Promising cocktail of drugs targets rare blood cancer
NCT ID NCT07574528
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a combination of three drugs (sintilimab, pegaspargase, and selinexor) followed by radiation in 47 people with newly diagnosed stage I/II extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, a rare blood cancer. The goal is to see how many patients achieve complete remission after treatment. It is an early-phase trial without a placebo group.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- sintilimab, pegaspargase, selinexor, and radiotherapy
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this combination could become a new first-line treatment option for early-stage NK/T-cell lymphoma, potentially improving response rates and reducing relapse.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase (Phase 2) trial with only 47 participants and no comparison group, so results may not be definitive. The drug combination may cause significant side effects, and not all patients may respond.
