Current Clinical Trial Landscape

Active research areas in 2026:

CD20×CD3 bispecific antibodies moving to first-line: epcoritamab, glofitamab, mosunetuzumab, odronextamab
CAR-T cell therapy: axi-cel, liso-cel, tisa-cel — now testing earlier lines and combinations
ADCs: zilovertamab vedotin (ROR1), polatuzumab vedotin combinations
Next-gen BTK inhibitors and degraders: pirtobrutinib, NX-5948
Bispecific + lenalidomide combinations for indolent NHL

Standard of care: DLBCL: R-CHOP (first-line), CAR-T or bispecific (relapsed). Follicular: rituximab-based combos, then bispecifics or lenalidomide+rituximab. Mantle cell: BTK inhibitors (ibrutinib, acalabrutinib, zanubrutinib). T-cell NHL: CHOP-based, then options limited.

Recruiting Trials by NHL Subtype

Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL)

The most common aggressive NHL — bispecifics and CAR-T are transforming relapsed disease:

First-line:
- NCT05820841 - Acalabrutinib + R-miniCHOP in older adults with untreated DLBCL (Phase 3, activated 2026-06-30 — BTKi + reduced-intensity R-CHP for the frail-elderly under-studied DLBCL population)
- NCT06091865 - Odronextamab + chemo vs rituximab + chemo in DLBCL (Phase 3, activated 2026-06-17 — head-to-head Regeneron CD20xCD3 bispecific chemo-combination challenge to R-CHOP standard)
Relapsed/refractory — bispecifics:
- NCT06084936 - Glofitamab monotherapy vs investigator's choice in R/R DLBCL (Phase 3)
- NCT07215585 - AZD0486 1L therapy for elderly or unfit patients with LBCL (Phase 3, CD19xCD3 bispecific 1L entrant)
ADCs:
- NCT05139017 - Zilovertamab vedotin (ROR1 ADC) + R-CHP in untreated DLBCL (Phase 3)
- NCT06717347 - Zilovertamab vedotin + R-CHP in DLBCL (Phase 3)
CAR-T:
- NCT07502118 - NexCAR19 (talikabtagene autoleucel) in R/R B-cell malignancies (Phase 3)
- NCT07479797 - KITE-753 vs Axicabtagene Ciloleucel in R/R LBCL (Phase 3, the first head-to-head Phase 3 between next-gen CD19 CAR-T candidates and the FDA-approved standard)
- NCT07188558 - Ronde-cel vs investigator's choice CD19 CAR T-cell therapy in large B-cell lymphoma (Phase 3, activated 2026-06-09 — second head-to-head Phase 3 between a next-gen CD19 CAR-T candidate and the FDA-approved standard, joining KITE-753 in the R/R LBCL CAR-T comparator race)

Follicular Lymphoma + Marginal Zone Lymphoma

Indolent but incurable — bispecifics and BTK inhibitors offer new options:

- NCT06549595 - Surovatamig + rituximab in previously untreated FL (Phase 3)
- NCT06191744 - Subcutaneous epcoritamab + rituximab + lenalidomide in FL (Phase 3)
- NCT06149286 - Odronextamab + lenalidomide in R/R FL (Phase 3)
- NCT06091254 - Odronextamab vs rituximab + chemo/lenalidomide in FL / MZL (Phase 3, activated 2026-06-26 — Regeneron CD20xCD3 bispecific head-to-head monotherapy challenge to rituximab-containing chemo backbones)
- NCT05100862 - Zanubrutinib + anti-CD20 vs lenalidomide + rituximab in R/R follicular or marginal zone lymphoma (Phase 3, activated 2026-06-19 — BTKi + CD20 challenge to R2 standard in indolent B-cell NHL)
- NCT06337318 - Rituximab vs Mosunetuzumab head-to-head in low tumor-burden FL (Phase 3, the first FL Phase 3 testing if a CD20×CD3 bispecific can replace rituximab monotherapy in low-burden setting)

Mantle Cell Lymphoma

BTK inhibitor resistance is the key challenge — next-gen agents and bispecifics:

- NCT05976763 - Continuous vs intermittent zanubrutinib for MCL (Phase 3)
- NCT07409428 - HMPL-760 + R-GemOx vs placebo + R-GemOx in R/R MCL (Phase 3)

Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma (PTCL)

Rare and aggressive — few approved options beyond CHOP:

- NCT06561048 - Soquelitinib vs standard in R/R peripheral T-cell lymphoma (Phase 3)
- NCT06522737 - Duvelisib vs gemcitabine or bendamustine in R/R PTCL (Phase 3)
- NCT07300514 - Golidocitinib maintenance for PTCL (Phase 3)

Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL)

- NCT06470451 - Topical HyBryte vs placebo for CTCL (Phase 3)

Cross-Subtype (BTK Inhibitors)

- NCT05254743 - Pirtobrutinib vs ibrutinib in CLL (Phase 3)
