A Study of Obinutuzumab, Polatuzumab Vedotin, and Lenalidomide in Relapsed or Refractory Follicular Lymphoma (FL) and Rituximab in Combination With Polatuzumab Vedotin and Lenalidomide in Relapsed or Refractory Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL)

This study will evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of induction treatment with obinutuzumab, polatuzumab vedotin, and lenalidomide in participants with relapsed or refractory (R/R) follicular lymphoma (FL) and rituximab in combination with polatuzumab vedotin and lenalidomide in participants with R/R diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), followed by post-induction treatment with obinutuzumab in combination with lenalidomide in participants with FL who achieve a complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) at end of induction (EOI) and post-induction treatment with rituximab plus lenalidomide in participants with DLBCL who achieve a CR or PR at EOI.

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs)

    Time frame: Day 1 of Cycle 1 to Day 1 of Cycle 2 (1 cycle = 28 days) in dose-escalation phase

    A DLT was defined as any one of the following toxicities occurring during the first cycle of treatment and assessed by the investigator as related to study treatment: Any adverse event of any grade that lead to a delay of > 14 days in the start of the next treatment cycle, Grade 3 or 4 non-hematologic adverse events with few exceptions; increase in hepatic transaminase > 3 x baseline and an increase in direct bilirubin > 2 x upper limits of normal (ULN), without any findings of cholestasis or jaundice, or signs of hepatic dysfunction, and in the absence of other contributory factors; hematologic adverse events that met a few protocol specified criteria. DLTs were assessed according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, Version 4.0 (NCI CTCAE v4.0). Percentages have been rounded off to the first decimal point.

  2. Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)

    Time frame: From study start up to end of study (Up to a maximum of 69 months)

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered related to the pharmaceutical product. Preexisting conditions which worsen during a study are also considered as adverse events. Percentages have been rounded off to the first decimal point.

  3. Percentage of Participants With Complete Response (CR) at End of Induction (EOI), Determined by an Independent Review Committee (IRC) on the Basis of Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Computed Tomography (CT) Scans

    Time frame: 6 to 8 weeks after Day 1 of Cycle 6 (up to approximately 28 weeks)

    CR at EOI was assessed by IRC according to Modified Lugano Response Criteria (MLRC). Per MLRC, CR based on PET-CT was defined as complete metabolic response (MR) in lymph nodes and extralymphatic sites (ELS) with a score of 1, 2, or 3 with or without residual mass, on 5-point scale (5PS) where 1=no uptake above background; 2=uptake ≤ mediastinum; 3=uptake > mediastinum but ≤ liver; 4=uptake moderately > liver; 5=uptake markedly higher than liver and/or new lesions no evidence of fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-avid disease in bone marrow. Bone marrow is normal by morphology; if indeterminate, immunohistochemistry (IHC) negative. Analysis was done 6-8 weeks after Cycle 6, Day 1 (cycle=28 days). Percentages have been rounded off to the first decimal point.
