CURRENT SITES CREDENTIALED: Trinity Health SJMH IHA (Brighton, Ann Arbor, Chelsea, Canton), Livonia, Genesys, Sparrow
Eligibility Criteria:
5.1. Disease Related Criteria
a. Participants must have a histologically confirmed diagnosis of Classic Follicular Lymphoma (cFL). cFL was previously categorized as Grade 1-3A per WHO-HAEM4R, but grading of classic FL is no longer mandatory. Please refer to Section 4.1 regarding classification. NOTE: Participants with Follicular Lymphoma with uncommon features (uFL) are eligible, including FL with diffuse growth pattern (dFL). Diagnosis is as per local pathology. Lymphoma FISH is not required. Molecular testing is not required.
b. Participants must not have Follicular Lymphoma with “blastoid” or “large centrocyte” cytological features, or Follicular large B-cell lymphoma (FLBL) (Previously categorized as follicular lymphoma grade 3B).
c. Participants must have low-tumor burden follicular lymphoma defined as:
1. Nodal or extra-nodal tumor mass with diameter less than 7 cm in its greater diameter
2. Involvement of no more than 3 nodal or extra nodal sites with diameter greater than 3 cm.
3. Absence of B symptoms
4. No symptomatic splenomegaly
5. No compression syndrome (ureteral, orbital, gastrointestinal)
6. No pleural or peritoneal serous effusion related to follicular lymphoma Participants must have Ann Arbor stage II, III, or IV follicular lymphoma. Participants with Stage I disease may be included if they do not wish to undergo radiation or are not candidates for radiation. Please refer to Section 4.2 regarding staging classification.
d. Participants must either be experiencing distress due to their disease or would prefer active management of their disease rather than a watch and wait approach.
e. Participants must have staging imaging performed within 49 days prior to registration, as follows. PET-CT baseline scans are preferred. If a baseline PET-CT scan cannot be obtained, CT scans of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis, along with a bone marrow biopsy, are acceptable. If CT scans are used for staging at baseline, a CT scan of the neck is recommended. All measurable dominant lesions must be assessed within 49 days prior to registration (see Section 10.1a.). Tests to assess non-measurable disease must be performed within 49 days prior to registration. All disease must be assessed and documented on the Baseline Tumor Assessment Form. NOTE: if the initial evaluation is insufficient to detect measurable disease, treating investigators may obtain a CT scan with contrast.
f. Participants must have bi-dimensionally measurable disease (at least one lesion with longest diameter >1.5 cm).
5.2. Prior/Concurrent Therapy Criteria
a. Participants must not have had prior systemic therapy for follicular lymphoma. Radiation therapy for a previous diagnosis of early-stage follicular lymphoma is allowed.
5.3. Clinical/Laboratory Criteria
a. Participant must be ≥ 18 years of age at the time of registration.
b. Participant must have Zubrod Performance Status of 0-2 (see Section 10.4).
c. Participant must have a complete medical history and physical exam within 28 days prior to registration.
