Summary

This trial is testing the side effects and best dose of two drugs, lenalidomide and ibrutinib, when given with a third drug, rituximab, to treat patients with follicular lymphoma that has not been treated before.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with previously untreated stage II-IV follicular lymphoma. Eligible participants must have a certain level of health, including no severe heart conditions, uncontrolled seizures, or active infections like HIV above specific thresholds. They should not be pregnant or nursing and must agree to use effective birth control methods.
What is being tested?
The study tests the combination of lenalidomide and ibrutinib with rituximab to treat follicular lymphoma. Lenalidomide may help the immune system halt cancer growth; ibrutinib blocks enzymes needed by cancer cells; rituximab targets CD20 on B cells and some cancers.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include immune system reactions, organ inflammation due to rituximab's targeting of B cells, possible blood disorders from lenalidomide affecting cell growth regulation, and enzyme inhibition-related issues caused by ibrutinib.
