Sponsor: Virginia Commonwealth University
ClinicalTrials ID:NCT06846463
This clinical trial is testing the effects of adding the drug zanubrutinib to standard chemotherapy for patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who have certain genetic mutations or are CD5+.

Program Overview
The study aims to see if adding zanubrutinib to the usual chemotherapy can improve treatment outcomes for patients with DLBCL who have specific genetic mutations or are CD5+. The treatment will include zanubrutinib along with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP). Patients will be monitored through imaging tests, and some may have optional minimal residual disease (MRD) testing. The main goal is to see how many patients achieve a complete response, with a secondary goal of evaluating event-free survival at 2 years. Patients will be followed every 3 months for 2 years after treatment, with extended follow-up for up to 5 years.
Description
This study is designed to evaluate the effects of adding zanubrutinib to the standard chemotherapy regimen for patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who have specific genetic mutations or are CD5+. The treatment involves combining zanubrutinib with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP). Patients will start zanubrutinib on the second cycle of R-CHOP, with a maximum of 6 cycles of R-CHOP and 5 cycles of zanubrutinib. The number of R-CHOP cycles will be determined by the treating physician, but zanubrutinib cycles will be one less than the total R-CHOP cycles. Patients will be monitored with standard imaging tests, and optional minimal residual disease (MRD) testing may be conducted. The primary goal is to assess the complete response rate, while the secondary goal is to evaluate event-free survival at 2 years. Patients will be followed every 3 months for 2 years after treatment, with an extended follow-up period of up to 5 years.
