Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are patients aged 60 and older with untreated mantle cell lymphoma who are not eligible for stem cell transplantation.

Probably not a fit

Patients with a history of other malignancies or significant gastrointestinal dysfunction may not benefit from this study.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial evaluates the effectiveness and safety of Orelabrutinib combined with bendamustine and rituximab compared to the standard treatment of bendamustine and rituximab alone in patients with previously untreated mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). The study aims to enroll patients aged 60 and older who are not candidates for stem cell transplantation. Participants will be assessed for measurable disease and must have a confirmed diagnosis of MCL. The trial is designed to provide insights into the potential benefits of Orelabrutinib in improving treatment outcomes for this patient population.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could offer a more effective option for patients with mantle cell lymphoma, potentially improving survival rates.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise in using targeted therapies for mantle cell lymphoma, suggesting potential success for this approach.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Subjects ≥ 65 of age, or ≥ 60 and \< 65 years old who are ineligible for stem cell transplant or have refused stem cell transplantation due to reason(s) including: Have not received prior systemic therapies for MCL.
2. Modified Ann Arbor stage II-IV. Patients with stage II require systemic treatment to be eligible, at the discretion of the investigator.
3. Histopathological confirmed MCL, expression of Cyclin D1 and/or t (11; 14) chromosomal translocation. Either fresh tissue or FFPE for diagnosis must be sent to central lab for final confirmation after randomization.
4. At least one measurable site of disease (the longest axis of the lymph node lesion is \> 1.5 cm, or the longest diameter of the extranodal lesion is \> 1.0 cm).
5. ECOG PS score of 0 to 2.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Existing or prior history of other malignant tumor and no evidence of recurrence and metastasis within 2 years before screening.
2. Subjects with evident gastrointestinal dysfunction that may affect drug intake, transport or absorption, or subjects who have undergone total gastrectomy.
3. Subjects for whom the goal of therapy is tumor debulking prior to stem cell transplant.
4. Use of strong inhibitors or strong inducers of cytochrome P450 3A within 14 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, before the first dose of study treatment; or plan to use strong inhibitors or strong inducers of CYP3A during the study.
5. Known central nervous system lymphoma.
