Clinical summary
Summary
The most common types of mature B-cell lymphomas (MBLs) in children are Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Initial treatment cures 90-95% of children with these malignancies, leaving a very small population of relapsed/refractory disease with a poor prognosis.
Approximately 15 paediatric participants with a diagnosis of relapsed/refractory aggressive mature B-cell neoplasms and young adult participants, aged 18-25, with a diagnosis of Burkitt's or Burkitt-like lymphoma or leukaemia will be enrolled at 50 sites globally.
Eligible participants will receive subcutanous (SC) injections of epcoritamab immunotherapy. Participants will receive SC epcoritamab in 28-day cycles. Participants will be followed for a minimum of 3 years after each enrollment.
There may be a higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at an approved institution (hospital or clinic). The effect of the treatment will be frequently checked by medical assessments, blood tests, questionnaires and side effects.
Conditions
This trial is treating people with aggressive mature B-cell neoplasms
Eligibility
Exclusion
- Known central nervous system (CNS) involvement by lymphoma at screening as confirmed by screening magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)/computed tomography (CT)/positron emission tomography (PET) brain scans (participants with evidence of CNS disease only in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) will be eligible).
- Other malignancy requiring therapy.
- Currently receiving anti-cancer therapy, including chemotherapy (excluding intrathecal therapy), radiotherapy, small molecules, monoclonal antibodies, cell therapy, or other investigational agents.
Inclusion
- You have had treatment, but your cancer has come back (relapsed or recurrent).
- You have had treatment but your cancer has gotten worse or has not responded to the treatment you have been given.
Exclusion
- You have been diagnosed with a prior or secondary type of cancer.
- You have had certain treatments, surgical procedures or drugs.
Clinical trials have complex eligibility criteria, and other criteria may apply for this trial. Ask your doctor about whether this trial could be right for you.
