Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Arm A
Participants will receive treatment with zilovertamab vedotin 2.5 mg/kg via intravenous (IV) infusion on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle (every 3 weeks (Q3W)) until documented disease progression or any other discontinuation criterion is met.
IV infusion of 2.5 mg/kg

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Objective Response Rate (ORR) per Lugano Response Criteria
Time Frame: Up to approximately 50 months
ORR is percentage of participants with complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). ORR by cohort, relapsed or refractory (rr) DLBCL as assessed by BICR according to Lugano Response Criteria 2014 in participants treated with zilovertamab vedotin Q3W. CR is the complete radiologic response. PR is a partial response, >=50% decrease in sum of the product of the perpendicular diameters for multiple lesions for up to 6 target measurable nodes and extranodal sites.
Up to approximately 50 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Duration of Response (DOR) per Lugano Response Criteria
Time Frame: Up to approximately 50 months
Duration of Response (DOR) is time from first documented evidence of CR or PR until disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.
Up to approximately 50 months
Number of Participants Who Experience an Adverse Event (AE)
Time Frame: Up to approximately 50 months
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. The number of participants who experience at least one AE will be presented.
Up to approximately 50 months
Number of Participants Who Discontinue Study Treatment Due to an AE
Time Frame: Up to approximately 50 months
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. The number of participants who discontinue study treatment due to an AE will be presented.
Up to approximately 50 months
