Phase Ib Study to Assess Safety and Preliminary Efficacy of Tafasitamab or Tafasitamab Plus Lenalidomide in Addition to R-CHOP in Patients With Newly Diagnosed DLBCL

This is an open-label, randomized, multicentre study to evaluate safety and preliminary efficacy of the human anti-CD19 antibody Tafasitamab in addition to R-CHOP (Rituximab, Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, Prednisone) or Tafasitamab and Lenalidomide in addition to R-CHOP in adult patients with newly diagnosed, previously untreated Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL).

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Major Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age >18 years
  • Histologically confirmed diagnosis of DLBCL, not otherwise specified (NOS)
  • Tumor tissue for retrospective central pathology review and correlative studies must be provided.
  • At least one bidimensionally measurable, PET positive disease site (greatest transverse diameter of ≥1.5 cm, greatest perpendicular diameter of ≥1.0 cm)
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 2
  • International Prognostic Index (IPI) status of 2 to 5
  • Appropriate candidate for R-CHOP
  • Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of ≥50% assessed by echocardiography or cardiac multi-gated acquisition (MUGA) scan
  • Adequate hematologic, liver and renal function
  • Females of childbearing potential (FCBP) must:
  • not be pregnant
  • refrain from breast feeding and donating oocyte
  • agree to ongoing pregnancy testing
  • commit to continued abstinence from heterosexual intercourse, or agree to use and be able to comply with the use of double-barrier contraception
  • Males must:
  • use an effective barrier method of contraception if sexually active with FCBP
  • refrain from donating sperm
  • In the opinion of investigator, the patient must be able and willing to receive adequate prophylaxis and/or therapy for thromboembolic events

Major Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any other histological type of lymphoma according to World Health Organization (WHO) 2016 classification of lymphoid neoplasms, known double- or triple-hit lymphoma
  • Transformed non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and/or evidence of composite lymphoma
  • History of radiation therapy to ≥25% of the bone marrow or history of anthracycline therapy
  • History of prior non-hematologic malignancy except for the following:
  • Malignancy treated with curative intent and with no evidence of active disease present for more than 2 years before screening
  • Adequately treated lentigo maligna melanoma without current evidence of disease or adequately controlled non-melanomatous skin cancer
  • Adequately treated carcinoma in situ without current evidence of disease
  • History of myocardial infarction ≤6 months, or congestive heart failure requiring use of ongoing maintenance therapy for life-threatening arrhythmias
  • Patients with:
  • positive test results for active hepatitis B and C
  • known seropositive for or history of active viral infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
  • known active bacterial, viral, fungal, mycobacterial, or other infection at screening
  • known central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma involvement
  • history or evidence of clinically significant cardiovascular, CNS and/or other systemic disease that would in the investigator opinion preclude participation in the study

Treatment and study plan

Tafasitamab

Drug

Six 21-day cycles of tafasitamab (12 mg/kg intravenously, on Day 1, 8 and 15) in addition to R-CHOP

Tafasitamab plus lenalidomide

Drug

Six 21-day cycles of tafasitamab (12 mg/kg intravenously, on Day 1, 8 and 15) plus lenalidomide (starting dose 25 mg orally, on Day 1-10) in addition to R-CHOP

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence and Severity of Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    Time frame: 6 months approximately

Secondary outcomes

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR) at the End of Treatment (EOT)

    Time frame: 6 months approximately

    The ORR at EOT was defined as the proportion of patients with Complete Response (CR) or Partial response (PR) based on the response achieved at the EOT Visit/early treatment discontinuation visit.

  2. Metabolic, PET-negative Complete Response (CR) Rate at the End of Treatment

    Time frame: 6 months approximately

  3. Incidence and Severity of Adverse Events (AEs) in the Follow-up (FU) Period

    Time frame: 18 months for non-treatment emergent adverse events, 6 months for treatment emergent adverse events

  4. Best Objective Response Rate (ORR) Until the End of Study (EOS)

    Time frame: 24 months approximately

    The best ORR was defined as the proportion of patients with Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) as the best response until the EOS.

  5. Metabolic, PET-negative Complete Response (CR) Rate Until the End of Study

    Time frame: 24 months approximately

  6. Progression-free Survival (PFS) at 12 and 24 Months

    Time frame: 24 months approximately

    As many patients had their data censored, due to completing the study without disease progression or death due to any cause, the probability of PFS (%) was used.

  7. Event-free Survival (EFS) at 12 and 24 Months

    Time frame: 24 months approximately

    As many patients had their data censored, due to completing the study without disease progression, death due to any cause, or the start of a new anti-lymphoma treatment, the probability of EFS (%) was used.

  8. Time to Next Anti-lymphoma Treatment (TTNT)

    Time frame: 24 months approximately

    As many patients had their data censored, due to completing the study without needing to receive another anti-lymphoma treatment, the Probability of TTNT (%) was used. Time to next anti-lymphoma treatment survival % estimate was the estimated probability that a patient remained TTNT-free up to the specified point in time.

  9. Overall Survival at 12 and 24 Months

    Time frame: 24 months approximately

    As many patients had their data censored, due to completing the study without death from any cause, the probability of OS (%) was used.

  10. Anti-tafasitamab Antibodies Formation

    Time frame: 12 months approximately
