Clinical Trials Reem Karmali is currently running
Pembrolizumab + Tazemetostat
for Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma
This phase II trial tests how well pembrolizumab and tazemetostat work to treat patients who have received autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) or chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy for aggressive non hodgkins lymphoma. A monoclonal antibody, such as pembrolizumab, is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets in the body, such as molecules that cause the body to make an immune response (antigens). Tazemetostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving pembrolizumab and tazemetostat may work better to treat patients who have received ASCT or CAR-T cell therapy for aggressive non hodgkins lymphoma.

Cell Therapy
for Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma
This trial tests a new treatment where a patient's own immune cells are enhanced to fight difficult-to-treat lymphoma. It targets patients whose cancer hasn't responded to at least two other treatments. The modified cells aim to better recognize and attack the cancer. This new method improves the ability of the patient's immune cells to find and destroy cancer cells.
