Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Tislelizumab in Combination With Lenalidomide

Arm Description

On the day of tislelizumab infusion, lenalidomide should be taken 30 minutes after the end of tislelizumab infusion

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Overall Response Rate (ORR), Investigator-Assessed
Overall response was determined on the basis of investigator assessments according to lymphoma response to immunomodulatory therapy criteria (LYRIC) for Malignant Lymphoma, 2016. Tumor assessments were performed with CT/MRI with or without PET.
The optimal dosage of lenalidomide
Maximum tolerable dose(MTD)and dose-limiting toxicity(DLT)of lenalidomide will be conducted in Phase Ib clinical studies. MTD and DLT is defined as protocol-defined lenalidomide related events.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Progression-free Survival
The time between the start of randomization and the progression of the tumor (any aspect) or (for any reason) death
Overall Survival
Time from randomization to death for any reason Time from randomization to death for any reason Time from randomization to death for any reason Time from randomization to death for any reason
Duration of Response
The time from the first assessment of CR or PR to PD (progressive disease) or death from any cause
Time To Progression
Time from randomization to PD
Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)
An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered related to the pharmaceutical product. Preexisting conditions which worsen during a study are also considered as adverse events.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Aim of this study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of tislelizumab in combination with lenalidomide in in patients with relapsed or refractory Elderly Patients with non-GCB Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma
Detailed Description
Elderly patients with relapsed /refractory non-GCB diffuse large B cell lymphoma usually have a bad prognosis. These patients cannot be treated successfully or tolerated the conventional chemotherapy. Lenalidomide has a unique therapeutic effect in Non-GCB DLBCL. Some studies have shown that the combination of lenalidomide and PD-1 antibody shows a synergistic effect in the exploration of DLBCL, and the patients are well tolerated.The investigators will evaluate the efficacy and safety of tislelizumab in combination with lenalidomide in the elderly patients with relapsed refractory non-GCB DLBCL failed from second line chemotherapy.
