Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug in combination with the standard drug therapy for high risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma to see if it is more effective than the standard therapy alone.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with newly diagnosed, high risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Participants must have certain types of this cancer (non-GCB subtype or express specific proteins), be in specific stages, and have a good performance status. They need normal organ function tests and agree to use birth control if applicable. Excluded are pregnant individuals, those with uncontrolled illnesses, HIV on antiretroviral therapy, prior CNS lymphoma involvement, severe lung disease or heart failure.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the effectiveness of parsaclisib with or without polatuzumab vedotin plus standard R-CHOP therapy against R-CHOP alone. Parsaclisib inhibits enzymes for cell growth; polatuzumab delivers chemo directly to cancer cells; R-CHOP includes rituximab and various chemotherapy drugs aimed at stopping cancer spread.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions related to immune system suppression such as increased infection risk, liver enzyme changes indicating potential liver damage, blood disorders like anemia or clotting issues due to bone marrow suppression by chemotherapy drugs, fatigue from treatment burden on the body's resources.

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Arm I (parsaclisib, R-CHOP)Experimental Treatment7 Interventions
Patients receive parsaclisib PO QD on days 1-10 or 1-14, rituximab IV or biosimilar substitute, cyclophosphamide IV over 30 minutes, doxorubicin hydrochloride IV, and vincristine sulfate IV over 15 minutes on day 1. Patients also receive prednisone PO on days 1-5 and pegfilgrastim SC or biosimilar substitute on day 2. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Group II: Arm II (parsaclisib, R-CHOP, polatuzumab vedotin)Active Control8 Interventions
Patients receive parsaclisib PO once daily QD on days 1-10 or 1-14, polatuzumab vedotin IV over 90 minutes, rituximab IV or biosimilar substitute, cyclophosphamide IV over 30 minutes, doxorubicin hydrochloride IV, and vincristine sulfate IV over 15 minutes on day 1. Patients also receive prednisone PO on days 1-5 and pegfilgrastim SC or biosimilar substitute on day 2. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
