Recruiting PHASE3 Early Stage Follicular Lymphoma WHO Grade 1/2 or 3a

New treatment option for Early Stage Follicular Lymphoma WHO Grade 1/2 or 3a

Official title Early Stage Follicular LymphOma and RadioTherapy PLUS Anti-CD20 Antibody

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05045664

What this study is testing

What is Standard?

Standard is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for early stage follicular lymphoma who grade 1/2 or 3a.

Also referred to as Rituximab.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
The MIR study proved the effect of Rituximab in combination with a localized irradiation given in a standard dose. Together with the TROG 99.03 trial, this led to the recommendation of using this combined approach in early stage nodal follicular lymphoma.
  • Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
