Study Summary

This trial will test ibrutinib given with bendamustine and rituximab to see if it is effective and safe in treating mantle cell lymphoma in patients over 65.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people 65 or older newly diagnosed with mantle cell lymphoma, which is a type of cancer affecting white blood cells. Participants must have certain lab-confirmed markers, measurable disease, no prior MCL treatments, good physical function (ECOG grade 0 or 1), and acceptable blood test results. They can't join if they've had major surgery recently, CNS lymphoma, serious heart issues within the past six months, HIV/Hepatitis B/C infections requiring IV antibiotics, another active malignancy except in specific cases or a stroke/hemorrhage recently.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests how well Ibrutinib works alongside Bendamustine and Rituximab to treat mantle cell lymphoma in patients who haven't been treated before. Some participants will receive Ibrutinib while others may get a placebo as part of the study's design to compare outcomes.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Ibrutinib might cause bleeding problems, high blood pressure, irregular heartbeat among other side effects. Bendamustine can lead to low blood counts increasing infection risk and may also cause allergic reactions. Rituximab could potentially cause infusion-related reactions and infections.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

In how many different medical clinics is this medical study being run today?

"So far, this clinical trial has enrolled patients from 49 different locations. If you are thinking about participating in the study, it might be helpful to choose a clinic that is close to your location to avoid extensive travel."

Answered by AI

Is Ibrutinib a new medication?

"The original study for Ibrutinib was completed in 1993 at the National Institutes of Health Clinical Center. So far, there have been a total of 19215 clinical trials completed worldwide. As of now, there are 577 live clinical trials, with many of these taking place in Lexington, Kentucky."

Answered by AI

What are the main conditions that ibrutinib has been found to alleviate?

"Ibrutinib is a medication that oncologists often prescribe to treat diffuse large b-cell lymphoma. Additionally, it can be used as part of treatment plans for hodgkin disease, other b-cell lymphomas, and polyangium."

Answered by AI

How many total participants are in this clinical trial?

"This trial is no longer enrolling patients. However, there are presently 1759 trials actively searching for patients with mantle cell lymphoma (mcl) and 577 trials for Ibrutinib that are still recruiting."

Answered by AI

Is Ibrutinib known to cause any life-threatening side effects?

"Ibrutinib is a Phase 3 drug, which means that while there is some data supporting its efficacy, there is also multiple rounds of data confirming its safety. Consequently, our team at Power has given it a score of 3."

Answered by AI

Are we still looking for more participants for this experiment?

"Unfortunately, this specific trial is no longer recruiting patients. It was initially posted on May 16th, 2013 and had its last update on November 3rd, 2022. There are other ongoing trials though; as of now, there are 1759 clinical trials for mantle cell lymphoma (mcl) and 577 for Ibrutinib enrolling patients."
