Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Monoclonal antibodies such as 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

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining pentostatin and rituximab in treating patients who have non-Hodgkins lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the response rate in patients with low-grade B-cell non-Hodgkins lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia treated with pentostatin and rituximab
Determine the duration of response median time to progression and survival of patients treated with this regimen
Determine the safety of this regimen in these patients

OUTLINE This is a multicenter study

Patients receive rituximab IV alone on day 1 of course 1 only Patients then receive rituximab IV and pentostatin IV on days 8 15 and 22 An additional course with both drugs is administered on days 36 43 and 50 Patients with progressive disease or a complete response receive no further treatment Patients with responsive disease but less than a complete response receive one additional course of therapy as above

Patients are followed every 3 months

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 50 non-Hodgkins lymphoma and 50 chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients will be accrued for this study
