Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are adults with aggressive large B-cell lymphoma who are eligible for CAR T-cell therapy and have a performance status of 0 or 1.

Probably not a fit

Patients with primary CNS lymphoma or those who do not meet the eligibility criteria for CAR T-cell therapy 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 phase 2 trial is an open-label, multicenter study aimed at evaluating the efficacy of golcadomide in patients with aggressive large B-cell lymphoma who are at high risk of relapse after receiving CAR T-cell therapy. Approximately 65 patients will be enrolled, and treatment will last for 24 weeks, consisting of 6 cycles of 28 days each, starting 5 days post-CAR T-cell infusion. The primary objective is to assess the complete metabolic response rate at 3 months following the infusion of CAR T-cells. Safety analyses will be conducted, with enrollment paused after the first 3 patients complete treatment or discontinue.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could improve outcomes for patients with aggressive large B-cell lymphoma who are at high risk of relapse after CAR T-cell therapy.

How similar studies have gone: While this approach is novel in the context of golcadomide post-CAR T-cell therapy, similar studies have shown promise in utilizing CAR T-cell therapy for aggressive lymphomas.
