Inclusion criteria

• {"criterion_text":"- Confirmed CD20 positive de novo MALT Lymphoma following or being not eligible for local therapy (including surgery, radiotherapy) and antibiotics for H. pylori-positive gastric lymphoma arisen at any extranodal site OR Confirmed CD20 positive de novo splenic MZL following or not being eligible for local therapy (including surgery and antiviral therapy for Hepatitis C Virus) with symptomatic disease OR Confirmed CD20 positive de novo nodal MZL Tissue diagnostic procedures must be performed within 12 months prior to study entry and have to include diagnostics by a reference pathology center. Biopsy material from an excisional or core biopsy must be submitted for retrospective central confirmation. Tissue samples dated > 12 months prior to informed consent can be accepted only if tissue material is available for retrospective confirmation, if there is no clinical indication for transformation of disease, and if the request for additional biopsy would be unethical treatment of the patient. In patients with splenic MZL without splenic tissue available for histologic review, the diagnosis may be confirmed by the presence of splenomegaly and typical morphologic and immunophenotypic findings in the blood and bone marrow. Bone marrow must be submitted for retrospective central confirmation."}
