Summary

This 2 arm study will compare the efficacy and safety of the standard chemotherapy of the East German Study Group for Hematology and Oncology versus standard chemotherapy plus MabThera (375mg/m2 iv, once monthly for 8 cycles) in patients with indolent non-Hodgkin's and mantle cell lymphoma. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
