A Phase 2, Open-label, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Safety and Clinical Activity of Durvalumab in Combination With Rituximab, Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, Prednisone (R-CHOP) or With Lenalidomide Plus R-CHOP (R2-CHOP) in Subjects With Previously Untreated, High-Risk Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma
This Phase 2, two-arm, open-label study is designed to evaluate the safety, clinical
activity, predictive biomarkers and pharmacokinetics/ pharmacodynamics of durvalumab in
combination with R-CHOP (Arm A) or R2-CHOP (Arm B), followed by durvalumab consolidation
therapy in previously untreated subjects with high-risk DLBCL. Induction treatment with
R-CHOP (± Lenalidomide) will last for a total of up to 6 to 8 treatment cycles (21 days
cycle), and the total time on study treatment, including durvalumab consolidation, will last
up to 12 months.
On 05-Sep-2017, the US FDA has issued a Partial Clinical Hold on this study resulting in the
discontinuation of enrolment into Arm B (Durvalumab + Lenalidomide + R-CHOP). After the US
FDA Partial Clinical Hold, new eligible subjects have been enrolled in Arm A (Durvalumab +
R-CHOP).

This research study is conducted in patients with previously untreated, high-risk Diffuse
Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL). Patients with high-risk DLBCL typically have insufficient
therapeutic outcomes. Therefore, the addition of novel agents to the currently used induction
therapy (R-CHOP) is a rational approach to improve therapeutic outcomes in this disease
setting.
Based on pre-clinical and clinical observations, it is hypothesized that durvalumab will have
activity in DLBCL because the PD 1/PD L1 pathway is involved in the pathophysiology of DLBCL.
In particular, the addition of durvalumab may augment the anti-tumor activity of R-CHOP
against high-risk DLBCL subtypes.
The safety of durvalumab has already been explored. However, as there is limited clinical
experience with durvalumab in DLBCL, the study is divided into two stages:
- A Safety Run-in Stage to evaluate the safety of the treatment combinations until at
least 10 subjects are included in each of the two treatment arms
- An Expansion Stage to analyze the clinical activity of the treatment combinations
