About
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical activity and tolerability of a combination of obinutuzumab plus venetoclax in patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
Full description
The study will have a 6 patient run-in phase to determine safety and to adjust treatment. Once the sixth patient has completed 21 days of treatment, withdrawn due to toxicity, or died, a formal review will be undertaken by the sponsor (AGMT). Enrolment will be halted until review is completed. If one (1) treatment related death is reported or three (3) or more patients experience CTC grade 4 events other than neutropenia, anemia, or thrombocytopenia, the study will be stopped for further recruitment. If the stopping criteria are not met, enrollment will be continued. A futility analysis will be conducted when the first 10 patients have been evaluated for response: If at least 2 patients had an objective response (CR or PR), the study will be continued.
The combination treatment will be repeated for up to 3 cycles. The first response assessment (including PET-CT) will be performed after the first cycle of obinutuzumab-venetoclax and patients with at least stable disease (SD) or better will be given another 2 cycles of therapy and then have assessment after a total of 3 cycles. Patients with complete or partial remission (CR, PR) after 3 cycles of therapy will either go on to transplant or receive 9 further cycles of the combination therapy (if transplant ineligible). Patients with progressive disease at any time-point or stable disease after 3 cycles will be taken off study.

Inclusion criteria
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL)
Adequate organ function,
At least one bi-dimensionally measurable lesion on CT scan defined as > 1.5 cm in its longest dimension.
Confirmed availability of archival or freshly biopsied tumor tissue meeting protocol-defined-specifications prior to study enrolment.
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0, 1, or 2.
Adequate hematologic function (unless caused by underlying disease, as established by extensive bone marrow involvement or as a result of hypersplenism secondary to the involvement of the spleen by lymphoma per the investigator)
Exclusion criteria
Patient has received any other investigational treatment within 28 days before study entry.
Known hypersensitivity to recombinant proteins, murine proteins, or to any excipient contained in the drug formulation of obinutuzumab or venetoclax.
DLBCL transformed from other malignancies or CD20 negative DLBCL.
Radiation, chemotherapy, or immunotherapy or any other anticancer therapy ≤ 4 weeks prior to Cycle 1 Day 1.
Ongoing corticosteroid use > 30 mg/day of prednisone or equivalent. Patients who received corticosteroid treatment with ≤ 30 mg/day of prednisone or equivalent must be documented to be on a stable dose of at least 4 weeks duration prior to randomization (Cycle 1 Day 1). Patients may have received a brief (< 7 days) course of systemic steroids (≤ 100 mg prednisone equivalent) prior to initiation of study therapy for control of lymphoma-related symptoms.
ECOG performance status ≥ 3.
Female patients who are pregnant or breast-feeding.
Acute or uncontrolled chronic infections.
Known diagnosis of HIV
Known cerebral or meningeal disease (HL or any other etiology), including signs or symptoms of PML.
Symptomatic neurologic disease compromising normal activities of daily living or requiring medications.
Any sensory or motor peripheral neuropathy greater than or equal to Grade 2.
Known history of any of the following cardiovascular conditions:
Diagnosed or treated for another malignancy within 3 years before the first dose or previously diagnosed with another malignancy and have evidence of residual disease.
Patients with transformed lymphoma.
Primary CNS lymphoma.
Vaccination with live vaccines within 28 days prior to treatment.
History of other malignancy that could affect compliance with the protocol or interpretation of results (Patients with a history of curatively treated basal or squamous cell carcinoma or Stage 1 melanoma of the skin or in situ carcinoma of the cervix are eligible).
Patients with a malignancy that has been treated with surgery alone with curative intent will also be excluded, unless the malignancy has been in documented remission without treatment for ≥ 3 years prior to enrollment.
Evidence of significant, uncontrolled concomitant diseases that could affect compliance with the protocol or interpretation of results or that could increase risk to the patient.
Significant pulmonary disease (including obstructive pulmonary disease and history of bronchospasm).
Known active bacterial, viral, fungal, mycobacterial, parasitic, or other infection (excluding fungal infections of nail beds) at study enrollment, or any major episode of infection requiring treatment with IV antibiotics or hospitalization (relating to the completion of the course of antibiotics) within 4 weeks prior to Cycle 1 Day 1.
Requires the use of warfarin (because of potential drug-drug interactions that may potentially increase the exposure of warfarin).
Received the following agents within 7 days prior to the first dose of venetoclax:
Consumed grapefruit, grapefruit products, Seville oranges (including marmalade containing Seville oranges) or star fruit within 3 days prior to the first dose of venetoclax.
Clinically significant history of liver disease, including viral or other hepatitis, current alcohol abuse, or cirrhosis.
Presence of positive test results for Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C and CMV.
Recent major surgery (within 6 weeks prior to the start of Cycle 1 Day 1), other than for diagnosis.
