A Randomized Double-Blind Phase III Study of Ibrutinib During and Following Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation Versus Placebo in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma of the Activated B-Cell Subtype

National Cancer Institute (NCI)·interventional·Posted May 13, 2015·Updated Jun 30, 2026

In Brief

A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Autologous Bone Marrow Transplantation, Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation, and 9 other interventions for Recurrent Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma Activated B-Cell Type and Refractory Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma Activated B-Cell Type. Active but no longer recruiting, targeting 94 participants across 281 sites in 2 countries.

Detailed Summary

This randomized phase III trial studies ibrutinib to see how well it works compared to placebo when given before and after stem cell transplant in treating patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma that has returned after a period of improvement (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Before transplant, stem cells are taken from patients and stored. Patients then receive high doses of chemotherapy to kill cancer cells and make room for healthy cells. After treatment, the stem cells are then returned to the patient to replace the blood-forming cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy. Ibrutinib is a drug that may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking a protein that is needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether adding ibrutinib to chemotherapy before and after stem cell transplant may help the transplant work better in patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

Arms & Interventions

Arm I (ibrutinib, chemotherapy, autoHCT)experimental

CONDITIONING REGIMEN: Investigators may choose to use either the BEAMi or CBVi regimen. BEAMi: Patients receive ibrutinib PO on days -6 to -1 or days -7 to -2 if a day of rest is planned, carmustine IV over 2 hours on day -6, etoposide IV BID over 1-2 hours and cytarabine IV BID over 1-2 hours on days -5 to -2, and melphalan IV over 20-30 minutes on day -1. CBVi: Patients receive ibrutinib PO on days -6 to -1 or days -7 to -2 if a day of rest is planned, carmustine IV over 2 hours on day -6, etoposide IV over 4 hours on day -4, and cyclophosphamide IV on day -2. TRANSPLANT: In both arms, patients undergo autologous hematopoietic progenitor cell or bone marrow transplant on day 0. CONTINUATION REGIMEN: Beginning 30-60 days after transplant, patients receive ibrutinib PO on days 1-28. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 12 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

CONDITIONING REGIMEN: Patients receive placebo PO on days -6 to -1 and receive 1 of the 2 conditioning regimens as in Arm I. TRANSPLANT: Patients undergo autologous hematopoietic progenitor cell or bone marrow transplant on day 0. CONTINUATION REGIMEN: Beginning 30-60 days after transplant, patients receive placebo PO on days 1-28. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 12 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients experiencing disease progression may crossover Arm I.
