Mitoxantrone Hydrochloride Liposome Combined With Rituximab and Lenalidomide (M+R2) in Patients With Relapsed and Refractory Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide in the treatment of relapsed and refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).

This is a prospective, single-arm, multicenter phase Ⅱ clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide in patients with relapsed and refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome will be given on day 1 at the dose of 20 mg/m2 and be combined with rituximab and lenalidomide. A maximum of 6 cycles of therapy are planned.

* 8.Bone marrow function: Absolute neutrophil count ≥1.5×109/L, Platelet count ≥75×109/L, Hemoglobin ≥ 80g/L (Absolute neutrophil can be relaxed to ≥ 1.0×109/L, Platelet count can be relaxed to ≥50×109/L, Hemoglobin can be relaxed to ≥75 g/L in subjects with poor bone-marrow reserve);
* 9.Liver and kidney function: serum creatinine ≤ 1.5×ULN (upper limit of normal); AST and ALT ≤ 2.5×ULN (≤ 5×ULN for subjects with liver metastases); total bilirubin ≤ 1.5×ULN (≤ 3×ULN for subjects with liver metastases).

Exclusion Criteria:

* 1. The subject had previously received any of the following anti-tumor treatments:

  1. Subjects who have been treated with mitoxantrone or mitoxantrone liposomes;
  2. Previously received doxorubicin or other anthracycline treatment, and the total cumulative dose of doxorubicin was more than 360 mg/m2 (1 mg doxorubicin equivalent to 2 mg epirubicin);
  3. Subjects who received anti-tumor treatment (including chemotherapy, targeted therapy, glucocorticoid, traditional Chinese medicine with anti-tumor activity, etc.) or participated in other clinical trials and received trial drugs within 4 weeks or 5 T1/2s before the first administration of the study drugs;
  4. Subjects who received lenalidomide.
* 2.Subjects with refractory lymphoma meet one of the following criteria: 1) Tumors assessed as SD/PD after ≥2 lines of chemotherapy; 2) Subjects relapse within 6 months after transplantation.
* 3.Hypersensitivity to any study drug or its components;
* 4.Uncontrolled systemic diseases (such as active infection, uncontrolled hypertension, diabetes, etc.)

  1. Long QTc syndrome or QTc interval \> 480 ms;
  2. Complete left bundle branch block, grade II or III atrioventricular block;
  3. Serious and uncontrolled arrhythmias requiring drug treatment;
  4. New York Heart Association grade ≥ III;
  5. Cardiac ejection fraction (LVEF)\< 50%;
  6. A history of myocardial infarction, unstable angina pectoris, severe unstable ventricular arrhythmia or any other arrhythmia requiring treatment, a history of clinically serious pericardial disease, or ECG evidence of acute ischemia or active conduction system abnormalities within 6 months before recruitment.
* 6.Hepatitis B and hepatitis C active infection (plus HBV DNA if one positive for hepatitis B surface antigen or core antibody and HBV DNA more than 1×103 copy/mL excluded; plus HCV RNA if hepatitis C antibody positive and HCV RNA more than 1×103 copy/mL exclude)
* 7.Baseline B-type pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) \> 1800pg/ml, troponin I (cTnI) \> ULN of our center, and the retest data is still higher than the above range after three days;
* 8.Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection (HIV antibody positive);
* 9.Subjects with other malignant tumors past or present (except for non-melanoma skin basal cell carcinoma, breast/cervical carcinoma in control, and other malignant tumors that have been effectively controlled without treatment within the past five years);
* 10.Subjects suffering from primary or secondary central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma or a history of CNS lymphoma at the time of recruitment;
