About this study
Official title: A Prospective, Open-label, Single-arm Multicenter Clinical Study of Zanubrutinib, Obinutuzumab, and Lenalidomide (ZGR) in the Treatment of Untreated Follicular Lymphoma
This study is planned to prospectively evaluates the efficacy and safety of the zanubrutinib, obinutuzumab, and lenalidomide (ZGR) combination regimen in treatment-naïve follicular lymphoma (FL) patients in a Chinese population.
Read the detailed description
Regarding chemotherapy-free first-line treatment regimens, current targeted therapies primarily focus on lenalidomide combined with anti-CD20 antibodies. Chemotherapy-free regimens such as rituximab plus lenalidomide (R²) or obinutuzumab plus lenalidomide (O-Len) have been recommended for clinical use. Encouraged by the promising efficacy of dual-targeted therapies, the potential of triple-combination therapy-comprising a BTK inhibitor (BTKi), an anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody, and lenalidomide-has garnered increasing attention in untreated hematologic malignancies. Most existing studies have concentrated on BTKi combined with rituximab and lenalidomide (e.g., ibrutinib + R²).
Given current clinical needs and available evidence, this study aims to explore a novel chemotherapy-free triple regimen: zanubrutinib combined with obinutuzumab and lenalidomide (ZGR) in treatment-naïve follicular lymphoma (FL) patients. This combination is expected to provide a new treatment paradigm for untreated FL, offering high antitumor efficacy while minimizing toxicity, thereby improving patients' quality of life.

A Phase 2 study testing Induction Therapy: Zanubrutinib, obinutuzumab, lenalidomide and Maintenance therapy: Zanubrutinib, lenalidomide in people with Follicular Lymphoma, run by Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, China at 2 sites in China.
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 20 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 13 May 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 2 sites in China. 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 Shuhua Yi, Dr (+86-022-23909106, yishuhua@ihcams.ac.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Objective response rate,ORR (time frame: up to the end of 6 cycles of treatment(each cycle is 28 days)]). 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 13 May 2026.
