New treatment option for Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma
Official title Maintenance Obinutuzumab in Treating Patients With Central Nervous System Lymphoma Who Have Achieved a Complete or Partial Response
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06175000
What this study is testing
What is Obinutuzumab?
Obinutuzumab is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for primary central nervous system lymphoma.
Also referred to as Anti-CD20 Monoclonal Antibody R7159, GA-101.
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
- This randomized phase II trial studies how well obinutuzumab works as maintenance treatment in patients with central nervous system lymphoma who have achieved the disappearance of all signs of cancer in response to treatment (complete response) or a decrease in the size of a tumor, or in the extent of cancer in the body, in response to treatment (partial response). Immunotherapy with obinutuzumab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- Which group you join is decided by chance.
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
