Summary
This trial will study the safety and effectiveness of a new medicine to treat DLBCL before receiving CAR-T cell therapy.
Who is the study for?
Adults with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma planning to receive CAR-T cell therapy at Moffitt Cancer Center, who can't have stem cell transplants due to active lymphoma. They must understand and consent to the study, meet certain blood test criteria, agree to use contraception, and not be pregnant or nursing. Excluded are those with prior CAR-T therapy, severe itacitinib reactions, strong CYP3A4 inhibitors usage, uncontrolled infections or cardiac disease, unstable arrhythmias on medication within 2 weeks of screening.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the safety and effectiveness of taking a daily oral dose of itacitinib before receiving axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) CAR-T cell therapy for treating diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. It aims to see if pre-modulating with itacitinib improves outcomes.
What are the potential side effects?
Itacitinib may cause side effects like infection risk increase due to immune system suppression; gastrointestinal issues such as nausea or diarrhea; liver enzyme changes; and potential blood clotting problems. The CAR T-cell therapy could lead to cytokine release syndrome (flu-like symptoms), neurological events (confusion or seizures), low blood cells counts increasing infection risk.
