Epcoritamab With Dose Adjusted Etoposide, Cyclophosphamide, Vincristine, Doxorubicin, Prednisone and Rituximab (EPOCH-R) for the Treatment of Aggressive B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NCT07097363)
A Pilot Study of Epcoritamab With Dose Adjusted Etoposide, Cyclophosphamide, Vincristine, Doxorubicin, Prednisone and Rituximab (EPOCH-R) for Upfront Treatment of Aggressive B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphomas
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This phase II trial tests the safety, best dose, and effectiveness of epcoritamab when given with etoposide, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin, prednisone and rituximab (EPOCH-R) for the treatment of patients with aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Epcoritamab is a bispecific antibody that can bind to two different antigens at the same time. Epcoritamab binds to CD3, a T-cell surface antigen, and CD20 (a tumor-associated antigen that is expressed on B-cells during most stages of B-cell development and is often overexpressed in B-cell cancers) and may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Etoposide is in a class of medications known as podophyllotoxin derivatives. It blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and DNA repair and may kill cancer cells. Cyclophosphamide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by damaging the cell's DNA and may kill cancer cells. It may also lower the body's immune response. Vincristine is in a class of medications called vinca alkaloids. It works by stopping cancer cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Doxorubicin is in a class of medications called anthracyclines. Doxorubicin damages the cell's DNA and may kill cancer cells. It also blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and DNA repair. Prednisone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It is used to reduce inflammation and lower the body's immune response to help lessen the side effects of chemotherapy drugs. Rituximab is a monoclonal antibody. It binds to a protein called CD20, which is found on B cells (a type of white blood cell) and some types of cancer cells. The EPOCH-R is administrated as the standard of care treatment. This may help the immune system kill cancer cells. Giving epcoritamab with EPOCH-R may be safe, tolerable, and effective in treating patients with aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
