Diagnosis B-cell NHL: Burkitt lymphoma, Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma, Follicular Lymphoma, Mantle Cell Lymphoma, Marginal Zone Lymphoma, Transformed Follicular Lymphoma, Richter syndrome, and CD20+ Hodgkin Lymphoma.
Disease Status Primary Induction Failure, 1st, 2nd or 3rd relapse/progression having attained a CR, PR, or stable disease post reinduction therapy.
Performance Level Patients must have a performance status ≥ 50%. Use Karnofsky for patients \> 16 years of age and Lansky for patients less than or equal to 16 years of age. See Appendix I for performance score.
Life Expectancy Patients must have a life expectancy of \> 6 weeks.
Prior Therapy Patients must have fully recovered from the acute toxic effects of all prior chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiotherapy prior to entering this study.
1. Myelosuppressive chemotherapy: Must not have received within 2 weeks of entry onto this study (4 weeks if prior nitrosourea).
2. Biologic (anti-neoplastic agent): At least 7 days since the completion of therapy with a biologic agent.
