Treatment of Relapsed or Chemotherapy Refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia or Indolent B Cell Lymphoma Using Autologous T Cells Genetically Targeted to the B Cell Specific Antigen CD19

Plain-language summary
RATIONALE: Using T cells from the patient that have been treated in the laboratory may help the body build an effective immune response to kill cancer cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving laboratory-treated T cells together with cyclophosphamide may kill more cancer cells.
PURPOSE: This is a two-stage protocol, consisting of a single-institution phase I safety study and multi-institution phase IIa extension study.

Inclusion:
• Patients must have the following CD19+ B cell leukemia or lymphoma either with relapsed or chemotherapy-refractory disease or with evidence of residual disease following therapy.
In all cases, patient's disease must be confirmed at MSKCC.
* CLL: Patients must have a diagnosis of CLL as evidenced by flow cytometry, bone marrow histology, and/or cytogenetics.
* Other low grade B-cell neoplasms are eligible for study, such as small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), follicular lymphoma, Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, hairy cell leukemia, marginal zone lymphomas, and mantle cell lymphomas.
