Summary

The goal of this clinical research study is to find out if giving a boost of natural killer (NK) cells from a donor combined with Rituxan (rituximab), can help to control disease in patients who have already received an allogeneic stem cell transplant. The safety of this treatment will also be studied. Participants have recurrent chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or lymphoma after non-myeloablative stem cell transplantation.

Primary Objectives:

1.0 To determine the safety of Natural Killer (NK) cells and Rituximab + rhu-Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GMCSF) in patients with persistent or recurrent B-cell lymphoid malignancies after non-myeloablative stem cell transplantation.

2.0 To determine factors associated with response.

Conditions

  • Lymphoma
  • Leukemia
  • Transplantation, Stem Cell
  • Lymphoid Malignancies
  • Disorder Related to Transplantation

Interventions

DRUG

GM-CSF

250 micrograms subcutaneously 3 times a week for 4 weeks starting a day before the administration of Rituximab.

DRUG

Rituximab

375 mg/m\^2 by vein followed by 1000 mg/m\^2 weekly for 3 weeks for a total of 4 doses.

BIOLOGICAL

NK Cell Infusion

NK cells will be infused one week after the fourth dose of Rituximab and GM-CSF.
