ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is investigating a new treatment called glofitamab for patients with relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), which means their cancer has come back or hasn't responded to previous treatments. The study compares glofitamab alone against two other treatment options chosen by the doctors: a combination of rituximab and bendamustine, or rituximab with lenalidomide. The goal is to see which treatment works better for patients with this specific type of lymphoma.

To participate in the trial, patients need to be between 65 and 74 years old, have a confirmed diagnosis of mantle cell lymphoma, and have received at least one prior treatment. They should also have measurable disease, meaning their cancer can be seen on scans. Participants will have regular check-ups and monitoring throughout the study to track their health and response to treatment. It’s important for potential participants to discuss the trial with their healthcare team to understand if they meet the eligibility criteria and what being part of the study entails.
