Chemotherapy, Total-Body Irradiation, Rituximab, and Donor Stem Cell Transplant in Treating Patients With B-Cell Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma or Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

Phase 2

Completed

Conditions: Lymphoma
Leukemia

Interventions: Biological: anti-thymocyte globulin
Biological: filgrastim
Biological: graft-versus-tumor induction therapy
Biological: rituximab
Drug: cyclophosphamide
Drug: cyclosporine
Drug: fludarabine phosphate
Drug: mycophenolate mofetil
Procedure: nonmyeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
Radiation: total-body irradiation

Registration Number: NCT00425802

Lead Sponsor: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center

Brief Summary: RATIONALE: Giving low doses of chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a donor stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It also helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. Also, monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can find cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving rituximab before transplant and cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil after transplant may stop this from happening.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well giving chemotherapy and radiation therapy together with rituximab and donor stem cell transplant works in treating patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

treatment	anti-thymocyte globulin	This is a phase 2 study of a treatment regimen consisting of a non-myeloablative (NMA) conditioning regimen incorporating low dose chemotherapy and low dose radiation as well as peri-transplant Rituximab and the transplantation of peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) or bone marrow if PBSC collection not possible from an HLA compatible related or unrelated donor in patients with B cell lymphoid malignancies including diffuse large cell (DLC) and mantle cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), indolent B cell NHL, or chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).
