- Progression Free Survival [ Time Frame: participants will be followed for their participation in the trial, an expected average of 5.5 years ]PFS will be calculated from the date of inclusion/randomisation to the following events: the date of progression and the date of death if it occurred earlier. In the absence of progression and death, PFS duration will be censored at the stopping date or the date of last follow-up.
- Response rate [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ]The response rates (CR,VGPR, PR, MR) and overall response rate (CR, VGPR, PR, MR) are evaluated 4 weeks after the end of induction treatment.
- Best response [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ]Best response is determined in the time interval from the start of induction therapy to end of follow-up.
- Time to best response [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ]Time to best response is defined as the time from the start of induction to best response the patient achieves (CR, VGPR, PR, MR).
- Time to first response [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ]Time to first response is defined as the time from the start of induction to first response (MR, PR, VGPR or CR).
- Time to treatment failure [ Time Frame: participants will be followed for their participation in the trial, an expected average of 5.5 years ]Time to treatment failure (TTF) is defined as the time of randomization to discontinuation of therapy for any reason including death from any cause, progression, toxicity or add-on of new anti-cancer therapy. Patients alive without treatment failure are censored at the latest tumor assessment date.
- Remission duration [ Time Frame: participants will be followed for their participation in the trial (from date of response), an expected average of 5 years ]Remission duration will be calculated in patients with response (CR, VGPR, PR, MR) to induction from end of induction to the date of progression, relapse or death from any cause. Patients alive without progression and relapse will be censored at the latest tumor assessment date or the stopping date.
- Cause specific survival (CSS) [ Time Frame: participants will be followed for their participation in the trial, an expected average of 5.5 years ]Cause specific survival is defined as the period from the induction randomization to death from lymphoma or lymphoma related cause; death unrelated to WM is considered as a competing event.
- Overall survival (OS) [ Time Frame: participants will be followed for their participation in the trial, an expected average of 5.5 years] ]Overall survival is defined as the period from the induction randomization to death from any cause. Patients who have not died until the time of the analysis will be censored at their last contact date.

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
Clinicopathological diagnosis of WM as defined by consensus panel one of the Second International Workshop on WM. Pathological diagnosis has to occur before study inclusion and randomization. In addition, pathological specimens have to be sent to the national pathological reference center at study inclusion and randomization. The positivity for CD20 can be assumed from any previous bone marrow immunohistochemistry or flow cytometry analysis performed up to 6 months prior to enrollment. Inclusion in the study will be based on morphological and immunological criteria. Immunophenotyping will be performed in each center and saved locally. Flow cytometry of bone marrow and blood cells will include at least one double staining and assess the expression of the following antigens: surface immunoglobulin, CD19, CD20, CD5, CD10 and CD23. Patients are eligible if tumor cells express the following antigens: CD19, CD20, and if they are negative for CD5, CD10 and CD23 expression. Patients with tumor cells positive for CD5 and/or CD23 and morphologically similar to WM cells may be included after ruling out other low grade B-cell malignancies.
-
Presence of at least one criterion for initiation of therapy, according to the 2nd Workshop on WM:
- Recurrent fever, night sweats, weight loss, fatigue
- Hyperviscosity
- Lymphadenopathy which is either symptomatic or bulky (≥5 cm in maximum diameter)
- Symptomatic hepatomegaly and/or splenomegaly
- Symptomatic organomegaly and/or organ or tissue infiltration
- Peripheral neuropathy due to WM
- Symptomatic cryoglobulinemia
- Cold agglutinin anemia
- IgM related immune hemolytic anemia and/or thrombocytopenia
- Nephropathy related to WM
- Amyloidosis related to WM
- Hemoglobin ≤10g/dL
- Platelet count <100x10^9/L
- Serum monoclonal protein >5g/dL, even with no overt clinical symptoms Cumulative illness rating scale (CIRS) score less than 6
- World Health Organization (WHO)/ECOG performance status 0 to 2.
-
Other criteria:
- Age ≥ than 18 years
- Life expectancy >3 months.
- Baseline platelet count ≥ 50 ×10^9/L, absolute neutrophil count ≥ 0.75×10^9/L (if not due to BM infiltration by the lymphoma).
-
Meet the following pretreatment laboratory criteria at the Screening visit conducted within 28 days of study enrollment:
- ASAT (SGOT): ≤3 times the upper limit of institutional laboratory normal value
- ALAT (SGPT): ≤3 times the upper limit of institutional laboratory normal value
- Total Bilirubin: ≤20 mg/L or 2 times the upper limit of institutional laboratory normal value, unless clearly related to the disease (except if due to Gilbert's syndrome)
- Serum creatinine: ≤ 2mg/dl
- Premenopausal fertile females must agree to use a highly effective method of birth control for the duration of the therapy up to 6 months after end of therapy. A highly effective method of birth control is defined as those which result in a low failure rate (i.e. less than 1% per year) when used consistently and correctly such as implants, injectables, combined oral contraceptives, some IUDs, sexual abstinence or vasectomised partner.
- Men must agree not to father a child for the duration of therapy and 6 months after and must agree to advice a female partner to use a highly effective method of birth control.
- Voluntary written informed consent before performance of any study-related procedure not part of normal medical care, with the understanding that consent may be withdrawn by the subject at any time without prejudice to future medical care.
Exclusion criteria:
- Prior systemic treatment of the WM (plasmapheresis and short- term administration of corticosteroids < 4 weeks administered at a dose equivalent to < 20 mg/day prednisone is allowed)
- Patient with hypersensitivity to dexamethasone.
- Serious medical or psychiatric illness likely to interfere with participation in this clinical study.
- Uncontrolled bacterial, viral or fungal infection
- Active HIV, HBV or HCV infection
- Known interstitial lung disease
- Prior allergic reaction or severe anaphylactic reaction related to humanized or murine monoclonal antibody.
- Central Nervous System involvement by lymphoma
-
Prior history of malignancies unless the subject has been free of the disease for ≥ 5 years. Exceptions include the following:
- Basal cell carcinoma of the skin,
- Squamous cell carcinoma of the skin,
- Carcinoma in situ of the cervix,
- Carcinoma in situ of the breast,
- Incidental histologic finding of prostate cancer (TNM stage of T1a or T1b).

- Unstable angina pectoris, angioplasty, stenting, or myocardial infarction within 6 months
- Clinically significant cardiac arrhythmia that is symptomatic or requires treatment, or asymptomatic sustained ventricular tachycardia.
- Known pericardial disease
- Subjects with ≥ Grade 2 neuropathy.
