Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults aged 18 or older with pathologically confirmed, previously untreated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma who are medically fit for combination therapy and meet the trial's safety criteria are ideal candidates.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with active uncontrolled infections, unstable severe organ dysfunction, or who are pregnant or lactating are unlikely to be eligible and may not benefit from this regimen.

What this trial studies
This phase 2 trial gives a five-drug combination—polatuzumab vedotin, zanubrutinib, rituximab, lenalidomide, and prednisone—as induction therapy to adults with previously untreated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Patients will receive the regimen as their initial chemotherapy and be followed for overall response rate, progression-free survival, overall survival, and adverse events. Eligible participants are adults with pathologically confirmed DLBCL who have not had prior chemotherapy and meet standard safety criteria. The study is conducted at Navy General Hospital in Beijing.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this combination could produce higher response rates and longer progression-free survival for patients with untreated DLBCL.
How similar studies have gone: Components of this regimen (polatuzumab combinations and lenalidomide plus rituximab) have shown activity in DLBCL in other studies, but the specific five-drug combination is relatively novel and less tested.
