Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 to 75 with newly diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma exhibiting specific genetic markers.

Probably not a fit

Patients who have previously received any form of systemic treatment or have other concurrent malignancies 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 II clinical trial evaluates the efficacy and safety of a combination treatment called CR-CHOP, which is administered alongside targeted drugs tailored to different genetic subtypes in patients with newly diagnosed double-expression lymphoma. Participants receive one course of CR-CHOP followed by additional cycles based on their genetic profile, with ongoing evaluations to assess treatment effectiveness. The study aims to determine the best treatment approach for patients with specific molecular characteristics of their lymphoma.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a more effective and personalized approach for patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise with targeted therapies in similar patient populations, suggesting potential for success in this approach.

* 3\. Previous history of other malignant tumors, except skin basal cell carcinoma and cervical carcinoma in situ;
* 4\. Accompanied by uncontrolled cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, coagulation disorders, connective tissue diseases, serious infectious diseases and other diseases;
* 5\. Primary central nervous system lymphoma;
* 6\. Left ventricular ejection fraction ≤ 50%;
* 7\. Laboratory test values at the time of screening (unless due to lymphoma): A. Neutrophils \<1.5\*109/L; B. Platelet \<75\*109/L; C. ALT or AST were 2 times higher than the upper limit of normal, AKP and bilirubin were 1.5 times higher than the upper limit of normal; D. Creatinine levels higher than 1.5 times the upper limit of normal;
* 8\. Other concurrent and uncontrolled medical conditions that the investigator believes will affect patient participation in the study;

* 11\. People living with HIV;
* 12\. Patients with positive HbsAg test results need to undergo HBV DNA test, and can be enrolled before turning negative. In addition, if the HBsAg test result is negative, but the HBcAb test is positive (regardless of the HBsAb status), HBV DNA test should also be performed. If the result is positive, the treatment should also be negative before admission.
