Combining Golidocitinib and Pomalidomide for treating relapsed T-cell lymphoma

A Phase I/II, Open-Label Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Golidocitinib As Monotherapy or in Combination with Pomalidomide for the Treatment of Relapsed/Refractory Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma (R/R PTCL)

This study is testing a new combination of two medications, Golidocitinib and Pomalidomide, to see if it can help people with relapsed T-cell lymphoma feel better.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial evaluates the safety and efficacy of Golidocitinib combined with Pomalidomide in patients with relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (R/R PTCL). It is a prospective, open-label study that aims to enroll approximately 26-33 patients who have not previously received these medications. The trial will assess dose-limiting toxicity and determine the maximum tolerated dose in phase I, while phase II will focus on the objective response rate of the combination therapy. Secondary endpoints will include various measures of response duration and overall survival, providing valuable insights into this novel treatment approach.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 to 80 with histopathologically confirmed relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma.

Not a fit: Patients who have previously received Golidocitinib or Pomalidomide may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this combination therapy could offer a new treatment option for patients with relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma.

How similar studies have performed: While this specific combination has not been widely tested, similar approaches in treating T-cell lymphomas have shown promise in other studies.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

* Patients must demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of the study protocol, voluntarily consent to participation, and execute the informed consent document.
* Inclusive of both genders, participants must be aged 18 years or older and not exceed 80 years of age.
* Histopathological confirmation of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) must adhere to the World Health Organization (WHO) 2016 classification criteria. This encompasses a range of PTCL subtypes, including but not limited to peripheral T cell lymphoma not otherwise specified (PTCL NOS), vascular immunoblastic T cell lymphoma (AITL), NK/T cell lymphoma, anaplastic large cell lymphoma ALK positive (ALCL ALK+), anaplastic large cell lymphoma ALK negative (ALCL ALK-), enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma, hepato-splenic T-cell lymphoma, subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma, and other subtypes deemed eligible for study participation by the investigators.
* Subjects must exhibit relapsed or refractory disease following prior systemic therapy, which may include autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Relapse is characterized by disease recurrence post-complete response (CR), whereas refractory disease is indicated by stable disease (SD) or progressive disease (PD) following systemic chemotherapy, or by the absence of CR upon treatment completion necessitating further intervention.
* At least one lesion must be present that is evaluable or measurable according to the Lugano2014 criteria: for lymph node lesions, the minimum measurable length is 1.5cm; for non-lymph node lesions, extra-nodal lesions must exceed 1.0cm in length.
* Participants must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score ranging from 0 to 2.
* Laboratory parameters must meet the following criteria: (1) absolute neutrophil count (ANC) of at least 1.5×10\^9/L; (2) platelet count (PLT) of at least 75×10\^9/L (with a minimum of 50×10\^9/L for patients with bone marrow infiltration); (3) hemoglobin (HB) level of at least 80 g/L; (4) serum total bilirubin (TBIL) not exceeding 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN); (5) alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels not exceeding 2.5 times the ULN; (6) serum creatinine (Scr) not exceeding 1.5 times the ULN.
* Participants must not have undergone radiotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation within the 3 weeks preceding study enrollment.
* Investigators must assess that the subject has a life expectancy of at least six months.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Presence of hemophagocytic syndrome.
* Involvement of the central nervous system or meninges by lymphoma.
* A history of malignant tumors within the past five years, with the exception of locally curable tumors that have been subjected to radical treatment (e.g., basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, superficial bladder cancer, or carcinoma in situ of the prostate, cervix, or breast).
* History of any of the following treatments:(1) Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation prior to the administration of the investigational drug; (2) Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation within six months preceding study drug administration; (3) Previous use of golidocitinib or pomalidomide; (4) Current use of vitamin K antagonists, antiplatelet drugs, anticoagulants (or unable to discontinue within one week prior to study commencement); (5) Requirement for systemic glucocorticoid therapy or other immunosuppressive therapy for any condition within 14 days prior to study initiation; topical, ocular, intraarticular, intranasal, and inhaled glucocorticoids are permitted; short-term (≤7 days) glucocorticoid use for prophylactic treatment or non-autoimmune diseases is allowed; (6) Cytotoxic chemotherapy must not have been terminated within 21 days before the start of the study; (7) Received systemic antineoplastic therapy (including macromolecular monoclonal antibodies and immunotherapy drugs) within four weeks of study initiation; (8) Undergone major surgery (excluding vascular access surgery) or experienced serious trauma within four weeks before the start of the study; or received radiation therapy within three weeks; (9) Received other toxin/isotope-immune antibody conjugates within ten weeks; (10) For other types of new drug use, the researcher shall make a determination after comprehensive assessment; (11) Received an experimental drug or investigational drug in another trial within 30 days prior to study commencement; (12) Received live vaccines (except attenuated influenza vaccines) 28 days prior to study drug administration.

Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (HBsAg) must be further tested with Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) DNA titer (not to exceed 1000 IU/mL) at the screening stage. Enrollment in the trial is only possible after excluding active hepatitis B or C infections requiring treatment. Hepatitis B carriers, patients with stable hepatitis B after drug treatment (with a DNA titer not exceeding 1000 IU/mL), and cured hepatitis C patients are eligible for enrollment. (For included hepatitis B patients, entecavir and other anti-hepatitis B virus treatments should be administered orally as per guidelines); (4) Active viral infections other than hepatitis B and C (e.g., herpes zoster, cytomegalovirus); (5) Infections necessitating oral or intravenous antimicrobial therapy; (6) Bacterial infections within 30 days, including pneumonia.
* Active autoimmune diseases requiring systemic treatment within the past two years (hormone replacement therapy not considered systemic treatment, such as type I diabetes, hypothyroidism managed with thyroxine replacement alone, adrenal or pituitary insufficiency requiring only physiological glucocorticoid replacement); patients with autoimmune diseases not requiring systemic treatment in the past two years may be enrolled.

Myocardial infarction within one year iv. Patients with clinically significant supraventricular or ventricular arrhythmias requiring treatment or intervention;
