Brief Summary: This phase Ib trial seeks to find out the best dose and possible side effects and/or benefits of zanubrutinib in combination with the R-PolaCHP in treating patients with newly diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Zanubrutinib is designed to block a protein called Bruton Tyrosine Kinase in order to stop cancer growth. R-CHOP is the acronym for the combination of five drugs: rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone. It is the most widely used chemoimmunotherapy regimen for DLBCL and is considered the standard-of-care treatment for patients with DLBCL. Three of the drugs in R-CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin and vincristine) are chemotherapy drugs. Rituximab is a type of immunotherapy and prednisone is a type of steroids.
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. Determine the safety, toxicity profile and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of zanubrutinib in combination with ZaR-PolaCHP (ZaR-PolaCHP) for patients with previously untreated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the objective response rate (ORR) (complete and partial responses), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of ZaR-CHOP in patients treated at the RP2D. II. Provide descriptive data on treatment exposure to zanubrutinib and R-CHOP including treatment discontinuation rate and relative dose intensity. EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES: I. Examine archival tumor samples attained before starting treatment on trial to determine the clinical outcomes of molecularly defined DLBCL subtypes in patients treated with ZaR-Pola-CHP or ZaR-CHOP. II. Measure circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) (ctDNA) to correlate its presence with response by positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. OUTLINE: This is a dose de-escalation study of zanubrutinib and fixed-dose R-CHOP regimen followed by a dose-expansion study. Patients receive zanubrutinib orally (PO) once or twice daily on days 1-21, rituximab intravenously (IV) on day 1, cyclophosphamide IV on day 1, doxorubicin hydrochloride IV on day 1, vincristine sulfate IV on day 1, and prednisone PO QD on days 1-5. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 6 months for 2 years.
