Retreatment with yttrium-90 ibritumomab tiuxetan in patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

There is no data on safety and efficacy of a second course of ibritumomab tiuxetan. In this work, data on patients with B-cell NHL who were treated with two courses of ibritumomab tiuxetan were analyzed. Eighteen such patients were analyzed (age: 58 years, 48 - 91), with a median of four prior regimens (1 - 7), stem cell transplantation (n = 5), and radiation therapy (n = 6).
