| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of HuMax-CD20 in patients with B-cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (B-CLL) who have failed fludarabine and alemtuzumab; Secondary Objective: To determine the safety of HuMax-CD20 (ofatumumab) To determine the host immune response to HuMax-CD20 (ofatumumab) To determine the pharmacokinetic profile of HuMax-CD20 (ofatumumab) ;Primary end point(s): Objective response as measured over a 24 week period from start of treatment assessed by an Independent endpoints Review Committee (IRC), according to the NCIWG guidelines. | — |
