  Purpose

Primary Objectives:

  1. To determine the efficacy of in vivo purging achieved by rituximab in the two groups.
  2. To determine the number of apheresis procedures, total stem cell yield/kg patient body weight and the toxicity profile in the two groups.

Secondary Objectives:

  1. To determine the degree of expression of various adhesion molecules in the 2 groups and correlate with time to engraftment of neutrophils, platelets, and red blood cells, efficacy of stem cell mobilization and purging.
  2. To determine the incidence of disease progression/relapse at 12 months in the two groups.
