What this study is testing

What is Pirtobrutinib?

Pirtobrutinib is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for mantle cell lymphoma.

Also referred to as Jaypirca.

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 is a phase 2, open-label, randomized, multicenter clinical trial in patients with relapsed/refractory mantle cell lymphoma (R/R MCL) who meet the criteria for standard-of-care FDA label for CD19 CAR T-cell therapy with brexucabtagene autoleucel (brexu-cel).
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
  • Which group you join is decided by chance.
