Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial
Must have
Patients must have histologically or cytologically confirmed primary central nervous system diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Only patients with relapsed or refractory disease are eligible. Patients with PCNSL that is only extracranial will not be eligible.
Ibrutinib must be discontinued 7 days before (when possible) until 7 days after major surgery, and 3 days before (when possible) until 3 days after minor surgery. Thus, patients to be enrolled on an ibrutinib trial must have completed major surgery greater than or equal to 7 days before initiating treatment, and/or must have completed minor surgery greater than or equal to 3 days before initiating treatment.

Study Summary

This trial is studying ibrutinib in combination with TEDDI-R to see how well it works in treating patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma.

Who is the study for?
Adults diagnosed with primary central nervous system diffuse large B-cell lymphoma that has returned or resisted treatment. They must be at least 18 years old, not pregnant or breastfeeding, and have recovered from previous treatments. Participants need to have good organ function and cannot have used certain drugs recently.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the combination of Ibrutinib with a novel immuno-chemotherapy regimen (TEDDI-R) for brain lymphoma. The first phase determines the highest dose patients can tolerate or the dose needed to reach effective levels in spinal fluid without severe side effects.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions related to immune system suppression, such as increased risk of infections, blood disorders, liver problems, heart issues, digestive disturbances due to chemotherapy components and possible allergic reactions.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What potential risks have been associated with TEDDI usage?

"Due to the preliminary nature of this phase 1 trial, we have assigned TEDDI a safety rating of 1. This is because there is limited evidence backing up its efficacy and safety so far."

Answered by AI

What is the predominant use for TEDDI treatments?

"TEDDI is commonly used to treat DLBCL, and has also shown success in treating meningeal leukemia, SCLC and active pauciarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis."
