Refractory Indolent B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

This phase II trial compares the safety, side effects and effectiveness of reduced dose radiation therapy to standard of care dose radiation in treating patients with indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Standard of care radiation treatment for indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma is usually delivered in 12 treatments. Studies have shown indolent lymphoma to be sensitive to radiation treatment, however, larger doses have higher rates of toxicities. A reduced radiation dose may be safe, tolerable and/or effective compared to standard of care radiation dose in treating patients with indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

This phase I/II trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose/regimen of ST-067 in combination with CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy (liso-cel) and how well it works in treating patients with large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent) or LBCL that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). ST-067 is an engineered variant of the human cytokine interleukin-18 that may help the immune system kill cancer cells. Lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) is an autologous CAR T-cell therapy prepared using the person's own immune system (a group of cells, tissues, and organs that protect the body from attack by bacteria, viruses, and cancer cells) to fight the cancer. Giving ST-067 in combination with liso-cel may better treat patients with relapsed/refractory LBCL.
