|---|---|---|
| Glofit_CART | Experimental | After undergoing leukapheresis, patients will receive treatment in three phases: the bridging phase, the CAR-T treatment phase, and the consolidation phase.
Bridging Phase:
All patients will receive two cycles of Glofitamab treatment. On Day 1 of Cycle 1, patients will receive 1000 mg of Obinutuzumab as pretreatment.
After the completion of Cycle 2, patients will undergo an assessment.
CAR-T Treatment Phase:
Participants will receive lymphodepletion therapy with the FLU/CY regimen from Day -5 to Day -3.
On Day 0, patients will receive the CAR-T cell infusion.
Consolidation Phase:
Based on the efficacy assessment on Day 28, the subsequent treatment plan will be determined: Patients achieving complete response (CR) will not receive additional Glofitamab treatment.
Patients with partial response (PR), stable disease (SD), or progressive disease (PD) will continue to receive Glofitamab treatment for four additional cycles. Receives: Drug: Glofitamab; Drug: Obinutuzumab; Drug: Axicabtagene Ciloleucel; Drug: Relmacabtagene autoleucel (relma-cel) |

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Glofitamab, Obinutuzumab and Axicabtagene Ciloleucel in people with DLBCL - Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma, run by Ruijin Hospital.
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 25 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jan 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
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?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Complete Response Rate (CRR) (time frame: Baseline up to the end of treatment (EOT) (approximately 4 months)). 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 8 Jan 2026.
