Sponsor: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
ClinicalTrials ID:NCT05025800
This clinical trial is testing a new treatment combination of ALX148, rituximab, and lenalidomide to find the best dose and understand its benefits and side effects for patients with slow-growing and aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Program Overview
The study aims to determine the best dose and potential benefits of combining ALX148, rituximab, and lenalidomide for treating patients with both slow-growing and aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. ALX148 is an immunotherapy that may help the immune system fight cancer, while lenalidomide is a chemotherapy drug that stops cancer cells from growing. Rituximab is a targeted therapy that binds to a protein on B-cells to kill cancer cells. This combination may help control the disease more effectively.
Description
The study is divided into two phases. In Phase I, researchers will determine the safest and most effective dose of ALX148 when combined with rituximab and lenalidomide for patients whose B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma has returned or not responded to previous treatments. In Phase II, the study will evaluate how well this combination works in patients with untreated, high-burden slow-growing B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
Participants will receive ALX148 through an IV on specific days, along with rituximab and lenalidomide, which will be given according to a set schedule. The treatment cycles repeat every 28 days unless the disease progresses or side effects become unacceptable. After completing the treatment, patients will have follow-up visits to monitor their health and the treatment's effects for up to three years.
