Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The PORTAL study will test a new combination of drugs (glofitamab, polatuzumab vedotin and obinutuzumab) in patients with large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) that has come back (relapsed) or not responded to previous treatment. It will determine how safe and effective the combination of these cancer drugs is in treating LBCL before and after CAR-T cell therapy.

- type
- EXPERIMENTAL
- label
- Part 1
- description
- Patients whose large B-cell lymphoma has progressed/not responded to previous treatment and are due to start standard CAR-T therapy. All patients receive 2 cycles of glofitamab and polatuzumab vedotin (Glofit-Pola). Obinutuzumab pre-treatment is given on cycle 1 day 1. Patients have a PET-CT scan to check the response after cycle 2. If the scan shows a response and patients are still suitable for CAR-T cell therapy, patients will proceed to receive planned CAR-T therapy and will not receive further Glofit-Pola in Part 1. If not, patients can receive 4 more cycles of glofitamab and polatuzumab vedotin, and then 6 cycles of glofitamab.
