Effects of two medicines on relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma

A PHASE 1b/2, OPEN-LABEL STUDY OF PF-07901801 IN COMBINATION WITH GLOFITAMAB AFTER A FIXED, SINGLE DOSE OF OBINUTUZUMAB IN PARTICIPANTS WITH RELAPSED/REFRACTORY DIFFUSE LARGE B CELL LYMPHOMA NOT ELIGIBLE FOR STEM CELL TRANSPLANTATION

PHASE1; PHASE2 · Pfizer · NCT05896163

This study is testing if a combination of two new medicines can help adults with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma feel better after they’ve already tried other treatments.

What this trial studies

This study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of two investigational drugs, maplirpacept and glofitamab, given together after a single dose of obinutuzumab in adults with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Participants must have a confirmed diagnosis of DLBCL and have received at least two prior treatments. The study is divided into two phases: Phase 1b focuses on determining the appropriate dosage, while Phase 2 assesses the safety and efficacy of the treatment combination. The goal is to find a recommended dose for future studies.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults with relapsed or refractory DLBCL who have received at least two prior treatments and are not candidates for stem cell transplant or CAR-T therapy.

Not a fit: Patients who have previously received anti-CD47 treatments or have high-grade B-cell lymphoma may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new option for patients with difficult-to-treat DLBCL.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promise with similar approaches, but this specific combination is being evaluated for the first time.
