Study Summary

This trial is testing the safety of combining two new cancer drugs to treat relapsed or refractory B cell lymphoma.

Who is the study for?

They must be in a stable condition, not pregnant or breastfeeding, willing to use effective contraception, and without serious unresolved treatment side effects from previous therapies.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests combining loncastuximab tesirine with venetoclax to treat B cell lymphoma that has come back or hasn't responded to other treatments. The main focus is finding the right dose and checking if this drug combo is safe.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects of these drugs may include fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, low blood cell counts increasing infection risk, liver problems, and allergic reactions. Specific side effects related to the combination are being studied.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Loncastuximab tesirine & venetoclaxExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants will receive a baseline disease assessment via PET/CT in FDG avid lymphomas; CT scan (chest, abdomen, pelvis; inclusion of neck in selected cases). Bome marrow biopsy in selected cases. Premedication includes: Allopurinol (to reduce uric acid) 300mg orally daily starting day -1 and continuing at least until day 7 of each cycle. Dexamethasone (steroid pre-medication) 4mg orally twice daily on day -1, day 1 and day 2 of each cycle. Adequate oral hydration starting on day -1 or -2, defined as 1 - 2 liters of oral intake of liquids in 24 hours Study treatment to be given every 21 days. Loncastuximab tesirine (50 - 150 μg/kg) intravenously (IV) on day 1 of each 21-day cycle Venetoclax (400 - 800 mg) orally, every day on days 1 - 5 of each 21-day cycle. Dose ramp-up on cycle 1 (over days 1 - 5 for target dose 400mg, 1 - 6 for target dose 600mg and 1 - 7 for target dose 800mg

Frequently Asked Questions

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

What is the current capacity of this research endeavor?

"That is correct. The clinicaltrials.gov page for this trial reveals that participant recruitment began on September 1st 2022, with the most recent update occurring in May of 2023. At present, 36 participants are being sought from a single site."

Answered by AI

Has additional research been conducted on Loncastuximab tesirine?

"At the moment, there are 29 Phase 3 trials and a total of 225 live studies assessing Loncastuximab tesirine. The majority of these investigations are close to Suzhou, Jiangsu; however, in all there exists 7341 sites that have active research on this drug."

Answered by AI

What is Loncastuximab tesirine routinely prescribed for?

"Loncastuximab tesirine is often used to treat refractory large b-cell lymphoma, as well as patients with prior ≥2 lines of systemic therapy, small lymphocytic leukemia and chronic lymphocytic leukemias."

Answered by AI

Has Loncastuximab tesirine obtained the endorsement of official regulatory bodies?

"Given its Phase 1 designation, Loncastuximab tesirine's safety has been rated as a measly "1" due to limited data available on both efficacy and security."

Answered by AI

What results are expected from this trial's implementation?

"This medical trial will evaluate the dose-limiting toxicities of loncastuximab tesirine and venetoclax over a 6 week period. The secondary objectives consist primarily of an overall response rate (ORR) based on complete or partial response, duration of response (DOR), and ORR as assessed by revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma."

Answered by AI

Are there opportunities to join the trial for those seeking treatment?

"Available information indicates that recruiting for this trial is still ongoing. The study was first published on September 1st 2022 and subsequently modified on May 20th of the same year."
