Summary

Follicular lymphoma (FL) is an indolent yet incurable lymphoma characterized by initial responses to standard therapies, invariably followed by shorter disease free intervals. Obinutuzumab, a novel type II, anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody has been approved in combination with chlorambucil for the treatment of previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and in combination with bendamustine followed by obinutuzumab alone for FL who did not respond to, or who progressed during or after treatment with rituximab or a rituximab-containing regimen, or in relapse after such treatment. Additionally, venetoclax, a small molecule Bcl-2 inhibitor, showed single agent activity in relapsed/refractory (R/R) CLL and other B-cell lymphomas, including R/R FL. Preclinical evidence suggests a synergism of the two drugs in vitro as well as in different lymphoma in vivo models. Based on single agent clinical activity and on the preclinical data of the combination of both drugs and aiming to develop a new chemotherapy-free combination regimen, this trial plans to evaluate the combination of obinutuzumab and venetoclax in previously untreated FL patients in need of systemic therapy. This phase I study will provide information on the safety and tolerability together with evidence of preliminary antitumor activity. Combination treatment consists of a 6 cycles of 28 days each. The combination therapy is followed by a 2 years maintenance with obinutuzumab. Dosing of obinutuzumab is as per Swissmedic approval in FL.Venetoclax will be administered in different dose levels according to the trial design.
