) for the first time will experience a complete remission.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Participants With Complete Remission (CR)

    Complete Response defined by NCI Working Group / International Working Group for CLL criteria as no evidence of disease on physical examination (no adenopathy or organomegaly) or microscopic examination of blood (ALC \<4,000/L) and bone marrow (\<30% lymphocytes, no lymphoid nodules), and recovery of hemoglobin, neutrophil, and platelet counts.

    After 6 months

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients will have a diagnosis of CLL, Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (SLL), or CD20 positive low-grade lymphoproliferative disorder.
  • All patients with untreated Rai stage III-IV are eligible for this protocol. Prior treatment with single-agent rituximab permitted. OR Patients with untreated Rai stage 0-II who meet one or more criteria for active disease as defined by the International Working Group for CLL (IWCLL). Prior treatment with single-agent rituximab permitted.
  • Patients must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-3.
  • Patients must have adequate renal and hepatic function (creatinine \<2mg%, bilirubin \<2mg%). Patients with renal or liver dysfunction due to organ infiltration by lymphocytes may be eligible after discussion with the study chairman.
  • Patients may not receive other concurrent chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or immunotherapy. Localized radiotherapy to an area not compromising bone marrow function does not apply.
  • Patients must be 16 years of age or older.
  • Patients must sign informed consent indicating that they are aware of the investigational nature of this study according to the policies of the MD Anderson Cancer Center Institutional Review Board (MDACC IRB).
