Details and patient eligibility

About

Study B9991011 is a multi-center, international, randomized, open label, 2 component (Phase 1b followed by Phase 3), parallel-arm study of avelumab in combination with various agents for the treatment of Relapsed/Refractory (R/R) Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL).

Full description

The target study population of this Phase 1b/3 registrational study is patients with R/R DLBCL who have completed at least 2 (but not more than 4) lines of prior rituximab-containing multi-agent chemotherapy, and/or in whom autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) has failed, or who are not candidates for ASCT or who are not eligible for intensive chemotherapy. Patients who are ineligible for intensive second line chemotherapy must have received at least one prior rituximab-containing combination chemotherapy regimen. The study will assess the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK), immunogenicity of the 3 avelumab-based combination regimens tested, and collect patient reported outcome (PRO) data.

Inclusion and exclusion criteria

Key Inclusion Criteria:

-Any of the following as defined by the WHO, 2016 lymphoid neoplasm classifications and histologically confirmed:

  • Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), Not Otherwise Specified (NOS): Germinal center B-cell type (GCB), Activated B-cell type (ABC)
  • High-grade B-cell lymphoma (HGBCL) NOS
  • HGBCL with MYC and BCL2 and/or BCL6 rearrangements
  • T-cell histocyte-rich large B-cell lymphoma
  • EBV+ DLBCL, NOS
  • HHV8+ DLBCL, NOS

Relapsed or refractory disease following at least 2 lines (and a maximum of 4 lines) of prior rituximab containing multi-agent chemotherapy which may include an autologous stem cell transplantation unless patients are not considered suitable for intensive second-line chemotherapy or autologous stem cell transplantation. Patients who are ineligible for intensive second line chemotherapy,must have received at least one prior rituximab-containing combination chemotherapy regimen. Patients who are ineligible for intensive second line chemotherapy, must have received at least one prior rituximab-containing combination chemotherapy regimen.

  • Baseline measurable disease with at least 1 bi dimensional lesion with longest diameter (LDi) >1.5cm on CT scan which is FDG avid on PET scan.
  • A biopsy (archived or Screening/recent) will be collected at Screening.
  • At least 18years of age (or ≥20 years in Japan).
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) 0 or 1.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Active central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma.
  • Prior organ transplantation including prior allogeneic SCT.
  • Prior therapy with an anti PD 1, anti PD L1, anti PD L2, anti CD137, or anti cytotoxic T lymphocyte associated antigen 4 (CTLA 4) antibody (including ipilimumab, tremelimumab or any other antibody, or drug specifically targeting T cell co stimulatory or immune checkpoint pathways).
