Study Summary

This trial is studying a combination of drugs to treat B cell Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The investigators will establish the maximum tolerated dose of the combination and study its efficacy.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, including newly diagnosed and first relapse patients. It's suitable for those who haven't had anthracycline chemotherapy before or have only used non-anthracycline therapy once. Participants must be in good physical condition (ECOG <=1), not pregnant, willing to use contraception, and have a life expectancy over 6 months.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests Selinexor combined with R-CHOP chemotherapy to find the safest dose and see if it's more effective against B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma than standard treatments. The study includes two phases: Phase Ib determines the maximum tolerated dose of Selinexor; Phase II assesses its effectiveness.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Selinexor may cause nausea, vomiting, fatigue, loss of appetite, weight loss, diarrhea or constipation. Chemotherapy side effects can include hair loss, anemia (low red blood cell count), risk of infection due to low white blood cells, bruising or bleeding from low platelets.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (selinexor, RCHOP)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients will receive selinexor PO on days 1, 8, and 15 of a 21 week cycle. RCHOP will be given at standard dosing every 21 days. In the phase 1 part there is dose escalation for Selinexor in a 3+3 design. Treatment will be given for 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients with partial response or better will receive maintenance selinexor PO on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 every 28 days for up to 1 year in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Is this medical study pioneering a new methodology?

"Presently, 259 cities across 28 countries are hosting 48 ongoing clinical trials for Selinexor. According to records, Karyopharm Therapeutics Inc first began testing the efficacy of this drug in 2014 with an inaugural study that included 16 participants and culminated in a successful Phase 1 approval stage. Since then, 29 additional studies have been finalized."

Answered by AI

What are the research objectives of this investigation?

"The primary objective of this trial is to assess the maximum tolerated dose of selinexor when combined with RCHOP chemotherapy. This will be measured by studying if 1/6 or less patients experience a dose limiting toxicity over 2 years from baseline. Secondary goals include measuring overall survival, response rate and change in CRM1/XPO-1 activity expression through immunohistochemistry (IHC) assessments at baseline and 48-72 hours after cycle 1 day 1 of therapy."

Answered by AI

Has research involving Selinexor been conducted previously?

"48 clinical trials are currently being conducted on Selinexor, 4 of which having reached the Phase 3 stage. While the majority of these studies originate from Bethesda, Maryland, 922 sites across the world have been employed to conduct them."

Answered by AI

How many trial participants are there in total?

"Affirmative. The evidence on clinicaltrials.gov ensures that this trial, which started June 20th 2017, is inviting applicants. Approximately 44 individuals need to be recruited between 2 sites for the study's completion."

Answered by AI

Are there opportunities to join this experiment right now?

"The information on clinicaltrials.gov indicates that recruitment for this medical research is ongoing; the trial was initially posted in June 20th 2017 and last revised on January 10 2022."
