Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma Clinical Trial in New York, NY

About This Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma Study in New York

The researchers are doing this study to find out if the study treatment is an effective treatment that causes few or mild side effects in people with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), high-grade B-cell lymphoma (HGBCL), or transformed lymphoma. The treatment being tested in this study is glofitamab, polatuzumab, and obinutuzumab in combination with standard treatment (the combination of rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone, or R-miniCHP).

Sponsor: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center

Any IPI score (Appendix 1)

Anthracycline eligible: LVEF ≥ 45% by echocardiogram or MUGA scan.

Patients who do not meet criteria for bone marrow function due to marrow involvement of lymphoma and/or other disease-related cytopenias (e.g., immune thrombocytopenia) may be enrolled into the study after discussion with, and confirmation by the PI.

Serum creatinine ≤ULN OR estimated Creatinine Clearance (CrCl) ≥30 mL/min (Cockcroft-Gault formula or other institutional standard methods)

Signed Informed Consent Form(s)

Ability to comply with all the study-related procedures, in the investigator's judgement

Female patients who are not of child bearing potential (i.e., who are postmenopausal or surgically sterile). For male participants: agreement to remain abstinent (refrain from heterosexual intercourse) or use contraceptive methods, and agree to refrain from donating sperm, as defined below: With a female partner of childbearing potential or pregnant female partners, male participants must remain abstinent or use a condom plus an additional contraceptive method that together result in a failure rate of \< 1% per year during the treatment period and for at least 6 months after pretreatment with obinutuzumab, 6 months after the last dose of polatuzumab, 160 days after the last dose of rituximab, 2 months after the final dose of glofitamab or 2 months after the last dose of tocilizumab (as applicable), whichever is longer. Male participants must refrain from donating sperm during this same period. The reliability of sexual abstinence should be evaluated in relation to the duration of the clinical trial and the preferred and usual lifestyle of the individual. Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, or postovulation methods) and withdrawal are not adequate methods of contraception. If required per local guidelines or regulations, locally recognized adequate methods of contraception and information about the reliability of abstinence will be described in the local Informed Consent Form.
