A Study to Evaluate the Impact of Mosunetuzumab Consolidation for Older Patients With Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) Who Have Detectable Amounts of ctDNA (Circulating Tumor DNA) at the End of Treatment With Pola-R-mini-CHP

(GOLD)

What this study is about

Older patients with diffuse large B- cell lymphoma (DLBCL) do not have the same rates of disease control as younger patients and are at risk for toxicity. Identifying which patients might benefit from more therapy at the end of first-line treatment is important.

View original scientific description

Older patients with diffuse large B- cell lymphoma (DLBCL) do not have the same rates of disease control as younger patients and are at risk for toxicity. Identifying which patients might benefit from more therapy at the end of first-line treatment is important. The ability to measure small amounts of persistent lymphoma (circulating tumor DNA or ctDNA) might allow the investigators to risk stratify patients. If older patients have detectable ctDNA in the blood at the end of six cycles of polatuzumab vedotin, rituximab and dose-attentuated CHP chemotherapy, patients will receive a bispecific antibody called mosunetuzumab. The investigators hypothesize this will result in "clearing" the ctDNA from the blood and result in better disease control and outcomes for patients. The study will also measure the safety of this regimen and the impact on the function of these older patients utilizing a tool called the geriatric assessment.

Who can participate

This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients aged greater than or equal to 70 years of age who are ineligible for full-intensity chemoimmunotherapy at the discretion of the treating investigator. If between the ages of 70-79, the reason for ineligibility should be documented in a clinical note. If 80 or older, the reason for dose-attenuated chemoimmunotherapy is assumed to be age.
  • ECOG performance status of 0-2.
  • Histologically-confirmed DLBCL, NOS, high grade B-cell lymphoma with MYC and BCL2 rearrangements, high grade B-cell lymphoma, NOS, and grade 3b follicular lymphoma
  • Histologic transformation (HT) will be included on the study. This must be confirmed with a biopsy. Patients with HT may have received prior treatment for indolent lymphoma including chemoimmunotherapy but must not have received an anthracycline-containing regimen in the past.
  • Composite and discordant lymphomas containing both indolent and large cell features will be included.
  • Has received no prior therapy for aggressive B-cell lymphoma or HT with the following exceptions: a course of corticosteroids given for lymphoma related symptoms or one cycle of anthracycline containing chemotherapy prior to enrollment on the clinical trial. Pre-phase treatment with polatuzumab vedotin and steroids is allowable at the treating investigator's discretion.
  • Ejection fraction of ≥ 45% on echocardiogram or MUGA
  • Patient has a platelet count of ≥75,000/µL within the screening period unless inadequate function is due to bone marrow infiltration with aggressive B-cell lymphoma in which case the platelet count should be ≥ 30,000/µL
  • Patient has an absolute neutrophil count of ≥1,500/ µL within the screening period unless inadequate function is due to bone marrow infiltration with aggressive B-cell lymphoma in which case the neutrophil count should be ≥500/ µL
  • Patient has a calculated or measured creatinine clearance of \>40 mL/minute within the screening period.
  • Total bilirubin must be less than 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) unless the elevation is known to be due to Gilbert syndrome or hepatic involvement with aggressive B-cell lymphoma in which case it can be ≤ 3.0 times the ULN. ALT or AST must be ≤ 2.5 times the ULN.
  • Patient has, with treatment in the opinion of the treating investigator, a life expectancy of at least 12 weeks.
  • Signed Informed Consent Form
  • Ability to comply with the study protocol

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients who meet any of the following exclusion criteria are not to be enrolled to this study:
  • History of, or clinically apparent central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma
  • Primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma
  • Patient is receiving peritoneal dialysis or hemodialysis
  • Patient has \> Grade 1 peripheral neuropathy.
  • EF \<45% or significant or extensive history of cardiovascular disease such as New York Heart Association Class III or IV cardiac disease or Objective Assessment Class C or D, myocardial infarction within the last 6 months prior to the start of Cycle 1, unstable arrhythmias, or unstable angina
  • Patient has received other investigational drugs within 28 days before enrollment.
  • Prior exposure to anthracycline
  • Patient has concomitant active malignancy that the treating physician or PI feels may interfere with the ability to measure the primary or secondary outcomes. Patients with stage 1 cancers are eligible after definitive treatment. Patients with low grade prostate cancer who are managed with observation are eligible. Patients with other malignancies that have been treated with curative intent may be included after discussion with the study PI.
  • Participants who have a positive HIV test at screening, with the following exception: Individuals with a positive HIV test at screening are eligible provided they are stable on anti-retroviral therapy for at least 4 weeks, have a CD4 count \>/= 200/uL, have an undetectable viral load, and have not had a history of opportunistic infection attributable to AIDS within the last 12 months.
  • Patient has active hepatitis B with a positive surface antigen or viral load. Carriers of hepatitis B virus should be closely monitored for clinical and laboratory signs of active HBV infection and for signs of hepatitis throughout study participation according to national and local guidelines. Those at high risk of reactivation should be placed on appropriate antiviral therapy as per national guidelines.
  • History of solid organ transplantation, or post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder.
  • Patient has history of allogeneic stem cell transplantation.
  • Serious medical or psychiatric illness likely to interfere with participation in this clinical study including clinically significant CNS disease, active infections, or autoimmune disease that in the opinion of the treating investigator impacts their ability to safely participate in the clinical trial.
  • Any clinically significant abnormality in screening blood chemistry, hematology, or urinalysis results that, in the judgment of the investigator, would impede adequate evaluation of adverse events and/or response to treatment, or that requires aggressive intervention.
  • Treatment with systemic immunosuppressive medications, including, but not limited to, prednisone (\>20 mg), azathioprine, methotrexate, thalidomide, and antitumor necrosis factor agents within 2 weeks prior to Day 1 of the first cycle of mosunetuzumab. The use of inhaled corticosteroids is permitted, as is the use of mineralocorticoids for management of orthostatic hypotension and a dose of dexamethasone 20mg or less for nausea or B symptoms.

Frequently asked questions

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.

Is it safe to participate?

Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.

Will I be compensated?

Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.

Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?

When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.

Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?

Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.

How long does a clinical trial last?

Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
