New antibody drug takes aim at Hard-to-Treat brain lymphoma

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Patients with relapsed or refractory primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL) and relapsed or refractory secondary CNS lymphoma (SCNSL) who were not eligible or intolerant to other therapies were determined by the investigator;Recurrence and refractory are defined as follows: Recurrence refers to the emergence of new lesions after adequate treatment to complete response (CR).Refractory refers to a patient who has experienced at least first-line treatment without disease remission, e.g. induction chemotherapy with methotrexate without CR. * 7\. KPS score ≥60; * 8\. Adverse reactions of previous antitumor therapy returned to CTCAE 5.0 grade ≤1 (except for the indicators that the researchers considered to be related to the disease, such as anemia, and toxicities that the researchers determined to be without safety risk, such as alopecia, grade 2 peripheral neurotoxicity, hypothyroidism stabilized by hormone replacement therapy, etc.); * 9\. Before the first administration, the organ function level should meet the following requirements: Bone marrow function: In the absence of blood transfusion, G-CSF (long-acting white needle within 2 weeks) and medication correction within 7 days prior to screening: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥15×10\^9/L (subjects with bone marrow infiltration should be ≥0.5×10\^9/L);Hemoglobin ≥90 g/L;Platelet count ≥90×10\^9/L; Liver function: Total bilirubin ≤1.5 ULN (Gilbert's syndrome ≤3 ULN), transaminase (AST/ALT) ≤2.5 ULN (≤5.0 ULN for subjects with tumor invasive changes in the liver) without correction with hepatoprotective drugs within 7 days prior to screening; Renal function: Creatinine (Cr) ≤1.5 ULN and creatinine clearance (Ccr) ≥50 mL /min according to the Cockcroft and Gault formula; Routine urine / 24-hour urine protein quantification: qualitative urine protein ≤1+ (if qualitative urine protein ≥2+, 24-hour urine protein \< 1g can be included); Cardiac function: left ventricular ejection fraction ≥50%; Coagulation function: fibrinogen ≥1.5g/L; Activated partial thrombin time (APTT) ≤1.5 ULN; Prothrombin time (PT) ≤1.5 ULN. * 10\. Fertile female subjects or male subjects with fertile partners must use highly effective contraception beginning 7 days before the first dose and up to 12 weeks after the last dose.
