Study Arms (1)
Zanubrutinib + Bendamustine + Rituximab
EXPERIMENTALZanubrutinib will be taken orally once daily on days 1-28 of cycles 1-15. Bendamustine will be given by intravenous infusion over about 10 to 60 minutes on days 1 and 2 of cycles 1 to 4. Rituximab will be given by intravenous infusion over about 30 minutes on day 1 of cycles 1 to 4. Drug diaries will be provided to participants to document information about the study treatment being taken.
Interventions
A potent, specific, and irreversible Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Clinicopathological diagnosis of waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM) per the second international workshop on waldenström macroglobulinemia (IWWM2) criteria
- Presence of any MYD88 and CXCR4 mutation status, including MYD88 L265P mutation plus CXCR4 wild type, MYD88 L265P mutation plus CXCR4 mutation, or MYD88 wild type
- Meeting criteria for treatment per IWWM2 criteria. At least one of the following:
- Constitutional Symptoms (at least one of the following)
- Recurrent fever
- Night sweats
- Fatigue
- Weight loss
- Progressive or symptomatic lymphadenopathy or splenomegaly
- Hemoglobin ≤ 10 g/dL
- Platelet count ≤ 100 k/uL
- Hyperviscosity syndrome
- Symptomatic peripheral neuropathy
- Systemic amyloidosis
- Renal insufficiency
- +16 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Any serious medical condition, laboratory abnormality, uncontrolled intercurrent illness, or psychiatric illness/social condition that would prevent the participant from signing the informed consent form
- Female participants who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant or breastfeed while enrolled in this study
- Participants with known CNS involvement by WM
- Participants with known history of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)
- Known active hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection based on criteria below:
- Hepatitis B virus (HBV): Patients with positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) are excluded. Patients with positive hepatitis B core antibody (antiHBc) and negative HBsAg require hepatitis B polymerase chain reaction (PCR) evaluation before enrollment. Patients who are hepatitis B PCR positive will be excluded.
- Hepatitis C virus (HCV): positive hepatitis C antibody. If positive hepatitis C antibody result, patient will need to have a negative result for hepatitis C ribonucleic acid (RNA) before enrollment. Patients who are hepatitis C RNA positive will be excluded.
- Concurrent systemic immunosuppressant therapy. Systemic steroids at doses \<20mg prednisone per day are permitted.
- Active and/or ongoing autoimmune anemia and/or autoimmune thrombocytopenia (eg, idiopathic thrombocytopenia purpura).
- Concurrent administration of warfarin or warfarin derivatives.
- Vaccinated with live, attenuated vaccines within 4 weeks of first dose of study drug.
- Active uncontrolled systemic bacterial, viral, fungal or parasitic infection (except for fungal nail infection), or other clinically significant active disease process which in the opinion of the Investigator and the Sponsor makes it undesirable for the patient to participate in the trial. Screening for chronic conditions is not required. Active uncontrolled systemic bacterial, viral, fungal or parasitic infection (except for fungal nail infection), or other clinically significant active disease process which in the opinion of the Investigator and the Sponsor makes it undesirable for the patient to participate in the trial. Screening for chronic conditions is not required.
- Major surgery within 4 weeks of first dose of study drug.
- History of severe bleeding disorder such as hemophilia A, hemophilia B, or history of spontaneous bleeding requiring blood transfusion or other medical intervention. History of stroke or intracranial hemorrhage within 6 months before first dose of study drug.
- Participants with inability to swallow pills.
