Measure
Everolimus and Rituximab
Everolimus daily for one year and IV rituximab four times during that year. Everolimus: The initial dose of everolimus will be 2.5mg orally daily for a total of one year to maintain a target trough concentration between 3-15 ng/mL. Previously the study allowed for starting doses of 5mg and 10mg; the starting dose was reduced in subsequent amendments due to a high incidence of dose reductions. 2.5mg was the most frequent daily dose for all patients, and the entire population was analyzed as one arm. Rituximab: 375mg/m2 day +1 and then every 90 days for 1 year (a total of 4 infusions)
