Phase Ib Study to Assess Safety and Preliminary Efficacy of Tafasitamab or Tafasitamab Plus Lenalidomide in Addition to R-CHOP in Patients With Newly Diagnosed DLBCL

October 11, 2024 updated by: MorphoSys AG

A Phase Ib, Open-label, Randomized Study to Assess Safety and Preliminary Efficacy of Tafasitamab in Addition to R-CHOP or Tafasitamab Plus Lenalidomide in Addition to R-CHOP in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) - First-MIND

This is an open-label, randomized, multicentre study to evaluate safety and preliminary efficacy of the human anti-CD19 antibody Tafasitamab in addition to R-CHOP (Rituximab, Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, Prednisone) or Tafasitamab and Lenalidomide in addition to R-CHOP in adult patients with newly diagnosed, previously untreated Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL).

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Incidence and Severity of Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
Time Frame: 6 months approximately
6 months approximately

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Objective Response Rate (ORR) at the End of Treatment (EOT)
Time Frame: 6 months approximately
The ORR at EOT was defined as the proportion of patients with Complete Response (CR) or Partial response (PR) based on the response achieved at the EOT Visit/early treatment discontinuation visit.
6 months approximately
Metabolic, PET-negative Complete Response (CR) Rate at the End of Treatment
Time Frame: 6 months approximately
6 months approximately
Incidence and Severity of Adverse Events (AEs) in the Follow-up (FU) Period
Time Frame: 18 months for non-treatment emergent adverse events, 6 months for treatment emergent adverse events
18 months for non-treatment emergent adverse events, 6 months for treatment emergent adverse events
Best Objective Response Rate (ORR) Until the End of Study (EOS)
Time Frame: 24 months approximately
The best ORR was defined as the proportion of patients with Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) as the best response until the EOS.
24 months approximately
Metabolic, PET-negative Complete Response (CR) Rate Until the End of Study
Time Frame: 24 months approximately
24 months approximately
Progression-free Survival (PFS) at 12 and 24 Months
Time Frame: 24 months approximately
As many patients had their data censored, due to completing the study without disease progression or death due to any cause, the probability of PFS (%) was used.
24 months approximately
Event-free Survival (EFS) at 12 and 24 Months
Time Frame: 24 months approximately
As many patients had their data censored, due to completing the study without disease progression, death due to any cause, or the start of a new anti-lymphoma treatment, the probability of EFS (%) was used.
24 months approximately
Time to Next Anti-lymphoma Treatment (TTNT)
Time Frame: 24 months approximately
As many patients had their data censored, due to completing the study without needing to receive another anti-lymphoma treatment, the Probability of TTNT (%) was used. Time to next anti-lymphoma treatment survival % estimate was the estimated probability that a patient remained TTNT-free up to the specified point in time.
24 months approximately
Overall Survival at 12 and 24 Months
Time Frame: 24 months approximately
As many patients had their data censored, due to completing the study without death from any cause, the probability of OS (%) was used.
24 months approximately
Anti-tafasitamab Antibodies Formation
Time Frame: 12 months approximately
12 months approximately
