Clinical Trial Summary

This is a national clinical trial, multicentric (28 centers), non-randomized phase 2 study.

Primary endpoint Percentage of participants with a complete response as assessed by the investigator using the Cheson IWG 2014 Lugano Classification (i.e. Deauville scale 1-3) after 6 cycles of R/G-CHOP + glofitamab or at permanent treatment discontinuation.

End of treatment is defined as after 6 cycles of R/G-CHOP + glofitamab. Permanent treatment discontinuation is defined as the discontinuation of all treatments (R/G-CHOP, glofitamab).

Follow up assessments The follow-up will be performed every 3 months for 12 months (FU3, FU6, FU9, FU12) after the end of last treatment by glofitamab (C8D8) or if patient stopped treatment prematurely without initiate a new treatment.

End of treatment (EOT):

A visit will be performed within 30 days after the last administration of study treatment for patient stop treatment prematurely and Withdrawn of the study A discontinuation/withdrawal form will be sent to the Filo secretary and head of project.

For patient continue follow up visits no EOT is required.

End of study (EOS):

The end of study becomes effective after the end of last study visit of last patient enrolled and performed the FU12 visit.

The end of study visit corresponds to the last follow-up visit (FU12). For patient withdraw during follow up period, no end of study visit is required.

Observational study:

For all patient without withdrawn at FU12 visit (see paragraph 9.2 definition of withdrawal):

After this last study visit and if patient consents, the Survival date will be collected every year in the eCRF (Survival date and/or event date form) until death, for analyse the survival:

Date of last news. Patient status: alive/death/lost of sight Patient response. Initiation of new treatment.

Investigational product:

Obinutuzumab (Gazyvaro®) Obinutuzumab is a humanized glycoengineered type II anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody that recognizes the CD20 antigen present on normal and malignant B cells and is being developed for the treatment of hematological malignancies including NHL and CLL.

Glofitamab:

Glofitamab is a "2:1" T-cell bispecific humanized monoclonal antibody that binds to human CD20 on B cells through two fragment antigen-binding domains, and to the human CD3 epsilon subunit (CD3e) of the T-receptor (TCR) complex on T cells through a single Fab domain.

Safety :

Patient safety will be assessed based on clinical and laboratory evaluations, physical examinations, vital signs, and monitoring of adverse events (AEs). ;
