Who can participate
This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.
Inclusion criteria
- Participant must be 18 years or older at the time of signing the informed consent form (ICF).
- Histologically confirmed primary central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma (PCNSL) prior to screening, as assessed by local pathology.
- Transplant-ineligible based on physician's assessment and meeting at least one of the following criteria: age ≥65 years or HCT-CI (Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation-specific Comorbidity Index) score ≥3.
- Participant must be suitable, per investigator, to receive a high dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) based treatment regimen.
- Prior to signing ICF, anti-cancer therapy for the treatment of PCNSL must be limited to HD-MTX based standard of care regimens with a minimum of 4 and maximum of 6 doses of MTX. Corticosteroids used as part of standard-of-care management for PCNSL symptom control are permitted prior to ICF signature but must be discontinued at the time of ICF signature. For medical conditions other than PCNSL, non-therapeutic corticosteroids use may be permitted on study.
- Prior to enrollment, participant's disease must be sensitive to prior high-dose methotrexate-based (HD-MTX) regimens, as demonstrated by a complete response (CR, no remaining signs of PCNSL) or a partial response (PR, signs of PNCSL mostly gone) per Investigator's assessment, based on the International Primary CNS Lymphoma Collaborative Group (IPCG) criteria.
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0, 1, or 2.
- No prior experimental treatments for PCNSL.
- Individuals of childbearing potential (IOCBP) must have a negative highly sensitive pregnancy test within 24 hours prior to the start of study intervention.
Exclusion criteria
- Participant has a diagnosis of secondary CNS lymphoma due to systemic disease.
- Primary intraocular lymphoma (PIOL)/ Primary vitreoretinal lymphoma (PVRL), isolated cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) disease, or a relapsed or refractory PCNSL.
- Any significant medical condition including the presence of laboratory abnormalities, which places the participant at unacceptable risk if he/she was to participate in the study based on investigator's judgement.
- History of another primary malignancy that has not been in remission for ≥2 years. a. Exceptions include certain adequately treated non-invasive malignancies, localized prostate cancer treated with curative intent, and completely resected Stage 1 solid tumors with a low risk of recurrence.
- Prior treatment with CAR T-cell or any other gene therapy product that utilizes human genome-editing technology.
- History of or active human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
- Active hepatitis B or active hepatitis C.
- Active autoimmune disease requiring immunosuppressive therapy.
- History of prior allogeneic transplant, or solid organ transplant requiring immunosuppressive therapy.
- Other protocol-defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria apply.

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
