Not Applicable

Recruiting

• Conditions: CD30+ Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma
• Interventions: Drug: Induction therapy-3 cycles of BvC (Brentuximab vedotin plus Chidamide); Drug: Consolidation therapy- 3 or 6 cycles of BvC(Brentuximab vedotin plus chidamide); Drug: Maintenance therapy-chidamide

• Registration Number: NCT07074457

Brief Summary

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of chidamide combined with brentuximab vedotin regimen for CD30 positive PTCL patients who are unfit for chemotherapy.

Detailed Description

This study will enroll CD30-positive peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) patients who are ineligible for conventional chemotherapy. Participants will receive induction therapy with 3 cycles of BvC regimen (brentuximab vedotin plus chidamide combination). Patients demonstrating disease progression (PD) or stable disease (SD) will be withdrawn from the study. Patients achieving partial remission(PR) or complete remission(CR) will receive stratification consolidation therapy as followings:

Cohort 1 (patients achieved CR): Receive 3 additional cycles of BvC consolidation

Cohort 2 (patients achieved PR): Receive 6 additional cycles of BvC consolidation

After consolidation therapy, responding patients (CR/PR) will receive chidamide maintenance therapy for ≥2 years
