Biological: veltuzumab
Registration Number

Lead Sponsor
Gilead Sciences
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if a subcutaneous (SC) dosing schedule of veltuzumab can be established in NHL or CLL patients and to confirm the safety and efficacy of veltuzumab that was previously established when administered intravenously.

Detailed Description

The first study of veltuzumab given IV weekly in NHL patients (IM-T-hA20-01) has shown excellent tolerability and even efficacy at weekly intravenous doses as low as 80-120 mg/m2 over 4 consecutive weeks. These clinical results confirm experiments laboratory studies. Laboratory studies using Veltuzumab administered subcutaneously showed potent activity based on B-cell depletion. The current study's goal is to determine if a subcutaneous (SC) dosing schedule of veltuzumab can be established in patients with NHL or CLL
