Recruiting PHASE2 Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL)

New treatment option for Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL)

Official title A Study of Glofitamab-based Treatment in People With Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06765317

What this study is testing

What is Glofitamab?

Glofitamab is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for diffuse large b cell lymphoma (dlbcl).

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 researchers are doing this study to find out if the study treatment is an effective treatment that causes few or mild side effects in people with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), high-grade B-cell lymphoma (HGBCL), or transformed lymphoma. The treatment being tested in this study is glofitamab, polatuzumab, and obinutuzumab in combination with standard treatment (the combination of rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone, or R-miniCHP).
