Comparing two treatment combinations for Hodgkin Lymphoma patients resistant to Anti-PD-1 therapy

A Randomized, Open-label, Phase 2 Trial of Chidamide+Decitabine+Camrelizumab Versus Decitabine+Camrelizumab in Anti-PD-1 Antibody Resistant Patients With Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma.

Phase 2 Interventional Chinese PLA General Hospital · NCT04514081

This study is testing a new combination treatment for Hodgkin Lymphoma patients who didn't respond to previous therapy to see if it works better than the standard treatment.

What this trial studies

This open-label, randomized phase 2 trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a combination treatment involving Chidamide, Decitabine, and Camrelizumab against a control group receiving Decitabine and Camrelizumab. The study focuses on patients with classical Hodgkin Lymphoma who have shown resistance to Anti-PD-1 antibody therapy. Participants will be monitored for overall response rates to determine the efficacy of the new treatment regimen. The trial is designed to provide insights into alternative therapeutic options for this challenging patient population.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are individuals aged 12 to 75 with relapsed or refractory Hodgkin lymphoma who have previously received Anti-PD-1 antibody therapy and are confirmed resistant.

Not a fit: Patients with autoimmune diseases, serious uncontrolled medical disorders, or those who have had recent alimentary tract hemorrhage may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could offer a new effective treatment option for patients with Hodgkin Lymphoma who are resistant to current therapies.

How similar studies have performed: While there is ongoing research in this area, the specific combination of Chidamide, Decitabine, and Camrelizumab in Anti-PD-1 resistant Hodgkin Lymphoma patients is relatively novel.
