Brief Summary

Primary central nervous system diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PCNSL-DLBCL) is a highly aggressive malignancy accounting for over 80% of primary CNS lymphomas, with an annual incidence of 0.4-0.6 per 100,000 people globally and a rising trend in immunocompetent patients. First-line high-dose methotrexate-based chemotherapy causes severe toxicities and nearly 50% of patients relapse within 1-2 years, developing relapsed/refractory (R/R) disease. Treatment options for R/R PCNSL are scarce, with low response rates, median survival of only 3-6 months, and 5-year survival below 5%. The blood-brain barrier and tumor heterogeneity further worsen outcomes. This prospective, multicenter, single-arm phase II study evaluates the efficacy and safety of pomalidomide, PD-1 inhibitor, and selinexor (PPS) in R/R PCNSL, aiming to provide a new effective treatment.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • best overall response rate (ORR) as of 6 cycles of PPS

    Overall response rate means sum of complete response rate and partial response rate

    From the day of initiation of PPS treatment to 3 weeks after 6 cycles of PPS treatment (the length of each cycle is 3 weeks)

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Best Complete Response rate (CR) as of 6 cycles of PPS

    From the day of initiation of PPS treatment to 3 weeks after 6 cycles of PPS treatment (the length of each cycle is 3 weeks)

  • Progression free survival (PFS)

    From the day of initiation of PPS as of 24 months

  • overall survival (OS)

    From the day of initiation of PPS as of 24 months

  • Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events [Safety and Tolerability]

    From the day of initiation of PPS as of 24 months

Study Arms (1)

PPS group

EXPERIMENTAL

All enrolled patients may initiate induction therapy after completing baseline imaging and relevant laboratory examinations: Pomalidomide: 4 mg on days 1-14, every 3 weeks (q3w), for a total of 6 cycles; Selinexor: 60 mg on days 1, 8, and 15, q3w, for a total of 6 cycles; PD-1 monoclonal antibody: tislelizumab 200 mg on day 1, q3w, for a total of 6 cycles. During induction therapy, patients who achieve complete response (CR) may discontinue from the study to receive consolidation therapy with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) or dose-optimized whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT), at the investigator's discretion or the patient's choice. For patients not discontinuing for consolidation therapy, maintenance therapy may be administered after 6 cycles of induction therapy: pomalidomide 4 mg every other day (qod) plus selinexor 40-60 mg once weekly (qw), until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
