About this study
Official title: A Phase II, Randomized, Open-label Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Brentuximab Vedotin Combined With Lisaftoclax in Patients With CD30-positive Cutaneous T-cell Lymphoma (CTCL)
This is a prospective, single-center, open-label, randomized, controlled phase II clinical trial. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combining brentuximab vedotin (an anti-CD30 antibody-drug conjugate, ADC) with lisaftoclax (APG-2575, a novel B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL-2) inhibitor) in patients with CD30-positive cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), specifically including mycosis fungoides (MF) and primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (pcALCL).
Previous studies suggest that the overexpression of the anti-apoptotic protein BCL-2 may contribute to brentuximab vedotin resistance in CTCL. Researchers hypothesize that adding a highly selective BCL-2 inhibitor (lisaftoclax) can reverse this drug resistance, enhance tumor cell apoptosis, and improve clinical outcomes.

In this study, approximately 46 eligible patients will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to one of two treatment arms:
Monotherapy arm (control): Patients will receive brentuximab vedotin intravenously at a dose of 1.8 mg/kg every 3 weeks for a total of 16 cycles.
Combination arm (experimental): Patients will receive the same brentuximab vedotin regimen. Additionally, starting from the 6th cycle, patients will receive oral lisaftoclax. To mitigate the risk of tumor lysis syndrome (TLS), a daily dose ramp-up will be implemented in the first cycle of lisaftoclax. Subsequently, lisaftoclax will be administered at a targeted dose of 600 mg daily on days 1 to 10 of each 21-day cycle, for a total of 9 combination cycles.
The primary endpoint of the study is the objective response rate (ORR) evaluated at the end of the 16 cycles. Secondary endpoints include the improvement of skin lesions (evaluated by modified severity-weighted assessment tool (mSWAT) score), pruritus relief (visual analog scale (VAS) score), and the incidence of adverse events (AEs). Independent, blinded assessors will be utilized to evaluate the clinical responses to reduce bias.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Brentuximab Vedotin (Bv) and Lisaftoclax (APG-2575) in people with Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma/Mycosis Fungoides and Primary Cutaneous Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma, run by Peking University First Hospital at 1 site 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 13 inclusion and 20 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jul 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
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?
Objective Response Rate (ORR) (time frame: At the end of 16 treatment cycles (up to approximately 48 weeks)). 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 23 Jul 2026.
