New pill aims to keep lymphoma away after CAR-T
NCT ID NCT07198373
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether taking zanubrutinib (a targeted cancer pill) for two years after CAR-T cell therapy can help keep non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma from coming back. About 40 adults whose cancer responded to CAR-T will receive the drug. The main goal is to see how many remain cancer-free after 24 months.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- zanubrutinib (a targeted cancer pill)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could help keep non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma in remission longer after CAR-T therapy, reducing the chance of relapse.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase exploratory study (40 people) with no control group, so results may not be conclusive. Zanubrutinib can cause side effects like bleeding or infections.
