Overview

Phase II trial shows Rituximab combined with Epcoritamab results in high response rates in follicular lymphoma, suggesting lower CRS risk.

Key Points

  • Overall response rate reached 97% with 91% achieving complete metabolic response in patients.
  • 15 patients (43%) experienced cytokine release syndrome, with those receiving three step-up doses showing significantly reduced rates.
  • Assessment using PET-CT based on Lugano 2014 criteria showed rapid responses after 2 treatment cycles.
  • These findings support continued exploration of this treatment regimen, highlighting the potential for reduced chemotherapy use.
