Study Summary

This trial will study the effects of a new drug, tirabrutinib, on patients with relapsed or refractory PCNSL (part A), and on patients with newly diagnosed, treatment naïve PCNSL (part B).

Who is the study for?
Adults with a confirmed diagnosis of Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma (PCNSL) who have either not been treated before or whose disease has returned after treatment. Participants must be in good enough health, as determined by organ function tests, and have a life expectancy of at least 3 to 6 months depending on the part of the trial they're entering.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing Tirabrutinib alone for those with relapsed PCNSL (Part A), and in combination with high-dose methotrexate-based regimens for newly diagnosed patients (Part B). The goal is to see how well it works and what side effects occur.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions related to immune system activation, liver issues, bleeding problems due to blood thinners interaction, infections risk increase including HIV or hepatitis reactivation if previously infected. Specific side effects from tirabrutinib are not listed but may resemble other drugs in its class.
