Recruiting PHASE2 Recurrent Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma

New treatment option for Recurrent Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma

Official title Odronextamab for the Treatment of Relapsed and Refractory Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma Before and After Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell Therapy

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06854159

What this study is testing

What is Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell Therapy?

Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell Therapy is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for recurrent diffuse large b-cell lymphoma.

Also referred to as CAR T Infusion, CAR T Therapy.

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 phase II trial tests how well odronextamab works before and after standard of care (SOC) chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy in treating patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). CAR-T cell therapy is the SOC treatment most patients receive when other treatments have failed.
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
  • Time commitment: about 2 years
