A Phase IB, Open-Label, Multicenter, Single Arm Study Evaluating the Preliminary Efficacy, Safety, and Pharmacokinetics of Glofitamab in Combination With Rituximab Plus Ifosfamide, Carboplatin Etoposide Phosphate in Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Transplant or CAR-T Therapy Eligible Diffuse B-Cell Lymphoma

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the preliminary efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of glofitamab (glofit) in combination with rituximab plus ifosfamide, carboplatin, and etoposide (R-ICE) in participants with relapsed or refractory (R/R) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), who have failed one prior line of therapy incorporating an anti-cluster of differentiation (CD) 20 antibody (i.e., rituximab) and an anthracycline, and who are transplant or chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy eligible, defined as being medically eligible for intensive platinum-based salvage therapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) or for CAR-T therapy.

Participants who received corticosteroid treatment with ≤ 30 mg/day of prednisone or equivalent must be documented to be on a stable dose of at least 4 weeks' duration prior to Cycle 1 Day 1. Participants may have received a brief (≤ 7 days) course of systemic steroids (≤ 100 mg prednisone equivalent per day) prior to initiation of study therapy for control of lymphoma-related symptoms
