Summary

This trial is studying a combination of drugs to treat B cell Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The investigators will establish the maximum tolerated dose of the combination and study its efficacy.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, including newly diagnosed and first relapse patients. It's suitable for those who haven't had anthracycline chemotherapy before or have only used non-anthracycline therapy once. Participants must be in good physical condition (ECOG <=1), not pregnant, willing to use contraception, and have a life expectancy over 6 months.
What is being tested?
The trial tests Selinexor combined with R-CHOP chemotherapy to find the safest dose and see if it's more effective against B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma than standard treatments. The study includes two phases: Phase Ib determines the maximum tolerated dose of Selinexor; Phase II assesses its effectiveness.
What are the potential side effects?
Selinexor may cause nausea, vomiting, fatigue, loss of appetite, weight loss, diarrhea or constipation. Chemotherapy side effects can include hair loss, anemia (low red blood cell count), risk of infection due to low white blood cells, bruising or bleeding from low platelets.

Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (selinexor, RCHOP)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients will receive selinexor PO on days 1, 8, and 15 of a 21 week cycle. RCHOP will be given at standard dosing every 21 days. In the phase 1 part there is dose escalation for Selinexor in a 3+3 design. Treatment will be given for 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients with partial response or better will receive maintenance selinexor PO on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 every 28 days for up to 1 year in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
