The participants were followed for an average of 6 months to determine response to therapy.

What was measured

Overall response was determined by the Cheson Response Criteria. Participants with either a complete response (CR), complete response unconfirmed or partial response were considered responders. Less than a partial response was considered a non-response to therapy (i.e., Stable Disease and/or Progressive Disease). Complete response was defined as the disappearance of all signs and symptoms of lymphoma for a period of at least one month. All lymph nodes and nodal masses must have regressed to normal size. Complete response unconfirmed is a residual lymph node mass \> 1.5 cm in greatest transverse diameter that has regressed by \> 75% in sum of the products of the greatest diameters, does not change over the last two treatments, and any biopsies obtained are negative will be considered to be in CR. Partial response is defined as a 50% or greater decrease in the sum of the products of the longest perpendicular diameters of all measured lesions lasting for a period of at least one month.

Analysis population: One participant declined to participate before treatment started, and one participant was not evaluable.

Groups in this outcome

Arm 1-Combination Chemo and Biological Therapy
