Brief Summary
Clinical and pharmacokinetic data suggest that the effect of rituximab could be improved by prolonged exposure to the drug. To test for this hypothesis we performed a prospective randomized trial of rituximab maintenance therapy versus observation in patients (pts) with aggressive CD20+ B-cell lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma.
