Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
The study follows a Simon's two-stage phase II trial design to evaluate the safety and efficacy of tafasitamab added to rituximab and lenalidomide for two treatment-naïve, parallel, independent cohorts: follicular lymphoma (FL) and marginal zone lymphoma (MZ). Each cohort, FL and MZ, will be evaluated separately. This study is presented to the patient and consent is signed prior to the initiation of treatment for their primary malignancy.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Tafasitamab, Rituximab and Lenalidomide in people with Follicular Lymphoma and Marginal Zone Lymphoma, run by Masonic Cancer Center, University of Minnesota at 1 site in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 23 inclusion and 15 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Aug 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Sanjal Desai, MD (612-624-9452, desai171@umn.edu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Complete response (CR) (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Aug 2026.
