Using Selinexor with ICE chemotherapy for B-cell lymphoma with CNS involvement

Official title: Phase 1/2 Study of Selinexor With Dexamethasone, Ifosfamide, Carboplatin, and Etoposide in Patients Who Have Secondary Central Nervous System Involvement With Relapsed or Refractory B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

Run by Samsung Medical Center · NCT06552559 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study is testing if adding Selinexor to standard chemotherapy can help people with B-cell lymphoma that has spread to the brain feel better when other treatments haven't worked.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with histologically confirmed B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma and measurable CNS involvement.

Probably not a fit

Patients who have not received prior anthracycline-based chemotherapy or those with significant comorbidities may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial investigates the combination of Selinexor, a selective inhibitor of nuclear export, with ICE chemotherapy in patients suffering from B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has spread to the central nervous system. The study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of this treatment approach, particularly in cases where traditional therapies have failed. Participants will receive Selinexor alongside ifosfamide, carboplatin, etoposide, and dexamethasone, with the goal of improving response rates in a population that typically faces poor outcomes. The trial is designed for patients with measurable disease and specific eligibility criteria to ensure a focused assessment of the treatment's impact.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with B-cell lymphoma that has metastasized to the CNS, potentially improving survival rates.

How similar studies have gone: While there is limited data on the specific combination of Selinexor with ICE chemotherapy, other studies have shown promise in using Selinexor for relapsed or refractory B-cell lymphoma.
