Overview
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of bendamustine combined with chidamide and lenalidomide in R/R PTCL patients.
Description
This study will enroll relapsed/refractory (R/R) peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) patients aged over 18 years who have received at least one line of prior systemic therapy. Participants will receive combination therapy with bendamustine, chidamide, and lenalidomide (BCL regimen), with dose reduction for patients >70 years old. After 4 cycles of BCL regimen, patients demonstrating stable disease(SD) or progressive disease (PD) will be withdrawn from the study. Patients achieving partial remission(PR) or complete remission(CR) will receive another 2 cycles of BCL regimen followed by stratification treatment as followings:
Cohort 1 (ASCT-eligible): Responders will proceed to autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) consolidation
Cohort 2 (ASCT-ineligible): Responders will receive oral chidamide maintenance therapy (minimum 2 years or until progression/unacceptable toxicity)
