Description
Primary Objective
To assess the anti-tumor activity of single agent odronextamab as measured by the objective response rate (ORR) according to the Lugano Classification of response in malignant lymphoma (Cheson, 2014) and as assessed by independent central review in each of the following B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL) subgroups:
• In patients with follicular lymphoma (FL) grade 1-3a that has relapsed after or is refractory to at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy, including an anti-CD20 antibody and an alkylating agent.
• In patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that has relapsed after or is refractory to at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy, including an anti-CD20 antibody and an alkylating agent.
• In patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) that has relapsed after or is refractory to a BTK inhibitor. This cohort will also include patients who have relapsed or have disease refractory to prior systemic therapy, or patients who have demonstrated intolerance to BTK inhibitor therapy, and who have progressed after other systemic therapy.
• In patients with marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) that has relapsed after or is refractory to at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy.
• In patients with other B-NHL subtypes that have relapsed after or are refractory to at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy.

Inclusion Criteria
Age 18 years or greater
For the FL grade 1-3a cohort only: Central histopathologic confirmation of the FL grade 1 to 3a diagnosis must be obtained before study enrollment. Patients with FL grade 3b are ineligible for this cohort but may be included in the “Other B-NHL” cohort. Follicular lymphoma subtyping is based on the World Health Organization (WHO) classification (Swerdlow, 2017).
Disease-specific cohorts:
Patients should, in the judgment of the investigator, require systemic therapy for lymphoma at the time of study enrollment and should be deemed not appropriate for any other approved therapy with established benefit for that indication. Refractory is defined as no response (SD/PD) or relapse within ≤6 months of last treatment.
• FL grade 1-3a cohort: patients with FL grade 1-3a that has relapsed after or is refractory to at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy, including an anti-CD20 antibody and an alkylating agent; patients must have failed combination lenalidomide and rituximab treatment where approved or deemed not appropriate to receive this treatment according to the investigator.
• DLBCL cohort: patients with DLBCL that has relapsed after or is refractory to at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy, including an anti-CD20 antibody and an alkylating agent. Patients with de novo DLBCL or DLBCL that is transformed from a lower grade neoplasm (eg, FL or CLL) may be enrolled. Patients with DLBCL transformation from prior CLL can only be enrolled in the absence of a leukemic CLL component. For patients with transformed DLBCL, prior systemic therapies administered for the lower grade neoplasm will not be considered among the prior lines of therapy for the purpose of determining eligibility. The following subtypes based on the WHO classification (Beham-Schmid, 2017) are eligible:
− DLBCL not otherwise specified (NOS)
− Germinal center B-cell type
− Activated B-cell type
• MCL after BTK inhibitor therapy cohort: Patients with MCL who have relapsed or refractory disease to at least one prior line of systemic therapy and had prior treatment with a BTK inhibitor.
• MZL cohort: patients with MZL that has relapsed or is refractory to at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy. As of Global Amendment 6, enrollment has resumed for patients with MZL. Please refer to Section 10.4.4.2 for more information. The following subtypes based on the WHO classification (Beham-Schmid, 2017) are eligible:
− Extranodal MZL of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma)
− Nodal marginal zone lymphoma
− Splenic marginal zone lymphoma
• Other B-NHL cohort: patients with B-NHL other than FL grade 1-3a, DLBCL, MCL, or MZL) that has relapsed or is refractory to at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy. The following subtypes based on the WHO classification (Beham-Schmid, 2017) are eligible:
− Primary mediastinal (thymic) large B-cell lymphoma
− T-cell/histiocyte-rich large B-cell lymphoma
− Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)+ DLBCL, NOS
− High-grade B-cell lymphoma, with MYC and BCL2 and/or BCL6 rearrangements
− High-grade B-cell lymphoma, NOS
− B-cell lymphoma, unclassifiable, with features intermediate between DLBCL and classical Hodgkin lymphoma
− Follicular lymphoma, grade 3b
Note:
▪ Patients with a current diagnosis of mixed histology B-NHL with an aggressive component (such as, concurrent FL and DLBCL) are included in Other B-NHL cohort.
▪ Patients with a current diagnosis of transformed DLBCL, that have relapsed or are refractory to at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy administered for lower grade neoplasm which are considered as standard regimens in aggressive lymphoma, will be included in the Other B-NHL cohort.
▪ Patients with Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM, lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma), small lymphocytic leukemia (SLL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), Burkitt lymphoma and Burkitt-like lymphoma with 11q aberration are excluded.

Member of the clinical site study team or his/her immediate family, unless prior approval granted by the sponsor.
Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) with a positive serum β-hCG pregnancy test are ineligible for this study.
Patients who are committed to an institution by virtue of an order issued either by the judicial or the administrative authorities.
Pregnant or breastfeeding women.
Women of childbearing potential* or men who are unwilling to practice highly effective contraception prior to the initial dose/start of the first treatment, during the study, and for at least 6 months after the last dose. Sperm donation is prohibited during the study and for 6 months after the last dose of study drug. Highly effective contraceptive measures include:
a. stable use of combined (estrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception (oral, intravaginal, transdermal) or progestogen-only hormonal contraception (oral, injectable, implantable) associated with inhibition of ovulation initiated 2 or more menstrual cycles prior to screening
b. intrauterine device (IUD); intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS)
c. bilateral tubal ligation
d. vasectomized partner (provided that the male vasectomized partner is the sole sexual partner of the study participant and that the partner has obtained medical assessment of surgical success for the procedure).
e. and/or sexual abstinence†, ‡.
Women of childbearing potential are defined as women who are fertile following menarche until becoming post-menopausal, unless permanently sterile. Permanent sterilization methods include hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, and bilateral oophorectomy. A post-menopausal state is defined as no menses for 12 months without an alternative medical cause. A high follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) level in the postmenopausal range may be used to confirm a post-menopausal state in women not using hormonal contraception or hormonal replacement therapy. However, in the absence of 12 months of amenorrhea, a single FSH measurement is insufficient to determine the occurrence of a post-menopausal state. The above definitions are according to Clinical Trial Facilitation Group (CTFG) guidance. Pregnancy testing and contraception are not required for women with documented hysterectomy.
† Sexual abstinence is considered a highly effective method only if defined as refraining from heterosexual intercourse during the entire period of risk associated with the study drugs. The reliability of sexual abstinence needs to be evaluated in relation to the duration of the clinical trial and the preferred and usual lifestyle of the patient.
‡ Periodic abstinence (calendar, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods), withdrawal (coitus interruptus), spermicides only, and lactational amenorrhea method (LAM) are not acceptable methods of contraception. Female condom and male condom should not be used together.
- Prior treatment with an anti-CD20 x anti-CD3 bispecific therapy.
