glofitamab combination with chidamide in patients with recurrent/refractory dlbcl

Conditions: Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma-Recurrent; Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma-Refractory

Summary: an open-label, single-arm, single-center, phase ii clinical trial to evaluate the feasibility, efficacy and safety of glofitamab combination with chidamide in patients with recurrent/refractory diffuse large b-cell lymphoma.

this is an open-label, single-arm, single-center study to evaluate the feasibility, efficacy and safety of glofitamab combination with chidamide in the patient ≥ 18 years of age with recurrent/refractory diffuse large b-cell lymphoma. subjects who meet the eligibility criteria will receive combination therapy of glofitamab, chidamide. the study will include the following sequential phases: screening, treatment, and follow-up.
