Summary

This study tests a combination of two drugs, acalabrutinib and rituximab, in people aged 65 and older with newly diagnosed mantle cell lymphoma who haven't had treatment yet. Acalabrutinib blocks enzymes that help cancer grow, while rituximab targets and kills cancer cells. The goal is to see if this combo can control the lymphoma and what side effects it may cause.
