Testing a new drug called odronextamab for treating follicular lymphoma

A Phase 3, Open-label, Randomized Study to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of Odronextamab (REGN1979), an Anti-CD20 X Anti-CD3 Bispecific Antibody Versus Investigator's Choice in Previously Untreated Participants With Follicular Lymphoma (OLYMPIA-1)

PHASE3 · Regeneron Pharmaceuticals · NCT06091254

This study is testing a new drug called odronextamab to see if it can safely and effectively treat people with follicular lymphoma who haven't received treatment before.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial investigates the safety and effectiveness of odronextamab, an experimental drug, in patients with previously untreated follicular lymphoma. The study consists of two parts: the first part assesses the safety and tolerability of odronextamab alone, while the second part compares its effectiveness to the standard treatment of rituximab combined with chemotherapy. Participants will be monitored for side effects, drug levels in the blood, and the body's immune response to the drug. The goal is to determine if odronextamab can provide a better treatment option for this type of cancer.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults diagnosed with CD20+ follicular lymphoma, stage II bulky or stage III/IV, who require treatment.

Not a fit: Patients with central nervous system lymphoma, high-grade transformations, or those who have received prior systemic anti-lymphoma therapy may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could offer a new and potentially more effective treatment option for patients with follicular lymphoma.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promise with similar approaches, but the specific use of odronextamab in this context is novel.
