Study Summary

This is a single center, open label, single arm phase II clinical trial. The objective of this study is to assess the feasibility and efficacy of zanubrutinib combined with venetoclax and Rituximab in patients with previously untreated follicular lymphoma (FL) .

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Inclusion Criteria:

  • A diagnosis of follicular lymphoma (grades 1, 2, or 3a), untreated

  • Stage II, III, or IV disease

  • Able and willing to provide written informed consent and to comply with the studyprotocol

  • at least one measurable disease

  • Must be in need of therapy as evidenced by at least one of the following criteria:

  • Presence of at least one B symptom:

  • Fever (> 38 Celsius [C]) not due to infectious etiology

  • Night sweats

  • Weight loss > 10% in the past 6 months

  • Fatigue due to lymphoma

  • Splenomegaly (> 13 cm)

  • Compression syndrome (ureteral, orbital, gastrointestinal)

  • Any of the following cytopenias, due to lymphoma:

  • Hemoglobin ≤ 10 g/dL

  • Platelets ≤ 100 x 10^9/L

  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) < 1.5 x 10^9/L

  • Pleural or peritoneal effusion

  • Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) > upper limit of normal (ULN) or beta (B)2 microglobulin > ULN

  • Other lymphoma-mediated symptoms as determined by the treating physician

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • ECOG≤ 2

  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) > 1.0 x 10^9/L

  • Platelet count > 50 x 10^9/L

  • Prothrombin time (PT)/international normal ratio (INR) < 1.5 x (upper limit ofnormal) ULN and partial thromboplastin time (PTT) (activated partial thromboplastintime [aPTT]) < 1.5 x ULN (unless abnormalities are unrelated to coagulopathy orbleeding disorder). When treated with warfarin or other vitamin K antagonists, thenINR ≤ 3.0)

  • Serum aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) < 3 x upper limitof normal (ULN)

  • Creatinine clearance > 30 ml/min calculated by modified Cockcroft-Gault formula

  • Bilirubin < 1.5 x ULN unless bilirubin is due to Gilbert's syndrome, documentedliver involvement with lymphoma, or of non-hepatic origin, in which case bilirubinshould not exceed 3 g/dL

  • Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum (beta-human chorionicgonadotropin [B-hCG]) pregnancy test at screening. Women who are pregnant orbreastfeeding are ineligible for this study

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Known active central nervous system lymphoma or leptomeningeal disease

  • Follicular lymphoma with evidence of diffuse large B-cell transformation

  • Grade 3b follicular lymphoma

  • Any prior history of other malignancy besides follicular lymphoma

  • History of severe allergic or anaphylactic reactions to monoclonal antibody therapy

  • Patients who have undergone major surgery within 14 days

  • The researchers believe that it is not advisable for the participant to take part inthis trial.

Study Description

Follicular lymphoma (FL)is the most common inert non Hodgkin's lymphoma (iNHL). Their natural courses are slow but highly variable. The standard first-line treatment of advanced FL is based on rituximab. Whether combined with chemotherapy or not, it can induce lasting remission, but it is usually incurable. Although the first-line immunochemotherapy regimen has high efficacy, it also has high toxicity. Cytotoxic chemotherapy is related to many side effects, including bone marrow suppression and immunosuppression, gastrointestinal and cardiac toxicity, neurotoxicity and the occurrence of secondary tumors. About 20% of FL patients relapse within 2 years after first-line chemotherapy. The overall prognosis of these patients is poor. This clinical trial aims to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of free-chemotherapy regimen (zanubrutinib combined with venetoclax and Rituximab) in patients with previously untreated follicular lymphoma.
