New drug duo aims to tackle untreated lymphoma
NCT ID NCT06350318
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This phase 2 study is testing a combination of two drugs—rituximab and zanubrutinib—in people with untreated follicular lymphoma or marginal zone lymphoma, both slow-growing B-cell cancers. The goal is to see how well the combo shrinks tumors and how safe it is. About 43 participants will receive both medications, and researchers will track response rates and side effects over time.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- rituximab and zanubrutinib
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this combination could offer a more effective first treatment for certain slow-growing lymphomas, potentially improving response rates and delaying disease progression.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase trial (43 people) without a comparison group, so results may not prove superiority over standard care. Side effects from the drugs are possible, including infections and bleeding risks.
