Summary

This early-stage study tested two experimental drugs, odronextamab and cemiplimab, in 105 patients with aggressive B-cell lymphoma that had stopped responding to other treatments. The main goal was to check safety and find the best dose. Researchers also looked at how well the drugs worked and how the body processed them.

Key Inclusion Criteria: 1. Have documented CD20+ aggressive B-cell NHL that is either not responsive to or relapsed after at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy, for whom treatment with an anti-CD20 antibody may be appropriate. In addition, prior treatments should at least contain an anti-CD20 antibody and an alkylating agent. 2. Must have at least 1 nodal lesion (≥1.5 cm), or at least one extranodal lesion with longest transverse diameter (LDi) greater than 1.0 cm, documented by diagnostic imaging (computed tomography \[CT\] or magnetic resonance imaging \[MRI\]). 3. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤1 4. Adequate bone marrow and hepatic function, as defined in the protocol 5. Willing and able to comply with clinic visits and study-related procedures 6. Provide signed informed consent Key Exclusion Criteria: 1. Primary central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma, or known or suspected CNS involvement by non-primary CNS NHL 2. History of or current relevant CNS pathology, as described in the protocol 3. Ongoing or recent (within 2 years) evidence of significant autoimmune disease that required treatment with systemic immunosuppressive treatments, which may suggest risk for immune-mediated adverse events (iAEs) 4. Prior therapies, as described in the protocol 5. Uncontrolled infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection or other uncontrolled infection 6. Cytomegalovirus infection as noted by detectable levels on peripheral blood polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay until the infection is well controlled. 7.
