Study Summary

This trial will compare two different monoclonal antibody regimens to see which is more effective in treating patients with relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin's lymphoma who have measurable disease and less than 5,000 tumor cells/mm^3 in their blood. They must have had prior treatments like radiotherapy or chemotherapy. People living outside the US, with a history of other lymphoproliferative disorders, active cancers, or any cancer within the last five years (except certain skin cancers) cannot join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing two different monoclonal antibody therapies to see which one is more effective in treating non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that has either returned after treatment or hasn't responded to previous treatments. It's a phase II trial where patients are randomly assigned to receive one of the two regimens.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Monoclonal antibodies may cause side effects such as allergic reactions at the infusion site, fever, chills, weakness, nausea, vomiting and can potentially harm normal cells while targeting cancer cells.
