Brief Summary: RATIONALE Monoclonal antibodies such as rituximab can block cancer growth in different ways Some find cancer cells and kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them Others interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread Vaccines made from a persons cancer cells may help the body build an effective immune response to kill cancer cells Colony-stimulating factors such as GM-CSF may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood Giving rituximab together with vaccine therapy and GM-CSF may kill more cancer cells

PURPOSE This phase II trial is studying how well giving rituximab together with vaccine therapy and GM-CSF works in treating patients with indolent B-cell non-Hodgkins lymphoma
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the efficacy of immunotherapy comprising rituximab autologous immunoglobulin idiotype-KLH conjugate vaccine FavId and sargramostim GM-CSF in terms of response rate partial and complete and event-free survival in patients with indolent B-cell non-Hodgkins lymphoma
Determine the safety of this regimen in these patients
Evaluate development of an immune response in patients treated with this regimen

OUTLINE This is an open-label multicenter study

Induction therapy Patients receive rituximab IV over 2-4 hours once weekly for 4 weeks Patients are evaluated for response at month 3 Patients with responding or stable disease proceed to maintenance therapy Patients with progressive disease are removed from study
Maintenance therapy Patients receive rituximab as in induction therapy in months 7 13 and 19 Patients also receive autologous immunoglobulin idiotype-KLH conjugate vaccine FavId subcutaneously SC once on day 1 and sargramostim GM-CSF SC once daily on days 1-4 in months 4-6 8-11 14 16 18 20 22 and 24 Patients with continued response after completing 2 years of therapy may continue to receive FavId and GM-CSF once every 3 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

After completion of study treatment patients are followed periodically

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 56 patients will be accrued for this study
