Monotherapy, or
Combination therapy:
epcoritamab + venetoclax
epcoritamab + lenalidomide
epcoritamab + R-CHOP (i.e., rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin hydrochloride, vincristine (Oncovin(R)) and prednisone).
The study includes patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (R/R CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) and patients with Richter's Syndrome (RS).
Study participants with R/R CLL/SLL are treated either with epcoritamab as monotherapy or epcoritamab + venetoclax. Study participants with RS are treated either with epcoritamab as monotherapy or epcoritamab + lenalidomide or epcoritamab + R-CHOP. The trial consists of two parts, a dose-escalation phase (phase Ib) and an expansion phase (phase II). Patients with RS are only included in the expansion phase.
Epcoritamab will be injected subcutaneously (under the skin). Standard-of-care and combination treatments (venetoclax, lenalidomide, and R-CHOP) will be given either orally (by mouth) or intravenously (in a vein).
Study details include:
Study duration will be up to 5 years.
The treatment duration for each participant will be between 18 months (1.5 years) and 24 months (2 years), depending upon the treatment arm assigned.
The visit frequency will be either weekly, every other week, or monthly, depending upon the part of the study.
All participants will receive active drug; no one will be given placebo.
