Phase 1/2a Trial of BI-1206, a Monoclonal Antibody to CD32b (FcyRIIB), in Combination With Rituximab With or Without Acalabrutinib in Subjects With Indolent B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma That Has Relapsed or is Refractory to Rituximab

Phase 1/2a Clinical Trial of BI-1206, a Monoclonal Antibody to CD32b (FcyRIIB), in Combination with Rituximab with or without Acalabrutinib in Subjects with Indolent B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma That has Relapsed or is Refractory to Rituximab

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This is a Phase 1/2a, multicenter, dose escalation, consecutive-cohort, open-label trial of BI-1206 in combination with rituximab with or without acalabrutinib in subjects with indolent relapsed or refractory B-cell NHL, sub-types FL (except FL grade 3B), MZL, and MCL.

Phase 2a, consists of signal seeking cohorts followed by a randomized, parallel, two-arm dose optimization.

The trial consists of 2 main parts:

Phase 1

- Dose Escalation, with two different Arms assessing IV or SC dosing of BI-1206 in combination with rituximab, with dose escalation cohorts and selection of the IV and SC doses of BI-1206 for Phase 2a

Phase 2a

  • Dose Expansion, with one expansion cohort evaluating the selected IV dose of BI-1206 in combination with rituximab
  • Signal Seeking, assessing IV and SC dosing of BI-1206 in combination with rituximab and acalabrutinib. The Signal Seeking will consist of a Safety Run-in and an Expansion
  • Dose Optimization to select the recommended dose of BI-1206 in combination with rituximab and acalabrutinib

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame

Up to 1 year
Assessment of Patient Reported Outcomes using the NCI PRO-CTCAE questionnaire
Time Frame: Up to 1 year

The NCI PRO-CTCAE will be used to evaluate symptomatic toxicities reported by patients. The questionnaire characterizes the frequency, severity, interference, and presence/absence of symptomatic toxicities, all toxicities that can be meaningfully reported from the patient perspective.

Responses are scored from 0 to 4 (or 0/1 for absent/present). Scores for each attribute (frequency, severity and/or interference) will be presented descriptively (e.g. summary statistics or graphical presentations).
