About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study of Obinutuzumab, Venetoclax, and Lenalidomide in Relapsed and Refractory B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

This phase I study studies the side effects and best dose of venetoclax and lenalidomide when given together with obinutuzumab in treating patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has returned after a period of improvement or not responding to treatment. Monoclonal antibodies, such as obinutuzumab, may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as lenalidomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving obinutuzumab, venetoclax, and lenalidomide may work better in treating patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine the dose limiting toxicity (DLT) and the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), which is typically the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), of the combination of obinutuzumab, venetoclax, and lenalidomide in patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To estimate the overall objective response rate to the combination of obinutuzumab, venetoclax, and lenalidomide in patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell NHL.

II. To estimate the duration of response and 2 year progression-free survival associated with obinutuzumab, venetoclax, and lenalidomide treatment in patients with relapsed and refractory B-cell NHL.

III. To define the qualitative and quantitative toxicities of the combination of obinutuzumab, venetoclax, and lenalidomide in patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell NHL.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of venetoclax and lenalidomide.

Patients receive lenalidomide orally (PO) on days 1-21 and venetoclax PO on days 1-28. Patients also receive obinutuzumab intravenously (IV) on days 1, 8, and 15 of course 1 and on day 1 of courses 2-6. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 12 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 4 weeks, every 3 months for 2 years, then every 6 months.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. MTD defined as the highest level at which no more than 6 patients experience a DLT assessed by National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria of Adverse Events version 4

    The recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), which is typically the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), of the combination of obinutuzumab, venetoclax, and lenalidomide in patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL).

    Measured: Up to 28 days

Secondary outcomes (2)

  1. Objective response rate (ORR) defined as the proportion of patients achieving a complete or partial, response according to the Lugano Lymphoma Response Criteria

    ORR will be reported with a 95% binomial confidence interval.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  2. Progression-free survival

    PFS will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier. Median PFS and 2-year PFS estimates will be reported with 95% confidence intervals. If applicable, a sensitivity analysis of PFS will include any eligible patient who receives at least one dose of study treatment (i.e. venetoclax alone without beginning the combination regimen).

    Measured: From course 1 day 1 to the date of the event (i.e., death or disease progression), assessed up to 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Lenalidomide, Obinutuzumab and Venetoclax in people with B-Cell Lymphoma, Unspecified and Grade 1 Follicular Lymphoma, run by Beth Christian at 2 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 19 inclusion and 24 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Sep 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

MTD defined as the highest level at which no more than 6 patients experience a DLT assessed by National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria of Adverse Events version 4 (time frame: Up to 28 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02992522.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Sep 2026.
