Testing Pola-ZR2 vs ZR2 for older adults with lymphoma
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 80 years or older, or between 70 and 79 with a frailty assessment showing you are not fit for standard chemo.
- You have been diagnosed with a type of lymphoma called diffuse large B-cell lymphoma that has not spread to your brain or spinal cord.
- You have not had any prior lymphoma treatment (except steroids).
- You have at least one tumor or lymph node that can be measured on a scan.
- Your heart, liver, kidneys, and blood counts are in a certain healthy range, and you do not have serious infections like HIV.

This trial tests if adding another drug (X) to a standard chemotherapy mix (Pola-RCHP) works better for people with untreated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). It is for those whose cancer DNA levels did not drop enough after the first round of treatment.
This study tests a combination of three newer targeted drugs for older adults (70+) who have just been diagnosed with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and have not yet received any treatment. The goal is to see if this drug combo can control the lymphoma effectively while being manageable for older patients.
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-ZR2P) for people with a type of lymphoma called diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who have not had chemotherapy yet. It aims to see if this treatment is safe and effective.
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.
This trial tests a new combination of drugs for people with a type of lymphoma called diffuse large B cell lymphoma, especially if you are older or not healthy enough for standard full-dose chemotherapy. The treatment includes two immunotherapy drugs (epcoritamab and polatuzumab) plus a reduced-intensity chemotherapy regimen (mini-CHP). The goal is to see if this combination is safe and effective for people who may not tolerate stronger treatments.
