Brief Summary: RATIONALE Monoclonal antibodies such as rituximab can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells Interleukin-2 may stimulate a persons white blood cells to kill cancer cells Combining rituximab with interleukin-2 may kill more cancer cells

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining rituximab with interleukin-2 in treating patients who have relapsed or refractory intermediate- or high-grade non-Hodgkins lymphoma
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the clinical efficacy of rituximab and interleukin-2 in patients with relapsed or refractory intermediate- or high-grade non-Hodgkins lymphoma
Determine the 2-year progression-free survival of patients treated with this regimen
Determine the safety of this regimen in these patients
Correlate response with natural killer cell numbers and rituximab interleukin-2 IL-2 and soluble IL-2 receptor levels in patients treated with this regimen

OUTLINE This is an open-label multicenter study

Patients receive rituximab IV once weekly on weeks 1-4 and interleukin-2 subcutaneously 3 times weekly on weeks 2-9 Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Patients are followed every 12 weeks for 2 years

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 50-100 patients will be accrued for this study
