About
This study was conducted to evaluate the complete response rate of Ibrutinib + R-CHOP in patients with Epstein-Barr virus-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
Full description
EBV-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma has EBV-mediated carcinogenic signaling pathway activation, and this diverse intracellular pathway may be a potential therapeutic target in this disease.
The BTK inhibitor, ibrutinib, targets the B cell receptor signaling pathway and is active against B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. As a result, evidence of the antitumor effect of ibrutinib has been accumulated in some B-cell lymphoma forms such as mantle cell lymphoma. The addition of ibrutinib to standard chemotherapy, rituximab-CHOP, is considered to be an effective treatment for patients with EBV-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphomas, because it is known to show a poor response to treatment compared to (NOS) diffuse large B- It can provide benefits to patients.

•Exception: a) Prednisolone 100mg or equivalent dosage of any types of steroid is allowed (Maximum 7 days); b) Radiation for reducing symptom related with mass effect is allowed
-
History of or known carcinomatous meningitis, or evidence of symptomatic leptomeningeal disease or secondary CNS involvement on CT or MRI scan.
-
Pregnancy or breastfeeding
-
Major surgery within 4 weeks of enrollment
-
History of stroke or intracranial hemorrhage within 6 months prior to enrollment
-
Requires anticoagulation with warfarin or equivalent vitamin K antagonists (eg, phenprocoumon).
-

Known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or active Hepatitis C Virus or active Hepatitis B Virus infection or any uncontrolled active systemic infection requiring intravenous (IV) antibiotics.
-
Any life-threatening illness, medical condition, or organ system dysfunction which, in the investigator's opinion, could compromise the subject's safety, interfere with the absorption or metabolism of ibrutinib capsules, or put the study outcomes at undue risk.
