Study Summary

This trial evaluates a combination of treatments to treat high-risk B-cell lymphoma. It uses a monoclonal antibody and drugs to kill cancer cells and reduce inflammation.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with untreated high-risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, confirmed by specific criteria. Participants must have measurable disease, be in relatively good health (ECOG <=2), and have a life expectancy of at least 6 months. They should not have had certain previous treatments or conditions that could affect the study results.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests loncastuximab tesirine and rituximab followed by DA-EPOCH-R chemotherapy to see if it's more effective for treating high-risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma than standard therapies. It combines targeted therapy with traditional chemotherapy.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions to monoclonal antibodies like infusion reactions, organ inflammation from targeted therapy drugs, common chemo side effects such as nausea, hair loss, fatigue, increased infection risk due to lowered immunity, and blood-related issues.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (Lonca-R, DA-EPOCH-R)Experimental Treatment7 Interventions
Patients receive rituximab IV, loncastuximab tesirine IV, etoposide IV, doxorubicin IV, vincristine IV, prednisone PO, and cyclophosphamide IV on study. Patients also undergo collection of blood samples and bone marrow aspiration and biopsy at screening and CT or PET/CT at screening, throughout the study, and during follow up.
