  • pleural or peritoneal serous effusions;
  • lactate dehydrogenase elevation.
• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) ≤ 2.
• Adequate hematological function, unless abnormalities due to underlying disease, within 28 days prior to signing informed consent, defined as follows: neutrophils > 1.500/mmc, platelets > 75.000/mmc, hemoglobin > 8,0 g/dL with transfusion independence.
• Capacity and willingness to adhere to study visit schedule and specific protocol procedures.
• Willingness to sign a written informed consent.
• Compliance with effective contraception without interruption, from 28 days before treatment start up (i.e., during the screening phase) to 18 months after treatment discontinuation, agreeing not to donate the semen during treatment and for 18 months after discontinuation (if the patient is male), or to undergo ongoing pregnancy test during the course of the study (if the patient is female).

• Central nervous system or leptomeningeal involvement by lymphoma.
• Major surgery (excluding any lymph node biopsy) within 28 days prior to signing informed consent.
• Seropositivity for HBV or evidence of active infection (HBsAg positivity, or HBsAg negativity with positive anti-HBs/anti-HBc and detectable viral DNA load); if viral load is negative or undetectable, the patient is eligible, provided their HBsAg negativity.
• Positive viral HCV RNA
• Seropositivity for HIV, regardless of viral load.
• Known history of drug induced liver injury, chronic active hepatitis C (HCV), chronic active hepatitis B (HBV), alcoholic liver disease, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, primary biliary cirrhosis, on-going extra-hepatic obstruction caused by cholelithiasis, cirrhosis of the liver or portal hypertension

• Prior history of malignancies, other than follicular lymphoma, unless the patient has been free for at least 10 years (exceptions: localized non-melanoma skin cancer ad carcinoma in situ of the cervix).
• Any of the following laboratory abnormalities: liver enzymes (AST/SGOT and/or ALT/SGPT) > 2.5-fold the upper limit of normal (except of liver involvement by lymphoma); total bilirubin > 1.5 mg/dL (except for patients with known Gilbert's disease or biliary tree compression by lymphoma masses); creatinine clearance < 30 mL/min.
• Uncontrolled intercurrent illness.
• Known hypersensitivity or allergy to murine products or to any of the medicaments under investigation.
• Pregnancy or breastfeeding, or unwillingness to comply with adequate contraception.
• Any serious medical condition, laboratory abnormality or psychiatric illness that would prevent the patient from signing the informed consent or which may place the patient at unacceptable risk if participating in the study.
