Rituximab is a monoclonal antibody that targets CD20 on certain cells.
You’ll get:
- Pirtobrutinib – A pill that you take by mouth. The dose you'll get depends on when you start the trial and how safe it has been
- Rituximab – Given as intravenous (IV) infusions. The dose you'll get depends on when you start the trial and how safe it has been
You'll have scans to see how well the treatment is working. The clinical trial doctors will check your health for up to 7 years.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved pirtobrutinib to treat chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) that has come back (relapsed) or not gotten better with treatment (refractory), or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). The FDA has approved rituximab to treat MZL. Using them in this combination to treat newly diagnosed MZL is new and unproven.
