  • Concurrent treatment with other investigational agent or X-ray therapy.
  • Previous chemo- or radiotherapy for any other malignancy, in particular indolent lymphoma.
  • Any psychological, cognitive, familial, sociological or geographical condition that, in the investigator's opinion, compromises the patient's ability to understand the patient information, to give informed consent or to comply with the study protocol.
