New drug duo aims to control Slow-Growing blood cancer without chemotherapy

NCT ID NCT03198026

Summary

This study is testing how well two targeted drugs, obinutuzumab and ibrutinib, work together as the first treatment for people with certain slow-growing types of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The goal is to control the cancer by stopping cancer cells from growing and spreading, potentially offering an alternative to chemotherapy. About 30 adults who have not yet received treatment for their lymphoma will receive the drug combination to see how effective and safe it is.
