Study Description

Brief Summary

B-cell Lymphoma is an aggressive and rare cancer of a type of immune cells (a white blood cell responsible for fighting infections). The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and toxicity of epcoritamab as a monotherapy and when combined with standard of care therapy [Rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) or Rituximab and lenalidomide (R2)] in adult participants in China with B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. Adverse events and change in disease activity will be assessed.

Epcoritamab is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. Study doctors put the participants in groups called treatment arms. A monotherapy of epcoritamab and two different combination of epcoritamab with standard of care therapy (R-CHOP or R2) will be explored. Each treatment arm receives a different treatment combination depending on stage of the study and eligibility. Approximately 66 adult participants with B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma will be enrolled in the study in approximately 21 sites in China.

In the monotherapy arm (Cohort 1), participants will receive subcutaneous epcoritamab in 28-day cycles. In the combination arms (Cohorts 2 and 3), participants in Cohort 2 will receive subcutaneous epcoritamab with standard of care therapy (R-CHOP) in 21-day cycles followed by 28-day cycles, participants in Cohort 3 will receive subcutaneous epcoritamab with standard of care therapy (R2) in 28-day cycles.

There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at an approved institution (hospital or clinic). The effect of the treatment will be frequently checked by medical assessments, blood tests, questionnaires and side effects.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

Cohort 1 Part 2 [(3L+) R/R DLBCL]: Best Overall Response (BOR) [Up to Approximately 5 Years]
Best overall response (BOR) is defined as the percentage of participants in Cohort 1 Part 2 third line plus (3L) R/R DLBCL who achieved best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) by Lugano 2014 criteria as assessed by independent review committee (IRC).
Cohort 1 Part 1, Cohort 2, and Cohort 3: Number of Incidence of Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLT) [Up to Approximately 5 Years]
DLT events are defined as clinically significant adverse events or abnormal laboratory values assessed as unrelated to disease progression, underlying disease, intercurrent illness, or concomitant medications.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Cohort 1 Part 2 [(3L+) R/R DLBCL]: Percentage of Participants with Complete Remission (CR) [Up to Approximately 5 Years]
CR is defined as the absence of lymphoma determined by Lugano 2014 criteria as assessed by IRC.
Cohort 1 Part 2 [(3L+) R/R DLBCL]: Number of Participants with Progression-free survival (PFS) [Up to Approximately 5 Years]
PFS is defined as the time in months from the first dose of study drug to the earliest occurrence of radiographic progression determined by Lugano 2014 criteria as assessed by IRC, or death from any cause.
Cohort 1 Part 2 [(3L+) R/R DLBCL]: Overall survival (OS) [Up to Approximately 5 Years]
OS is defined for Cohort 1 epcoritamab monotherapy participants, as the time in months from first dose of epcoritamab to death from any cause.
Cohort 1 Part 2 [(3L+) R/R DLBCL]: Duration of response (DOR) [Up to Approximately 5 Years]
DOR is defined for participants who achieved best overall response of CR or PR ('responders'), as the time in months from initial CR/PR to the earliest occurrence of radiographic progression determined by Lugano 2014 criteria as assessed by IRC, or death from any cause.
Cohort 1 Part 2 [(3L+) R/R DLBCL]: Time-to-response (TTR) [Up to Approximately 5 Years]
TTR is defined as the number of months from the date of first dose to the date of best overall response of CR or PR ('responders') determined by Lugano 2014 criteria as assessed by IRC.
