Inclusion criteria

  • Patients must meet all of the following criteria to be eligible for enrollment in this study:
  • The patient voluntarily agrees to participate in this study and provides written informed consent;
  • Age ≥ 18 years;
  • Histopathologically confirmed diagnosis of extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) type;
  • Involved sites include but are not limited to: orbit, parotid gland, thyroid, Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)-negative gastric MALT (in this study, H. pylori-negative gastric MALT is defined as negative results on both gastric mucosal tissue biopsy and serum H. pylori antibody test within the past 6 months; for patients with unknown prior H. pylori status who have received anti-H. pylori therapy, a positive serum H. pylori antibody test is permissible, provided that a subsequent gastroscopy or urea breath test confirms negativity);
  • Lugano stage I-II disease;
  • Able to swallow tablets normally;
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG-PS) score of 0-2;
  • No prior radiotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy for MALT lymphoma;
  • Life expectancy ≥ 12 months;
  • Adequate major organ function, meeting the following criteria:
  • Hematological parameters: absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.0 × 10⁹/L; platelet count ≥ 50 × 10⁹/L; hemoglobin ≥ 80 g/L;
  • Biochemical parameters: total bilirubin < 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN); alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 3 × ULN; serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 × ULN or calculated creatinine clearance > 50 mL/min;
  • Female patients of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 72 hours prior to the first dose of study treatment and must agree to use highly effective methods of contraception during the study period and for 120 days after the last dose. Male patients with female partners of childbearing potential must be surgically sterile or agree to use highly effective methods of contraception during the study period and for 120 days after the last dose.

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients who meet any of the following criteria will be excluded from enrollment in this study:
  • Major surgery (excluding diagnostic surgery) within 4 weeks prior to enrollment;
  • Previous or concurrent diagnosis of another malignancy, with the exception of adequately treated basal cell carcinoma of the skin, carcinoma in situ of the cervix, or carcinoma in situ of the breast;
  • Active chronic hepatitis B infection, defined as detectable HBV DNA;
  • Active HIV or syphilis infection;
  • Presence of severe concomitant medical conditions or circumstances that may affect the patient's eligibility or safety during the study period;
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women;
  • Presence of active psychiatric disorders or other psychological conditions that may impair the patient's ability to provide informed consent or understand the study procedures;
  • Patients considered by the investigator to have poor compliance; Pathologically or radiologically confirmed distant metastasis; Other factors that, in the investigator's judgment, may affect the study results or necessitate premature termination of the study, including but not limited to alcohol abuse, drug abuse, other severe diseases (including psychiatric disorders) requiring concomitant treatment, significant laboratory abnormalities, or family/social circumstances that may compromise patient safety.

Treatment and study plan

Radiation (Very low dose)

Radiation

4 Gy in 2 consecutive daily fractions subsequently with orelabrutinib

Other names: targeted therapy

Radiation (Standard)

Radiation

24 Gy in 12 fractions

Primary outcomes

  1. Complete response rate

    Time frame: 6 months

    The disappearance of all target lesions and the normalization of tumor marker levels, with no new lesions identified.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    Time frame: 6 months

    The proportion of patients who achieve either a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as their best overall response, according to predefined response criteria (e.g., Lugano criteria), relative to the total number of evaluable patients.

  2. Duration of Response (DOR)

    Time frame: 6 months

    The time from the first documented objective response (CR or PR) to the first documented disease progression (PD) or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.

  3. 2-year Event-Free Survival (EFS)

    Time frame: 2 years

    The probability of remaining free from any predefined event (including disease progression, relapse, initiation of new anticancer therapy, or death from any cause) at 2 years from the start of treatment, as estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method.

  4. 2-year Overall Survival (OS)

    Time frame: 2 years

    The probability of remaining alive at 2 years from the start of treatment, regardless of disease status, as estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method.

  5. 2-year Local Control Rate

    Time frame: 2 years

    The probability of the absence of local progression or local recurrence at the irradiated site(s) at 2 years from the start of treatment, as estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method.

  6. 2-year Distant Metastasis Rate

    Time frame: 2 years

    The proportion of patients who develop new lesions outside the initially involved sites or areas of irradiation within 2 years from the start of treatment. Alternatively, it can be expressed as the cumulative incidence of distant metastasis at 2 years, accounting for competing risks.

  7. Rate of acute toxicity (any and above grade 3)

    Time frame: From enrollment to 3 months after treatment

    toxicities according to CTCAE criteria

  8. Rate of late toxicity (any and above grade 3)

    Time frame: After 3 months of enrollment

    toxicities according to CTCAE criteria
