Program Overview
This study is exploring a new treatment for aggressive blood cancers, such as Non-Hodgkin lymphomas, that are hard to treat or have come back after treatment. The trial will test the safety of a drug called VIP152, used with other medications, to see if it can help control these cancers. Participants will receive the treatment in cycles, with regular check-ups and tests to monitor their health and the treatment's effects.
Description
This study is designed to find better treatments for blood cancers like Non-Hodgkin lymphomas that have returned or are resistant to current therapies. The trial will test a combination of drugs, including VIP152, venetoclax, and prednisone, to see if they can effectively target cancer cells and improve patient outcomes.
Participants will go through a screening process, including physical exams, scans, and blood tests, to ensure they meet the study criteria. The treatment will be given in 21-day cycles, with two oral medications taken at home and VIP152 administered at the clinic. Participants will also receive an injection on the 11th day of each cycle, followed by a rest period.
The study aims to determine the safest and most effective dose of the drug combination and to evaluate how well it works in shrinking tumors. Participants will be closely monitored throughout the study, with follow-up visits for up to five years to track their progress and health.
