Brief Summary

This is a multi-center, prospective study. The main purpose is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BR (bendamustine and zuberitamab) combined with OR (orelabrutinib and zuberitamab) in treatment-naïve patients with marginal zone lymphoma.

Detailed Description

Marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) represents the second most prevalent indolent lymphoma subtype, accounting for 5-15% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas. MZL is categorized into three subtypes based on distinct clinical and pathological features: mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma (MALT), nodal marginal zone lymphoma (NMZL), and splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL). Currently, there remains no internationally recognized consensus regarding the optimal first-line treatment for MZL. Exploring more effective, low-toxicity treatment regimens for MZL patients is a scientifically valuable and clinically significant attempt. Orelabrutinib, a novel highly selective BTK inhibitor, has been approved by the NMPA for the treatment of MZL in patients who have received at least one prior treatment.

This study is a multi-center, prospective clinical study involving previously untreated MZL patients. During the induction therapy phase, patients will receive 90 mg/m2 of bendamustine and 375 mg/m2 zuberitamab from cycles 1 to 3, followed by 150 mg of orelabrutinib and 375 mg/m2 zuberitamab from cycles 4 to 6. At the investigator's discretion, patients who achieved a complete response or partial response could be assigned to maintenance therapy, consisting of 150 mg of orelabrutinib for up to 24 cycles.

Study Groups

BR (bendamustine and zuberitamab) + OR (orelabrutinib and zuberitamab)

Induction therapy: patients will receive 90 mg/m2 of bendamustine and 375 mg/m2 zuberitamab from cycles 1 to 3, followed by 150 mg of orelabrutinib and 375 mg/m2 zuberitamab from cycles 4 to 6.

Maintenance therapy: at the investigator's discretion, patients who achieved a complete response or partial response could be assigned to maintenance therapy, consisting of 150 mg of orelabrutinib for 24 cycles.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

BR+OR

Intervention Type: DRUG

Patients who meet the inclusion criteria will enter the treatment period, which consists of an induction phase followed by a maintenance phase. During the induction treatment period, a combined treatment of 3 cycles of the BR regimen and 3 cycles of the OR regimen will be administered, every 28-day cycle for 6 cycles. After the induction treatment, the efficacy assessment will determine whether patients with CR or PR proceed to the maintenance treatment period. Orelabrutinib monotherapy will used as maintenance therapy, every 28-day cycle for up to 24 cycles, or until disease progression/recurrence, unacceptable toxicity, death or consent withdrawal.

8. Coagulation function: International normalized ratio (INR) ≤1.5 ULN;

9. Expected survival time ≥12 months;

10. Voluntarily sign a written informed consent form before the trial screening.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Currently or previously diagnosed with other malignant tumors, unless curative treatment has been performed and there is evidence of no recurrence or metastasis within the last 5 years;

2. Lymphoma involving the central nervous system or transformation to a higher grade;

3. Have uncontrolled or significant cardiovascular disease: a) Within 6 months prior to the first dose of the study drug, there was New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II or above congestive heart failure, unstable angina, myocardial infarction, or any arrhythmia requiring treatment at screening, with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)<50%; b) Primary cardiomyopathy (e.g., dilated cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, restrictive cardiomyopathy, or unclassified cardiomyopathy); c) History of clinically significant QTc interval prolongation, or QTc interval >470 ms for females and >450 ms for males during the screening period; d) Subjects with symptomatic or pharmacologically treated coronary artery disease; e) Subjects with uncontrolled hypertension (blood pressure not reaching target despite lifestyle modifications and the use of reasonable, tolerable doses of 3 or more antihypertensive drugs (including diuretics) for over 1 month, or blood pressure only effectively controlled with 4 or more antihypertensive drugs.
