Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Adult subjects age ≥18 years
  • (ECOG) Performance Status of 0 or 1
  • confirmed evidence of T-cell lymphoma
  • .
  • Adequate organ function.
  • At least 2 standard therapies for advanced or recurrent disease or had a disease for which there is no more than one established therapy.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Treatment with systemic medication.
  • History of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
  • History of primary immunodeficiency, solid organ transplantation.
  • History of opportunistic infection within 180 days of starting study drug.

  • Concomitant use of strong inhibitors or inducers of .
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(7)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

ECOG performance status

A scale of how much an illness limits everyday activity. For people being assessed to join a study, scores run from 0 (fully active) to 4; lower is more active.

0
Fully active, no restrictions.
1
Limited in strenuous activity, but walking and able to do light work, such as housework or office work.
2
Walking and able to look after yourself, but unable to work; up and about more than half of waking hours.
3
Able to look after yourself only in part; in bed or a chair more than half of waking hours.
4
Unable to look after yourself at all; in bed or a chair all day.

Studies most often ask for 0–1 or 0–2. Your doctor gives the score; the WHO scale uses the same steps. The full scale also has 5, which records death.

Histologically or cytologically confirmed

The diagnosis was confirmed by looking at a sample under a microscope: tissue from a biopsy or surgery (histology), or cells from a fluid or needle sample (cytology).

Your pathology report is the document that shows this.

Measurable disease

The amount of disease can be tracked with a defined measurement, so the study can see whether it shrinks or grows. It might be a tumour measured on a scan or, in some blood cancers such as myeloma, a marker measured in blood or urine.

The criteria or the study team say which measurement counts — having no tumour visible on a scan does not by itself rule you out.

Immunosuppression

A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.

Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.

Allogeneic and autologous transplant

Stem cell (bone marrow) transplants. Allogeneic uses cells from a donor; autologous uses your own cells, collected earlier and given back.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

CYP3A (CYP3A4) inhibitors and inducers

CYP3A is a group of enzymes, mainly CYP3A4, in the liver and gut that break down many medicines. Some medicines, supplements and foods (grapefruit, St John’s wort) slow them down or speed them up, which changes how much of a study drug stays in the body.

Studies list them so they can be avoided or switched; bring a list of everything you take, including supplements.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    CPI-818 Dose Escalation

    Participants will receive CPI-818 capsule, orally, twice per day at an assigned dose, till disease progression, complete response or remission (CR) for \>2 months or if dose determined to be unsafe.

    Drug: CPI-818

  • Experimental
    CPI-818 Dose Expansion phase

    Participants with different T-cell lymphoma sub-types will receive CPI-818 capsules at the specific dose selected from the Dose escalation phase of the study. CPI-818 capsules at the selected dose will be taken orally, twice per day until disease progression or CR for \> 2 months.

    Drug: CPI-818

Interventions

  • Interleukin-2 inducible T-cell Kinase Inhibitor

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence, nature, and severity of adverse events following treatment with CPI 818 to establish the safety and tolerability with increasing dose

    Time frame: First dose until 30 days after treatment stop

  2. Incidence and nature of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) of CPI 818 to establish either the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or the maximum administered dose (MAD) of CPI 818

    Time frame: Up to approximately 21 days after first dose

Secondary outcomes

  1. Area under the curve (AUC) of CPI-818 in blood samples to evaluate the pharmacokinetic profile of CPI 818

    Time frame: Day 1, 2, 8, 15 of Cycle 1, Day 1 and 2 of Cycle 3, and Day 1 for all even number Cycles. Each Cycle is 21 days.

  2. Maximum serum concentration (Cmax) of CPI-818 in blood samples to evaluate the pharmacokinetic profile of CPI 818

    Time frame: Day 1, 2, 8, 15 of Cycle 1, Day 1 and 2 of Cycle 3, and Day 1 for all even number Cycles. Each Cycle is 21 days.

  3. Objective response rate per Laguno Classification for CTCL and Consensus Statement for Response for CTCL to assess the anti-tumor activity of CPI 818 in subjects with R/R T cell lymphoma

    Time frame: From start of treatment through end of study treatment, up to approximately 24 months

  4. Evaluate total percentage of tumor gene expression in post-treatment blood and tumor samples to evaluate pharmacodynamic changes with treatment.

    Time frame: Day 1, 2, 8, 15 of Cycle 1, Day 1 and 2 of Cycle 3, and Day 1 for all even number Cycles. Each Cycle is 21 days.

  5. Evaluate overall percentage of malignant cells in post-treatment blood and tumor samples to evaluate pharmacodynamic changes with treatment.

    Time frame: Day 1, 2, 8, 15 of Cycle 1, Day 1 and 2 of Cycle 3, and Day 1 for all even number Cycles. Each Cycle is 21 days.

ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedDate before it movedWhere the date was before it movedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started May 2019 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Dec 2026, 91 months after the start.

Of 59 phase 1 interventional studies under Lymphoma, T-Cell, half reached primary completion within 57 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 26 and three quarters within 99. This study's planned 91 months is above that.

Since we started tracking on Sep 25, 2026, the dates moved once, on Oct 22, 2026: primary completion Apr 2026 → Dec 2026 and completion Apr 2026 → Dec 2026.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
