Brief Summary
The study will test the effectiveness (rate of complete remissions, total remission rate and duration of remission) and toxicity of the combined immuno/chemotherapy with subcutaneous cladribine (LITAK®) plus anti-CD20\* antibody rituximab in patients requiring treatment for relapsed hairy cell leukaemia or hairy cell leukaemia variant independent of any previous therapy. CD20\* = cluster of differentiation antigen 20

Study Arms (1)
HCL, 2CdA +/- Rituximab
EXPERIMENTALRisk stratification 1. HCL variant will be treated with cladribine plus rituximab, independent of previous therapy 2. Relapses of HCL will be treated with cladribine plus rituximab, duration of remission of the previous therapy is \< 3 years. 3. All repeated relapses (\> 1st relapse) after previous therapies with purine analogues and/or interferon will be treated with cladribine plus rituximab. Cladribine (LITAK®) 0.14 mg/kg daily Days 8-12 subcutaneous bolus injection Rituximab (Mabthera®) 375 mg/m2 daily Days 1, 8, 15, 22 infusion 4. Relapses of HCL will be treated with cladribine monotherapy, if the duration of remission of the previous therapy is \> 3 years. Cladribine (LITAK®) 0.14 mg/kg daily Days 1-5 subcutaneous bolus injection
Interventions
Cladribine 0.14 mg/kg daily subcutaneous bolus injection Rituximab 375 mg/m² infusion
