The JULIET clinical trial is a global, multi-center Phase II registration trial investigating CTL019 (tisagenlecleucel) for use in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), the most common form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). The Novartis-sponsored JULIET trial was conducted in collaboration with the University of Pennsylvania to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CTL019 in adult patients with relapsed or refractory (r/r) DLBCL. Relapsed/refractory DLBCL is an aggressive (fast-growing), complex and difficult-to-treat disease, and patients with DLBCL often have worse prognosis than other forms of NHL.
