About this study
Official title: A Phase Ib Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Rocbrutinib in Combination With Rituximab, Gemcitabine, Oxaliplatin (R-GemOx) in Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma
This is a multicenter, open-label phase Ib study, evaluating the safety, tolerability, preliminary efficacy and PK characteristics of Rocbrutinib (LP-168) combined with R-GemOx in patients with R/R non-GCB DLBCL. Study includes dose escalation part and dose expansion part. In the dose escalation part, a classic "3+3" design will be used to assess the safety of each specified dose combination. Upon completion of a predefined escalation part, the decision on whether to proceed to the dose expansion part will be based on the safety, PK, and efficacy data of the combination regimen.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
This is a multicenter, open-label phase Ib study, evaluating the safety, tolerability, preliminary efficacy and PK characteristics of Rocbrutinib (LP-168) combined with R-GemOx in patients with R/R non-GCB DLBCL. Study includes dose escalation part and dose expansion part. In the dose escalation part, a classic "3+3" design will be used to assess the safety of each specified dose combination. Upon completion of a predefined escalation part, the decision on whether to proceed to the dose expansion part will be based on the safety, PK, and efficacy data of the combination regimen.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Rocbrutinib and R-GemOx in people with DLBCL, run by Guangzhou Lupeng Pharmaceutical Company LTD. at 2 sites in China.
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 9 inclusion and 12 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 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 China. 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?
Contact Qingqing Cai (086-20-87343355, caiqq@sysucc.org.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
DLTs (time frame: At the end of Cycle 1 (the length of cycle 1 is 21 days)). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
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 10 Sep 2026.
