br combined with or in treatment-naïve marginal zone lymphoma

Conditions: Marginal Zone Lymphomas

Summary: this is a multi-center, prospective study. the main purpose is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of br (bendamustine and zuberitamab) combined with or (orelabrutinib and zuberitamab) in treatment-naïve patients with marginal zone lymphoma.

marginal zone lymphoma (mzl) represents the second most prevalent indolent lymphoma subtype, accounting for 5-15% of all non-hodgkin lymphomas. mzl is categorized into three subtypes based on distinct clinical and pathological features: mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma (malt), nodal marginal zone lymphoma (nmzl), and splenic marginal zone lymphoma (smzl). currently, there remains no internationally recognized consensus regarding the optimal first-line treatment for mzl. exploring more effective, low-toxicity treatment regimens for mzl patients is a scientifically valuable and clinically significant attempt. orelabrutinib, a novel highly selective btk inhibitor, has been approved by the nmpa for the treatment of mzl in patients who have received at least one prior treatment. this study is a multi-center, prospective clinical study involving previously untreated mzl patients. during the induction therapy phase, patients will receive 90 mg/m2 of bendamustine and 375 mg/m2 zuberitamab from cycles 1 to 3, followed by 150 mg of orelabrutinib and 375 mg/m2 zuberitamab from cycles 4 to 6. at the investigator's discretion, patients who achieved a complete response or partial response could be assigned to maintenance therapy, consisting of 150 mg of orelabrutinib for up to 24 cycles.

Eligibility criteria:
