Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a single-arm, prospective clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of orelabrutinib combined with rituximab as first-line systemic treatment for marginal zone lymphoma.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) is a relatively common type of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL), with an incidence rate second only to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and follicular lymphoma (FL). The Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) signaling pathway plays a significant role in B-cell malignancies. Most B-cell malignancies require activation of the B-cell receptor (BCR), and BTK, located downstream of the BCR, plays a crucial role in B-cell proliferation, apoptosis, differentiation, and migration induced by antigens. Currently, there is no unified treatment regimen with high-level evidence for the treatment of newly diagnosed MZL. As mentioned above, although high-intensity immunochemotherapy regimens achieve high response rates and durable remission, they also bring higher treatment-related safety risks (with a rate of grade 3 or higher adverse events of about 80%), including treatment-related deaths. Therefore, exploring effective chemotherapy-free regimens for MZL patients is a scientifically valuable and clinically meaningful attempt. Drugs such as BTK inhibitors and CD20 monoclonal antibodies have shown good therapeutic activity and clinical data as single agents. This is a single-arm, prospective clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of orelabrutinib combined with rituximab as first-line systemic treatment for marginal zone lymphoma. All subjects will receive induction treatment with the orelabrutinib and rituximab regimen. The treatment cycle is 28 days, with a total of 6 cycles. Patients who achieve a partial response (PR) or better will enter a 2-year maintenance period with orelabrutinib.

orelabrutinib combined with rituximab regimen

All participants will receive induction therapy with the orelabrutinib and rituximab regimen. The treatment cycle is 28 days, with a total of 6 cycles. The induction treatment period is as follows:

Cycle 1: Rituximab, 375 mg/m², on Day 1. Cycles 2-6:Orelabrutinib, 150 mg, once daily orally, from Day 1 to Day 28. Rituximab, 375 mg/m², on Day 1.

Patients who achieve a partial response (PR) or better will enter a 2-year maintenance period with orelabrutinib.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Age ≥ 18 years, regardless of gender;
* Histologically confirmed CD20-positive marginal zone lymphoma, including MALT, SMZL, and NMZL, with at least one lesion outside the spleen measuring more than 1.5 cm in any axis;
* MZL that has progressed or relapsed after prior local therapy (including surgery, radiotherapy, anti-Helicobacter pylori treatment, and anti-hepatitis C treatment), or is not suitable for local therapy;
* ECOG performance status of 0-2;
* Presence of an indication for treatment as judged by the investigator (symptomatic, cytopenia, risk of end-organ damage, bulky disease, ongoing progression, or patient's desire for treatment);
* Adequate function of major organs, as follows:
* Hematology: Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5×109/L, platelets ≥ 75×109/L, hemoglobin ≥ 75 g/L; if there is bone marrow involvement, absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.0×109/L, platelets ≥ 50×109/L, hemoglobin ≥ 50 g/L;
* Biochemistry: Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN), AST or ALT ≤ 2 times ULN; serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 times ULN; serum amylase ≤ ULN;
* Coagulation: International normalized ratio (INR) ≤ 1.5 times ULN.
* Life expectancy of ≥ 3 months;
* Voluntary written informed consent obtained before screening for the trial.

Exclusion Criteria

* Currently or previously having other malignancies, unless there is evidence of no recurrence or metastasis within the past 5 years after curative treatment;
* Lymphoma involvement of the central nervous system or transformation to high-grade lymphoma;
* Non-hematological toxicities from prior anti-cancer treatments not recovered to ≤ Grade 1 (excluding alopecia);

* Primary cardiomyopathy (such as dilated cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, restrictive cardiomyopathy, unclassified cardiomyopathy);
* History of clinically significant QTc interval prolongation, or QTc interval \> 470 ms for females, \> 450 ms for males during the screening period;
* Symptomatic or medically treated coronary artery disease;
* Uncontrolled hypertension (defined as blood pressure not reaching target levels despite a reasonable and tolerable full dose of three or more antihypertensive drugs (including diuretics) for more than one month, or requiring four or more antihypertensive drugs to effectively control blood pressure).
