MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Part A: Phase I (Arms 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5): To define MTD of Betalutin Phase IIa: To explore tumour response rates in patients receiving Betalutin. Part B (FL phase IIb “PARADIGME”): To evaluate the efficacy of the “40/15” dose regimen (40 mg lilotomab / 15 MBq/kg Betalutin) compared with “100/20” dose regimen (100 mg/m2 lilotomab/ 20 MBq/kg Betalutin) based on an Independent Review Committee (IRC) assessment of tumour response rates in adult patients with relapsed rituximab/anti-CD20-refractory follicular lymphoma. ;Secondary Objective: Part A: Phase I (Arms 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5): To establish recommended dose of Betalutin for phase IIa, investigate safety, toxicity, biodistribution, pharmacokinetics and to explore the efficacy. Phase IIa: to confirm the recommended dose of Betalutin from Part A, phase I, investigate safety and toxicity, estimate progression free survival and overall survival, quality of life. Part B (FL phase IIb “PARADIGME”): To compare the treatment groups in terms of safety (incidence and severity of adverse events (AE)) and efficacy (progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and duration of response as well as exploratory pharmacokinetics and quality of life measurements (QoL)). ;Primary end point(s): Part A: • Incidence and severity of adverse events and serious adverse events graded according to the National Cancer Institute – Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE version 4 or later as applicable). • Changes from baseline in laboratory variables: haematology and serum biochemistry. • Changes from baseline in body temperature and vital signs (systolic/diastolic blood pressure and heart rate) during the treatment period. • Changes from baseline in physical examination during the treatment period. Part B: • Overall response rate (ORR) defined as the proportion of patients who achieve a confirmed CR or PR as assessed by an independent reviewer based on Cheson criteria (version 2014).;Timepoint(s) of e

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Part A: • Incidence of potential late toxicity, such as new primary cancers and bone marrow changes (acute myelogenous leukaemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, and aplastic anaemia). • Overall survival. • Estimation of whole-body retention of radioactivity at each imaging time post-injection. • Estimation of the individual organ uptake/retention of radioactivity at each imaging time-point after injection. • Estimate retention of administered radioactivity in blood. • Calculation of estimated absorbed radiation dose to target organs. • Tumour response rate. • Tumour response duration. • Progression-free survival • Performance status defined as improvement or worsening, respectively, by 1-point or more on the ECOG scale from the baseline value • Quality of life (QoL) assessed using Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy–Lymphoma (FACT-Lym) questionnaire Part B: • Incidence and severity of AEs • DoR – defined as the interval from the first documentation of CR or PR to the first documentation of disease progression or death from any cause, whichever comes first. • PFS – defined as the interval from the start of Betalutin treatment to the first documentation of disease progression. • OS - defined as the interval from the start of Betalutin treatment to death from any cause, including disease progression. • Change from baseline in the sum of the product of the greatest perpendicular diameters (SPD) of target lymph nodes as documented radiographically.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: From baseline and up to 5 years post injection
