Brief Summary:
This randomized phase II trial studies how well ofatumumab and bendamustine hydrochloride with or without bortezomib works in treating patients with untreated follicular non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Monoclonal antibodies, such as ofatumumab, may block cancer growth in different ways by targeting certain cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bendamustine hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Bortezomib may also stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known whether ofatumumab and bendamustine hydrochloride are more effective with bortezomib in treating patients with follicular non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Complete Response Rate [ Time Frame: From date of randomization until patient stops treatment for any reason, up to 484 days post-randomization ]

    A complete response was defined using International Harmonization Project Response Criteria as the complete disappearance of all detectable clinical evidence of disease and disease-related symptoms if present before therapy. If the bone marrow was involved by lymphoma before treatment, the infiltrate must have cleared on repeat bone marrow biopsy.

    The complete response (CR) rate was calculated in newly diagnosed untreated follicular lymphoma patients receiving 6 cycles of ofatumumab-bendamustine (ARM A) and 6 cycles of ofatumumab, bortezomib, and bendamustine (ARM B).

    The complete response rate was calculated as the number of patients with a complete response divided by the number of patients eligible for evaluation.



Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Progression-free Survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: Up to 4 years ]
    Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0), as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions. PFS rates (percentages) at 1, 2, ,3 and 4 years are defined as the percentage of patients who are alive and progression-free at the respective time points. The p-values of the log-rank test will be calculated to compare PFS between the two arms.

  2. The Number of Patients Who Experienced Grade 3+ Hematologic and Non-hematologic Adverse Events at Least Possibly Related to Treatment [ Time Frame: From date of randomization until patient stops treatment for any reason, up to 484 days post-randomization ]
    The number of patients who experienced grade 3+ hematologic and non-hematologic adverse events at least possibly related to treatment assessed according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0


Other Outcome Measures:
  1. Pre-treatment Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP) [ Time Frame: Up to 10 years ]
    The PFS will be compared among the three genotype groups of each SNP using the log-rank tests. A maxtype test will be used by taking the maximum value of the log-rank tests under dominant, recessive, and proportional hazard model. The critical value (or p-value) of the max test will be obtained by a permutation method. No multiple testing adjustment may be applied because of the small sample size.

  2. Immunohistochemical (IHC) Markers [ Time Frame: Up to 10 years ]
    The IHC markers will be correlated with response (using the two-sample t-test) and PFS (using the Cox regression method) data. No multiple testing adjustment will be applied because of the small sample size.

  3. Predictive Value of Fludeoxyglucose-positron-emission Tomography [ Time Frame: Up to 36-38 weeks (6-8 weeks after course 6, day 1 after last course of induction chemotherapy) ]
    The ratio will be correlated with response (using the two-sample t-test) and PFS (using the Cox regression method) data.
