Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies such as rituximab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Combining rituximab with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining rituximab with combination chemotherapy in treating patients who have previously untreated non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
