Summary

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as alemtuzumab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well alemtuzumab works in treating patients with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia in partial remission or complete remission.
