Study Type: Interventional
Official Title: Phase II Trial Ofatumumab for Initial Systemic Treatment of Indolent B-cell Lymphoma
Brief Summary: Ofatumumab is a drug that works by attaching to the CD20 molecule found on the surface of cancerous B cells, and then triggering the death of those cells. It is approved by the FDA for treatment of another B-cell cancer, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and also has evidence of success in people who's B-cell lymphomas have relapsed after initial treatments. In this research study we are looking to see if ofatumumab is effective and safe in treating previously untreated B-cell NHL.
Detailed Summary:
- Participants will receive ofatumumab once a week for 8 weeks by intravenous infusion (Days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, 36, 43, and 50).
- Participants will be seen weekly during the 8 week treatment period and will have the following tests and procedures performed: Blood tests, performance status and physical examination.

Current Primary Outcome: Efficacy: Complete Response Rate (CRR) [ Time Frame: 1-month post-treatment ]
Evaluate clinical efficacy of ofatumumab in previously untreated indolent B-cell lymphomas, as measured by complete response rate (CRR).
Complete response = all previously enlarged fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-avid or positron emission tomography (PET)-positive lymph nodes regressed to normal size (<=1.5 cm in greatest diameter)
Original Primary Outcome: Efficacy [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
Current Secondary Outcome:
- Overall Response Rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: 1-month post-treatment ]
Evaluate clinical efficacy of ofatumumab in previously untreated indolent B-cell lymphomas, as measured by overall response rate (ORR).
Overall response = Complete response (CR) + Partial response (PR) CR = all previously enlarged fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-avid or positron emission tomography (PET)-positive lymph nodes regressed to normal size (<=1.5cm in greatest diameter) PR = >=50% decrease in SPD of up to six largest dominant masses, no increase in size of other nodes; FDG avid or PET positive before therapy, one or more nodes PET positive at previously involved site, or variably FDG avid or PET negative with regression at CT
- Progression-free Survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: 12 months ]Percentage of patients with progression-free survival during 12 months post-treatment progression-free survival: patients live with the disease, but it does not get worse
- Toxicity: Infusion Reactions, Grade 3-4 Infections, and Neutropenia [ Time Frame: 2 years ]Evaluate safety of ofatumumab monotherapy in this patient population Toxicities are graded 1 (mild), 2 (moderate), 3 (severe), and 4 (life-threatening)
Original Secondary Outcome:
- Safety [ Time Frame: 2 years ]Evaluate safety of ofatumumab monotherapy in this patient population
- Pharmacodynamics [ Time Frame: 2 years ]Evaluate pharmacodynamics of B cell depletion
- Neutropenia [ Time Frame: 2 years ]Evaluate the incidence and duration of neutropenia
- Hypogammaglobulinemia [ Time Frame: 2 years ]Estimate incidence, severity and duration of hypogammaglobulinemia
