Brief Summary:

The trial is a global, multi-center safety and efficacy trial of epcoritamab, an antibody also known as EPKINLY™ and GEN3013 (DuoBody®-CD3xCD20). The trial consists of 3 parts:

  • a dose-escalation part (Phase 1, first-in-human (FIH))
  • an expansion part (Phase 2a)
  • a dose-optimization part (Phase 2a)

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) High-grade B-cell Lymphoma (HGBCL) Primary Mediastinal Large B-cell Lymphoma (PMBCL) Follicular Lymphoma (FL) Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (SLL) Marginal Zone Lymphoma (MZL) Biological: Epcoritamab Phase 1 Phase 2

Expanded Access : An investigational treatment associated with this study has been approved for sale to the public.   More info ...

Detailed Description:

The purpose of the dose-escalation part of the trial is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), as well as to establish the safety profile of epcoritamab in patients with relapsed, progressive or refractory B-cell lymphoma.

In the expansion part, additional patients will be treated with epcoritamab, at the RP2D and the purpose is to further explore and determine the safety and efficacy of epcoritamab.

The dose-optimization part will evaluate alternative priming and intermediate dose regimens of epcoritamab. All patients will receive epcoritamab at the RP2D.
