Monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab, may block cancer growth in different ways by targeting certain cells. Biological therapies, such as TLR9 agonist SD-101, use substances made from living organisms that may stimulate or suppress the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Giving ipilimumab in combination with TLR9 agonist SD-101 and radiation therapy may be a better treatment for B-cell lymphoma. Study objectives are dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and the treatment assessments tumor response and time-to-progression. Cohort 1 dose level is 10 mg ipilimumab, subsequent cohort is 5 or 25 mg ipilimumab. * If 2 out of 6 patients experience a DLT in the first cohort (10 mg ipilimumab), the dose will be de-escalated to 5 mg ("Cohort -1"). * If 2 out of 6 patients experience a DLT at the 5 mg dose level, then the study will be stopped.
