What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effectiveness and safety of Duvelisib combined with Chidamide in treating patients with newly diagnosed peripheral T-cell lymphoma. It is a prospective, single-arm study that aims to recruit 36 patients who will receive Duvelisib orally at a dose of 25mg twice daily for 28-day cycles. The treatment's continuation will depend on the efficacy observed in the second phase, specifically if complete response (CR) is achieved. The study is conducted at a single center, ensuring focused monitoring and assessment of outcomes.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults aged 18-70 with newly diagnosed peripheral T-cell lymphoma confirmed by histopathology.

Not a fit: Patients who have previously received systemic treatment for lymphoma or have central nervous system involvement will not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment combination could provide a new effective option for patients with newly diagnosed peripheral T-cell lymphoma.

How similar studies have performed: While there have been studies on Duvelisib and Chidamide individually, this specific combination for newly diagnosed peripheral T-cell lymphoma is novel and has not been extensively tested.
