Recruiting PHASE2 Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL)

Tests treatment safety and results for Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL)

Official title Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Pirtobrutinib With Rituximab in Patients With Mantle Cell Lymphoma

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07285590

What this study is testing

What is Pirtobrutinib and rituximab?

Pirtobrutinib and rituximab is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for mantle cell lymphoma (mcl).

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 multicenter, international, open-label, single-arm phase II clinical trial designed to evaluate the activity and safety of a combination therapy with pirtobrutinib and rituximab (P-R) in treatment-naïve adult patients diagnosed with indolent clinical forms of Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL). The study applies a Simon's two-stage design, with an interim analysis after the first 16 patients to determine continuation based on complete remission rate (CRR) after 6 cycles.
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
  • Which group you join is decided by chance.
