Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES
I To estimate the response rate and time-to-progression TTP in previously treated patients with low grade non-Hodgkins lymphoma treated with thalidomide
II To evaluate the effect of thalidomide on microvascular density in the bone marrow of patients with low grade cell non-Hodgkins lymphoma
III To evaluate the effects of thalidomide on bFGF levels in serum and urine
