ClinicalTrials ID:NCT02227251

This clinical trial is testing the drug Selinexor in patients with Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) that has returned or is not responding to treatment. The study aims to find out if Selinexor can help these patients when other treatments have not worked.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

This study is exploring the use of Selinexor, a drug taken by mouth, in patients with Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) that has come back or is not responding to other treatments. The trial is divided into two parts. In the first part, all participants will receive a fixed dose of Selinexor. In the second part, participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of two different doses of Selinexor. The study will monitor participants until their disease progresses or they can no longer tolerate the treatment.

Description

This clinical trial is testing Selinexor, a drug that works by blocking certain proteins in cancer cells, in patients with Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) that has returned or is not responding to treatment. The study is open-label, meaning both the researchers and participants know what treatment is being given. It is conducted in two parts:

  • Part 1: All participants will receive a 60 mg dose of Selinexor. The study will include 130 participants who have no other treatment options that have shown benefits. Participants will continue taking Selinexor until their disease worsens or they experience intolerable side effects.

  • Part 2: Approximately 110 participants will be divided into two groups. One group will receive a 40 mg dose, and the other will receive a 60 mg dose of Selinexor. Participants will be grouped based on whether they have had a stem cell transplant before. The study will continue until the disease progresses or the participant can no longer tolerate the treatment.

Participants will be closely monitored throughout the study to assess the drug's effectiveness and any side effects.
