Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage cancer cells It is not yet known if chlorambucil is more effective than radiation therapy in treating follicular lymphoma

PURPOSE Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of chlorambucil with that of radiation therapy in treating patients who have stage III or stage IV follicular lymphoma that has not been previously treated
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Compare the effect of chlorambucil vs involved-field radiotherapy on progression-free survival of patients with previously untreated stage III or IV follicular lymphoma
Compare the complete and partial remission rates and overall survival of patients treated with these regimens
Compare the toxicity of these regimens in these patients
Compare the quality of life of patients treated with these regimens

OUTLINE This is a randomized multicenter study Patients are stratified according to participating center Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms

Arm I Patients receive oral chlorambucil on days 1-5 Treatment repeats every 4 weeks for 6-8 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity
Arm II Patients undergo radiotherapy on days 1 and 3 and days 15 and 17 for split course

Quality of life is assessed at baseline prior to course 3 6 and 8 arm I and then at 4-6 weeks after study

Patients are followed at 4-6 weeks 3-4 months arm I 3 months and 6 months arm II 11 12 15 18 and 21 months and then every 6 months thereafter

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 444 patients 222 per treatment arm will be accrued for this study within 4 years
