This is a study for patients with a type of blood cancer called large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) who have a mutation in a gene called TP53. This gene mutation often makes the cancer harder to treat with standard therapies.
CAR T-cell therapy is a treatment that uses a patient's own immune cells to fight cancer. However, some patients relapse (the cancer comes back) after CAR T-cell therapy. This study will test whether taking two drugs - chidamide (a tablet taken by mouth) and a PD-1 inhibitor (given by intravenous infusion) - as maintenance therapy after CAR T-cell therapy can help keep the cancer from coming back.
Participants in this study will receive CAR T-cell therapy, followed by maintenance treatment with chidamide combined with a PD-1 inhibitor. Doctors will closely monitor participants for how well the treatment works and for any side effects. The study will take place at a single hospital, and all participants will receive the same treatment.
The main goal of the study is to find out if this maintenance treatment is effective and safe for patients with TP53-mutant large B-cell lymphoma.

Exclusion Criteria:
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.
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.
Relapsed: the illness came back after treatment had worked. Refractory: it did not respond to treatment, or stopped responding while still on it.
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.
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.
The study doctor’s estimate of how long someone is likely to live. Criteria use it so that people can stay in the study long enough for it to answer its question.
Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.
Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.
The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.
“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.
A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.
Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.
The share of blood the heart’s main pumping chamber (the left ventricle) pushes out with each beat, measured by an echocardiogram (heart ultrasound) or a MUGA scan. About 50–70% is normal.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).
Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.
Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.
Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.
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.
The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.
Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.

Participants will receive CAR T-cell therapy as planned by the treating physician. After CAR T-cell infusion, participants will receive maintenance therapy with oral chidamide combined with an intravenous PD-1 inhibitor, continued until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, or completion of the planned maintenance duration. Treatment response and adverse events will be monitored regularly.
Drug: chidamide+PD-1 inhibitor
Chidamide is an oral subtype-selective histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor. Participants will take chidamide orally at the dose of 20mg twice week and schedule specified in the protocol, starting after CAR T-cell infusion, and continuing until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or completion of the planned maintenance duration. Sintilimab is a humanized anti-programmed death-1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody administered by intravenous infusion. Participants will receive it at the dose of 200mg/21days, in combination with oral chidamide, until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or completion of the planned maintenance duration.
