Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are children, adolescents, and young adults with relapsed CD20 positive B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma who meet specific eligibility criteria.

Probably not a fit

Patients who have previously received obinutuzumab or those with significant prior treatments 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 study aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of obinutuzumab, both alone and in combination with ICE chemotherapy (ifosfamide, carboplatin, and etoposide), for children, adolescents, and young adults with relapsed CD20 positive B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. Participants will be assessed for their response to treatment and any associated side effects. The study focuses on patients who have experienced a first relapse or primary induction failure of specific types of B-cell leukemia/lymphoma. The goal is to improve treatment outcomes for this patient population.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new effective option for young patients with relapsed CD20 positive Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promising results with similar approaches using obinutuzumab in combination with chemotherapy for B-cell lymphomas.
