EU CTIS ID: 2023-508301-25-00

What this study is testing

The primary objective of the study is to assess the anti-lymphoma activity of glofitamab, a bispecific CD3xCD20 monoclonal antibody in patients with relapse/refractory (R/R) DLBCL (cohort 1) disease after anti-CD19 CAR T-cells therapy.

  • LVEF < 40% as determined by echocardiography or multiple uptake gated acquisition (MUGA) scan or significant cardiovascular disease such as New York Heart Association Class III or IV or Objective Class C or D cardiac disease (see appendix 16), myocardial infarction within the last 6 months, unstable arrhythmias, or unstable angina
  • Any serious active disease or co-morbid medical condition
  • Clinically significant history of liver disease or cirrhosis
  • Prior history of malignancies other than lymphoma unless the subject has been free of the disease for ≥ 3 years. Exceptions will be allowed for patients with non-melanoma skin tumors (basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin) or any surgically removed stage 0 (in situ) carcinoma
