About this trial
This is a single-center, single-arm, phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Anti-PD-1 antibody(Sintilimab) plus HDAC inhibitor(Chidamide) in patients with relapsed/refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (r/r PTCL).

Disqualifiers

Treatments tested in this trial
PD-1 antibody+ HDAC inhibitor
DrugPatients receive anti-PD-1 antibody Sintilimab+ HDAC inhibitor Chidamide three weeks for a cycle, detailed as follows: * Anti-PD-1 antibody (Sintilimab): Fixed dose of 200 mg every 3 weeks, intravenous drip (without pretreatment), infusion time: 30 minutes (no less than 20 mins, no more than 60 mins), the maximum treatment period is 2 years (up to 35 doses), complete remission(CR)patients confirmed by imaging assessment can be considered off anti-PD-1 treatment after 12 treatment cycles. * Chidamide: Chidamide is administered orally at a dose of 30mg (initial dose). It is recommended to be administered within 0.5h after a meal with a fixed time. Chidamide will be given until disease progression or intolerant toxicity. The maximum treatment is 2 years. If chidamide therapy requires to be continued over 2 years due to clinical benefit, the prescription/decision should be made after discussion with the principal investigator.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Progression Free Survival (PFS)
Time from the data of enrollment to of disease progression, or death of any cause, or date of lost follow-up, whichever comes first, otherwise subject data were censored at time last known disease free.
Secondary outcomes
Overall Survival (OS)
Time from the date of enrollment to data of death from any cause, or date of lost follow-up, whichever comes first, and otherwise censored at time last known alive.
incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events [Safety and Tolerability]
All the adverse events of the patients related will be assessed and graded by NCI CTCAE v 5.0\]
Other outcomes
biomarker
PD-L1, HDAC 3/4/10 expression, circulation tumor DNA(ctDNA)
