Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Alternating treatment with more than one drug may kill more cancer cells

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of fludarabine alternating with cyclophosphamide in treating patients who have previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Determine the rate and duration of complete and partial remissions in patients with previously untreated B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia after treatment with alternating courses of fludarabine and cyclophosphamide II Monitor and assess toxicity of this regimen in these patients III Utilize molecular genetic studies and flow cytometry on peripheral blood cells from patients achieving complete remission by conventional criteria IV Apply FISH techniques using probes to chromosomes 12 and 13 as prognostic factors for time to progression and overall survival of these patients

OUTLINE Patients receive alternating courses of fludarabine and cyclophosphamide Fludarabine is administered IV over 10-30 minutes on days 1-5 of courses 1 3 and 5 Cyclophosphamide is administered IV over 30-60 minutes on day 1 of courses 2 4 and 6 Treatment repeats every 4 weeks Patients achieving clinical complete remission CCR after 6 courses of chemotherapy receive 2 additional courses one course of each drug Patients achieving partial remission after 6 courses of chemotherapy also receive 2 additional courses If these patients then achieve CCR they receive another 2 courses Patients are followed every 3 months
