LOTIS 5 Trial Summary

This trial will compare a new immunotherapy drug to the current standard of care for treating a certain type of blood cancer.

Who is the study for?
Adults with Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma who have relapsed or didn't respond to previous treatments can join. They must be in good enough health for the trial, not planning a stem cell transplant, and agree to use effective contraception. People can't join if they're pregnant/breastfeeding, recently used experimental drugs/vaccines, had certain recent treatments including loncastuximab tesirine or R-GemOx, have uncontrolled diseases like HIV/HBV/HCV or severe heart conditions.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing whether combining Loncastuximab Tesirine with Rituximab is more effective than standard immunochemotherapy for treating Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma. Participants will either receive this new combination therapy or the usual treatment involving Gemcitabine and Oxaliplatin.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include allergic reactions to medication components, organ inflammation from immune responses, blood count changes leading to increased infection risk, fatigue, digestive issues due to chemotherapy agents like Gemcitabine and Oxaliplatin.

LOTIS 5 Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Part 2: Loncastuximab Tesirine + Rituximab (Lonca-R)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Randomized participants will receive Lonca-R on Day 1 of each cycle for up to 8 cycles, where 1 cycle is 3 weeks. Lonca-R will be administered via an intravenous infusion of loncastuximab tesirine 150 µg/kg + rituximab 375 mg/m^2 every Q3W for 2 cycles, then loncastuximab tesirine 75 µg/kg + rituximab 375 mg/m^2 Q3W for up to 6 additional cycles.
Group II: Part 1: Loncastuximab Tesirine + Rituximab (Lonca-R)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Part 1 consists of a non-randomized safety run-in period evaluating the study drug for the first 20 participants. Participants will receive Lonca-R on Day 1 of each cycle for up to 8 cycles, where 1 cycle is 3 weeks. Lonca-R will be administered via an intravenous infusion of loncastuximab tesirine 150 µg/kg + rituximab 375 mg/m^2 Q3W for 2 cycles, then loncastuximab tesirine 75 µg/kg + rituximab 375 mg/m^2 Q3W for up to 6 additional cycles.
Group III: Part 2: Standard Immunochemotherapy (R-GemOx)Active Control3 Interventions
Randomized participants will receive R-GemOx consisting of rituximab, gemcitabine and oxaliplatin as a standard immunochemotherapy treatment on Day 1 or Day 2 of each cycle for up to 8 cycles, where 1 Cycle is 2 weeks. R-GemOx will be administered via an intravenous infusion of rituximab 375 mg/m^2 + gemcitabine 1000 mg/m^2 + oxaliplatin 100 mg/m^2 every 2 weeks (Q2W) for up to 8 cycles.
