Study Summary

This trial is testing if combining a pill with CAR T cell therapy can improve ability to kill lymphoma cells without safety issues in DLBCL, FL, and MCL. Participants will be followed up to 5 years.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people with certain B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL, FL, or MCL) who have tried at least two other treatments and are eligible for standard CAR T cell therapy. It's not open to those with active HIV or hepatitis infections, pregnant or breastfeeding individuals, anyone with uncontrolled infections, or patients being treated for another cancer.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the combination of a drug called tazemetostat in pill form followed by standard CAR T cell therapy. The goal is to see if this combo can better target and kill lymphoma cells without greatly increasing risks. Participants will take tazemetostat before and after their CAR T treatment for up to a year.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions related to the immune system attacking normal cells while targeting cancer cells, infection risk due to weakened immunity from the treatment, fatigue, nausea from pills, and potential complications from long-term immune changes.
