Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy such as fludarabine work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Monoclonal antibodies such as alemtuzumab and rituximab can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells Combining chemotherapy with monoclonal antibody therapy may kill more cancer cells It is not yet known whether fludarabine is more effective when combined with alemtuzumab or with rituximab in treating chronic lymphocytic leukemia

PURPOSE Randomized phase II trial to compare the effectiveness of combining fludarabine with either alemtuzumab or rituximab in treating patients who have refractory or relapsed B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Compare the complete response rate in patients with refractory or relapsed B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia treated with fludarabine and alemtuzumab vs fludarabine and rituximab

Secondary

Compare the overall response rate in patients treated with these regimens
Compare 1-year survival of patients treated with these regimens
Compare time to progression in patients treated with these regimens
Compare duration of response in patients treated with these regimens
Compare the adverse event profile of these regimens in these patients
Compare the molecular response rate in patients treated with these regimens
Compare lymphocyte and lymphocyte subset recovery CD3 CD3CD4 CD3CD8 CD20 in patients treated with these regimens
Compare the time to complete response in patients treated with these regimens
Compare the rate of cytomegalovirus reactivation and time to reactivation in patients treated with these regimens

OUTLINE This is a randomized open-label multicenter study Patients are stratified according to prior treatment with fludarabine yes vs no Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms

Arm I Patients receive fludarabine IV over 30 minutes on days 1-5 At least 30 minutes before fludarabine administration patients receive alemtuzumab subcutaneously SC on days 1-5
Arm II Patients receive fludarabine as in arm I At least 30 minutes before fludarabine administration patients receive rituximab IV on days 1 and 4 of course 1 and on day 1 only in subsequent courses

In both arms treatment repeats every 28 days for 4-6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity An interim assessment is performed during course 4 Patients achieving a partial response or stable disease receive 2 additional courses of therapy for a total of 6 courses Patients achieving a complete response CR do not receive further treatment beyond CR

Patients are followed weekly for 2 months monthly for 6 months every 2 months for 6 months and then every 6 months for 1 year

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 150 patients 75 per treatment arm will be accrued for this study
