Summary

This is a clinical trial to evaluate the feasibility and safety of giving tazemetostat followed by standard of care CAR T cell infusion in previously treated diffuse large b-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), follicular lymphoma (FL), and mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). The investigators hypothesis is that this combination has the potential to significantly improve the ability of CART cells to recognize and kill lymphoma cells without a significant impact on safety. Participants will receive the tazemetostat pills before and after receiving their CAR T cell therapy, for up to 12 months after CAR T cell administration. Patients will be followed for up to 5 years.

DRUG

Tazemetostat Pill

Participants will take 800 mg of tazemetostat twice a day starting 7 days before apheresis and continue to take tazemetostat until lymphodepletion, which is chemotherapy given prior to receiving the CAR T cells. Participants will stop taking tazemetostat after lymphodepletion until after CAR T cell infusion. Once lymphocyte counts increase, tazemetostat will be resumed and tazemetostat will be taken for 6 - 12 months, depending on participant response.
