Study on Using Cema-cel for Patients with Large B-Cell Lymphoma in Minimal Residual Disease Remission
Sponsor: Allogene Therapeutics
ClinicalTrials ID:NCT06500273
This clinical trial is testing a new treatment called cema-cel for patients with large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) who have responded to initial therapy but still have minimal residual disease (MRD). The study aims to see if cema-cel can help improve outcomes compared to just monitoring the disease.

Program Overview
This study is for adults with large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) who have completed their first round of standard treatment and have shown a complete or partial response, but still have minimal residual disease (MRD) detected by a special test. The trial will compare the effectiveness and safety of a new treatment called cema-cel, a type of CAR T-cell therapy, against the standard approach of observing the disease without additional treatment. The study is divided into two parts: Part A will test different treatment regimens to find the best one, and Part B will compare the selected regimen with standard observation.
