Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This is a prospective, single-arm, multi-center, phase Ib/II clinical trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of selinexor in combination with R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin, and prednisone) followed by selinexor maintenance for untreated EBV-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 1/Phase 2

Detailed Description

This is a prospective, single-arm, multi-center, phase Ib/II clinical trial to explore the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of selinexor when combined with R-CHOP regimen for untreated EBV-positive DLBCL patients.

Phase Ib study:

Selinexor will be given orally at two different doses (40mg qw, and 60mg qw ) and combined with the R-CHOP regimen from the second cycle based on the "3+3" principle.

In the induction therapy period, 6 cycles of R-CHOP regimen and 2 cycles of rituximab in combination with selinexor are planned.

The dose limited toxicity (DLT) will be evaluated after the first cycle of selinexor in combination with R-CHOP.

Phase II study:

The phase II study of selinexor at recommended phase II dose (RP2D) dose level combined with R-CHOP regimen was conducted to explore the efficacy and safety of the combined regimen.

After 8 cycles of induction therapy, if the response is assessed as complete remission (CR), maintenance therapy with selinexor will be conducted.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Selinexor in Combination With R-CHOP

Patients with untreated EBV-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma will receive sequentially higher doses of selinexor in combination with R-CHOP regimen from the second cycle of R-CHOP (3 weeks per cycle).The initial dose of selinexor is 40mg qw po. After 8 cycles of induction therapy, if the response is assessed as complete remission (CR), maintenance therapy with selinexor will be conducted.

Drug: Selinexor
Selinexor: 40mg qw po, and 60mg qw po (phase Ib); RP2D (II study); Selinexor is added from the second cycle of R-CHOP regimen.
