Study Summary

This trial studies the effects of acalabrutinib on patients with mantle cell lymphoma who cannot tolerate ibrutinib.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with mantle cell lymphoma who had adverse reactions to ibrutinib. They must have resolved toxicities, acceptable blood counts, organ function within certain limits, no history of certain BTK mutations or progressive disease on ibrutinib, and not be pregnant or breastfeeding. Eligible participants should also agree to use effective contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests acalabrutinib's effectiveness in treating mantle cell lymphoma in patients intolerant to ibrutinib. It examines whether acalabrutinib can halt cancer growth by inhibiting enzymes necessary for the proliferation of cancer cells.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include bleeding risks, heart rhythm problems, infections due to immune system suppression, liver enzyme changes indicating potential liver damage, and other common chemotherapy-related side effects like fatigue and digestive issues.
