Brief summary

The purpose of the study is to compare the safety and efficacy of Tafasitamab with BEN versus RTX with BEN in adult patients with relapsed of refractory DLBCL.

Detailed description

This is a randomised, two-arm, multicentre, open-label phase II/III efficacy and safety study of Tafasitamab in combination with BEN versus RTX in combination with BEN given to adult patients who have relapsed after or are refractory to at least one but no more than three prior systemic therapies and have failed, or are not candidates for HDC and ASCT, and have thus exhausted their therapeutic options of demonstrated clinical benefit. At least one prior therapy line must have included a CD20-targeted therapy.

Change From Baseline (CFB) in EQ-5D-5L Dimension Scores at End of Treatment in the Natural Killer Cell Count-Low Subgroup

The EQ-5D-5L is a standardized instrument for use as a measure of health outcome. The EQ-5D-5L descriptive system is composed of 5 dimensions (mobility, self-case, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression). Each dimension has 5 response levels, which are coded by single-digit numbers: 1 = no problems, 2 = slight problems, 3 = moderate problems, 4 = severe problems, 5 = unable to/extreme problems. The EQ-5D-5L also includes a graded (0 \[worst overall health\] to 100 \[best overall health\]) vertical visual analog scale that provides a quantitative measure of the participant's perception of their overall health.

Change From Baseline (CFB) in EQ-5D-5L Dimension Scores at End of Treatment in the Overall Population

The EQ-5D-5L is a standardized instrument for use as a measure of health outcome. The EQ-5D-5L descriptive system is composed of 5 dimensions (mobility, self-case, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression). Each dimension has 5 response levels, which are coded by single-digit numbers: 1 = no problems, 2 = slight problems, 3 = moderate problems, 4 = severe problems, 5 = unable to/extreme problems. The EQ-5D-5L also includes a graded (0 \[worst overall health\] to 100 \[best overall health\]) vertical visual analog scale that provides a quantitative measure of the participant's perception of their overall health.

Time frame: Baseline; End of Treatment (EOT) (up to 77 months)

For each scale and single item, a linear transformation was applied to standardize the scores between 0 (worst) and 100 (best) as described in the EORTC QLQ-C30 Scoring Manual.

An adverse event was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a medicinal product, which did not necessarily have a causal relationship to this treatment. An AE could therefore have been any unfavourable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a study drug, whether or not it was considered related to that study drug. TEAEs were defined as any adverse events either reported for the first time or the worsening of pre-existing events after the first dose of study drug and within 30 days of the last administration of study drug.
