Study of SGR-1505 in Mature B-Cell Neoplasms
This study is looking at a new drug called SGR-1505 for people with certain types of B-cell lymphoma. B-cell lymphoma is a type of cancer that affects a specific kind of white blood cell. We're testing this medicine to see if it's safe to use and what the best dose might be. This is a very early-stage study, so the main goal is to understand its safety rather than fully cure the disease at this point. In the future, we also plan to explore how SGR-1505 works when combined with other cancer treatments. This study is for adults over 18 whose lymphoma hasn't responded to previous treatments or has come back.
At a glance
What is this study about?
This research study is about a new drug called SGR-1505. It's designed for people who have specific types of B-cell lymphoma. Lymphoma is a cancer that starts in infection-fighting cells of the immune system, called lymphocytes. B-cell lymphomas are a common type of lymphoma, and this study focuses on what are called 'mature' B-cell lymphomas, including conditions like certain types of Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia, and Mantle Cell Lymphoma.
The main purpose of this study, which is an early phase (Phase 1) trial, is to find out if SGR-1505 is safe for people to take. Researchers also want to work out the best dose of the drug – that is, a dose that is effective but also has acceptable side effects. We also want to understand how the body uses and gets rid of the drug, and if it has any early signs of affecting the cancer cells. This is a crucial first step before moving on to studies that would look more closely at how well the drug treats the cancer.
In the future, the research team plans to look at giving SGR-1505 along with other existing cancer treatments. This approach, combining different drugs, is often used to try and make treatments more effective. This part of the study would focus on specific types of B-cell cancers. Everyone involved in the study will be carefully monitored to make sure they are safe and to understand how their body responds to the treatment.
Key takeaways
- This study is testing a new drug, SGR-1505, for certain B-cell lymphomas.
- It's a Phase 1 study, so the main goal is to check safety and find the right dose.
- It's for adults whose lymphoma hasn't responded to previous treatments or has returned.
- Participants will take SGR-1505 by mouth and have regular check-ups and tests.
- Future plans include studying SGR-1505 with other cancer medicines.
- You can stop participating at any time.
Who may be eligible?
This study is looking for adults aged 18 and over who have been diagnosed with a specific type of B-cell lymphoma. This diagnosis must have been confirmed by medical tests. Importantly, your lymphoma needs to be what doctors call 'relapsed/refractory,' which means it hasn't responded well to previous treatments or it has come back after treatment. You also need to be fit enough for the study, with doctors checking your general health and that you have no more than mild symptoms preventing daily activities.
There are also some reasons why you might not be able to join. For example, if you need urgent cancer treatment right now, or if you've been diagnosed with another serious cancer in the last two years. If you're allergic to SGR-1505 or its ingredients, or if your lymphoma has spread to your brain or spinal cord and is causing symptoms, you wouldn't be able to take part. Researchers will also check if you have any other serious health conditions that could make taking the study drug risky.
Could this study suit you?
Answer these quick questions to see if you may be eligible. This is a guide only — the research team makes the final call.
- Are you 18 years old or older?
- Do you have a confirmed diagnosis of a 'mature' type of B-cell lymphoma?
- Has your lymphoma come back or not responded to previous treatments?
- Are you generally fit enough for daily activities? (Performance status of 0 or 1)
- Are you able to take medicine by mouth?
- Have you been free from any other serious cancer diagnosis in the last 2 years?
What does participation involve?
If you decide to take part in this study, you will be given the study drug, SGR-1505, which is taken by mouth. You will have regular visits to the hospital or clinic at the beginning of the study, which will involve blood tests to check how your body is handling the drug and to look for any side effects. You will also have scans and other tests to see how your lymphoma is responding. The exact number of visits and tests will be explained to you by the study team, but they will be more frequent at the start and then may become less frequent if you continue on the study. Your health will be closely monitored throughout your time in the study and potentially for a period afterwards. The total time you might participate in the study will vary depending on your response to the treatment and the study's design.

Common questions
What is SGR-1505?
SGR-1505 is a new drug being tested to see if it's safe and effective for people with certain types of B-cell lymphoma.
Why is this study important?
This study helps doctors learn more about new ways to treat B-cell lymphoma and aims to find a safe and effective dose of SGR-1505.
What does 'relapsed/refractory' mean?
It means your lymphoma either didn't respond to previous treatments or it came back after treatment.
Will I get better if I join this study?
We can't guarantee you'll get better. The main goal of this early study is to check the drug's safety, though we'll also look for signs it might be helping.
Can I stop being in the study?
Yes, you can choose to leave the study at any time, and it won't affect your future medical care.
