Summary

This phase II trial studies the side effects of ex vivo-activated autologous lymph node lymphocytes infusion and to see how well they work in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Biological therapies, such as ex vivo-activated autologous lymph node lymphocytes, use substances made from living organisms that may stimulate or suppress the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • All patients must have a diagnosis of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) by immunophenotyping and flow cytometry analysis of blood or bone marrow
  • Patients must meet criteria for treatment based on the criteria proposed by National Cancer Institute (NCI)-sponsored CLL Working Group to include at least one of the following:
  • Weight loss of more than 10% over the preceding 6 months; or
  • Extreme fatigue attributable to progressive disease; or
  • Fever or night sweats without evidence of infection; or
  • Worsening anemia (Rai stage Ill) or thrombocytopenia (Rai stage IV); or
  • Massive lymphadenopathy (> 10 cm) or rapidly progressive lymphocytosis (lymphocyte doubling time 60%
  • Calculated creatinine clearance (by Cockcroft-Gault) of > 50 ml/min
  • Patients must not have untreated or uncontrolled life-threatening infection
  • Patients must sign informed consent

Exclusion Criteria

  • Receipt of glucocorticoids (with the exception of inhaled glucocorticoid steroids for the use of allergic rhinitis or pulmonary disease) within 2 weeks of registration
  • Autoimmune disease related to CLL, e.g., idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) or autoimmune hemolytic anemia, is permitted if not requiring active treatment
