Summary

This trial is comparing a new treatment to the current standard of care for people with a certain type of lymphoma that has come back or doesn't respond to treatment. They will be looking at how well the new treatment works compared to the current standard by measuring how long people live without the disease getting worse.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with a confirmed diagnosis of follicular lymphoma who need treatment and have at least one measurable lesion. They must have had the disease return or not respond after initial therapy, including those whose disease came back within 24 months or after two treatments. Pregnant women, individuals with certain nervous system disorders, severe neuropathy, active infections (including HIV and hepatitis), autoimmune diseases, cardiac issues in the past six months, prior CD19-targeted therapies or CAR T-cell therapies cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing axicabtagene ciloleucel against standard care drugs like Vincristine, Prednisone, Bendamustine etc., to see which works better for relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the study drug or one of the standard care options.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Axicabtagene ciloleucel may cause immune system reactions that can affect different body parts leading to symptoms like fever and fatigue; it might also lead to low blood cell counts increasing infection risk. Standard care drugs can cause hair loss, nausea/vomiting, weakness and increased risk of infections.

Group I: Axicabtagene CiloleucelExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Participants will receive cyclophosphamide 500 mg/m^2/day intravenously (IV) and fludarabine 30 mg/m^2/day IV lymphodepleting chemotherapy for 3 days followed by axicabtagene ciloleucel administered as a single IV infusion at a target dose of 2 x 10^6 anti-cluster of differentiation (CD)19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) transduced autologous T cells/kg on Day 0.
