Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:
  • Histologically confirmed follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL)
  • High-risk disease, as defined by any of the following:
  • Relapsed within 6 months after the last treatment

  • Patients may receive chemotherapy after leukapheresis while waiting for CD19-specific T cells to be manufactured
  • Endocrine therapy
