Treatment for untreated extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma using a combination of drugs
Official title: A Single-arm, Phase 2 Study of Sintilimab, Pegaspargase Combined with Gemcitabine and Oxaliplatin (P-P-GEMOX) Regimen for Newly Diagnosed Extranodal NK/T-Cell Lymphoma
Run by Peking Union Medical College Hospital · NCT06824883 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing a new combination of drugs to see if it can help people with untreated extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma feel better and improve their chances of survival.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 to 75 with a confirmed diagnosis of extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma and specific risk factors.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with aggressive NK-cell leukemia or central nervous system lymphoma will 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 study evaluates the safety and efficacy of a combination treatment involving sintilimab, pegaspargase, and the P-P-GEMOX regimen (gemcitabine and oxaliplatin) for patients with untreated extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL). The study aims to determine the complete response rate as the primary endpoint, while also assessing overall response rate, progression-free survival, overall survival, and adverse events as secondary endpoints. Participants will be closely monitored for their response to the treatment and any potential side effects.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could significantly improve outcomes for patients with untreated ENKTL.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise with similar immunochemotherapy approaches, suggesting potential for success in this trial.
