About this trial

This is a three-arm, multicenter, randomized controlled trial. Eligible participants will be randomized to one of three induction regimens via stratified block randomization at a 2:2:1 ratio.

Induction regimens:

Arm A: Teniposide + orelabrutinib + rituximab + methotrexate (MTX) + dexamethasone, administered in 21-day cycles.

Arm B: Orelabrutinib + rituximab + MTX + dexamethasone, administered in 21-day cycles.

Arm C: Rituximab + MTX + dexamethasone, administered in 21-day cycles. Participants achieving complete response (CR) or unconfirmed complete response (CRu) post-induction will proceed to consolidation therapy, with options including: MTX + rituximab (once every 3 months for 1 year); high-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT); dose-reduced whole brain radiotherapy; or other modalities (as determined by the investigator).

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Teniposide

    Drug

    This trial enrolls eligible participants (meeting inclusion and exclusion criteria), who will be randomized to one of three induction regimens via stratified block randomization at a 2:2:1 ratio. Stratification factors include age (≤60 vs. \>60 years) and ECOG performance status (0-1 vs. 2-3). Within each stratum, blocks of size 15 will be used to ensure balanced allocation. Induction regimens: Arm A: Teniposide, orelabrutinib, rituximab, methotrexate (MTX) and dexamethasone, administered in 21-day cycles. Arm B: Orelabrutinib, rituximab, MTX and dexamethasone, administered in 21-day cycles. Arm C: Rituximab, MTX and dexamethasone, administered in 21-day cycles. Following induction therapy, participants achieving complete response (CR) or unconfirmed complete response (CRu) will proceed to consolidation therapy.
