Study Summary

This trial is testing a drug to see if it can help maintain remission for patients with mantle cell lymphoma who have responded to chemotherapy.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with mantle cell lymphoma who've responded to induction chemotherapy. They must have finished chemo at least 14 days ago but no more than 90 days prior, or show engraftment post-auto stem cell transplant. Participants need an ECOG performance status of <=2, indicating they can perform daily activities with some limitations.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if the drug Ibrutinib is effective as a maintenance therapy after initial chemo in MCL patients. It involves taking Ibrutinib and monitoring its effects on the disease through lab biomarker analysis to see how well it helps control cancer growth.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Ibrutinib may cause side effects like diarrhea, bleeding problems, high blood pressure, infections due to low white blood cells count, fatigue, and muscle and bone pain. The severity of these side effects can vary from person to person.

However, there are many other trials that may be of interest; as of right now, 1761 clinical trials are actively enrolling patients with stage iii mantle cell lymphoma and 202 studies for ibrutinib are also seeking participants."

Answered by AI

How has ibrutinib been found to be useful in the medical field?

"Ibrutinib is the most common amino acid supplementation therapy. It can also effectively manage renal dysfunction, chronic lymphocytic leukemia (cll), and kidney failure."

Answered by AI

Are there any life-threatening dangers associated with ibrutinib?

"Ibrutinib's safety is supported by data from Phase 2 trials, but since there is no efficacy data, it received a score of 2."
