NCT ID NCT05464719

First seen Nov 19, 2025 · Last updated Jun 21, 2026 · Updated 33 times

Summary

This phase II trial tests whether the drug loncastuximab tesirine (Lonca) can help control large B-cell lymphoma in patients who had only a partial response after CAR T-cell therapy. About 30 adults with relapsed or refractory lymphoma will receive Lonca intravenously. The main goal is to see if it can turn a partial response into a complete response, while also monitoring safety.

What this could lead to

If successful, this could offer a new option to achieve complete remission in patients whose lymphoma only partially responded to CAR T-cell therapy.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-phase study with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug may cause side effects and may not improve outcomes for all patients.
