Pola-R2 for older, less fit adults with new DLBCL
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (pola, Rituxan, and lenalidomide) for older adults (70+) with a common type of lymphoma (DLBCL) who are not well enough for standard chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this gentler treatment works well for patients who are less fit.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 70 years old or older and your doctor has said you are not fit or frail.

This study looks at how well a drug called polatuzumab works for people with a type of lymphoma (DLBCL) in everyday medical practice in China. It is for patients who are older, have other health problems, or whose lymphoma came back after or did not respond to treatment.
This trial tests a combination of targeted antibody drugs (polatuzumab vedotin and rituximab) plus two chemo drugs (gemcitabine and oxaliplatin) for people with DLBCL whose cancer returned after their first treatment and who cannot have a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see if this combination works better as a second-line treatment.
This trial tests a combination of four medications (pomalidomide, rituximab, orelabrutinib, and polatuzumab vedotin) for newly diagnosed, elderly patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who cannot tolerate standard treatments. It aims to see if this combination is effective and safe for older adults.
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (Pola-ZR2) against a standard combination (ZR2) for older adults with newly diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. It aims to see if the new mix is more effective and safe.
This trial tests a combination of two targeted therapies, polatuzumab vedotin and glofitamab, for people with DLBCL that either came back within 12 months of R-CHOP or never went away. The goal is to see if this two-drug approach can help when standard chemotherapy has not worked well.
