[0056] Unless otherwise indicated, the term "at least" preceding a series of elements is understood to refer to every element in the series.

[0057] Those skilled in the art will recognize, or be able to ascertain using no more than routine experimentation, many equivalents to the specific embodiments described herein which equivalents are intended to be encompassed by the present invention.

[0058] As used herein, the terms "comprises," "comprising," "includes," "including," "has," "having," "contains," "containing," or any other variation thereof, are understood to imply the inclusion of a recited integer or group of integers, but not the exclusion of any other integer or group of integers, and are intended to be non-exclusive or open-ended. For example, a composition, mixture, process, method, article, or device that includes a list of elements is not necessarily limited to only those elements and may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such composition, mixture, process, method, article, or device. Further, unless expressly stated otherwise, "or" refers to an inclusive "or" and not an exclusive "or." For example, a condition A or B is satisfied by any one of the following: A being true (or existing) and B being false (or not existing), A being false (not existing) and B being true (or existing), and both A and B being true (or existing).

[0059] As used herein, the conjunction "and / or" between multiple listed elements is understood to encompass both individual and combined options.

The second option refers to the applicability of the second element without the first element. The third option refers to the applicability of the first and second elements together. Any one of these options is understood to be within the meaning and thus meets the requirements of the term "and / or" as used herein. The simultaneous applicability of more than one of the options is also understood to be within the meaning and thus meets the requirements of the term "and / or."

[0060] As used herein, the terms "comprise", "comprises", or "comprising" may be replaced with "consists of", "consisting of", "consisting essentially of", or "consisting essentially of".

[0061] As used herein, the term "consists of," or variations such as "consist of" or "consisting of," as used in the specification and claims, is inclusive of any recited integer or group of integers, but indicates that additional integers or groups of integers cannot be added to the specified method, structure, or composition.

[0062] As used herein, the term "consists essentially of," or variations such as "consist essentially of" or "consisting essentially of," as used in the specification and claims, refers to the inclusion of any recited integer or group of integers, and the optional inclusion of any recited integer or group of integers that do not materially alter the basic or novel characteristics of the specified method, structure, or composition. See MPEP § 2111.03.

[0063] As used herein, "CD3," also known as "cluster of differentiation 3," refers to a T cell coreceptor that aids in the activation of both cytotoxic T cells (e.g., CD8+ naive T cells) and T helper cells (e.g., CD4+ naive T cells) and is composed of four distinct chains: one CD3γ chain (e.g., Genbank Accession Nos. NM_000073 and MP_000064 (human)), one CD3δ chain (e.g., Genbank Accession Nos. NM_000732, NM_001040651, NP_00732, and NP_001035741 (human)), and two CD3ε chains (e.g., Genbank Accession Nos. NM_000733 and NP_00724 (human)). The chains of CD3 are highly related cell surface proteins of the immunoglobulin superfamily that contain a single extracellular immunoglobulin domain. The CD3 molecule binds to the T cell receptor (TCR) and the zeta chain to form the T cell receptor (TCR) complex, which functions to generate an activation signal for T lymphocytes. In a specific embodiment, the CD3 is human CD3.

[0064] As used herein, "CD20", also known as "B-lymphocyte antigen CD20", "CD20 antigen", "CD20 receptor", "transmembrane 4 domain A1", "transmembrane 4 domain, subfamily A, member 1", "leukocyte surface antigen Leu-16", "Bp35", "B-lymphocyte cell surface antigen 1", "LEU-16", "CVID5", "MS4A", "B1", and "S7", refers to an activated glycosylated phosphorylated protein expressed on the surface of B cells and encoded in humans by the MS4A1 gene (e.g., Genbank accession numbers NM_152866, NM_021950, NP_068769, and NP_690605 (human)). CD20 plays a role in B-cell development and differentiation into plasma cells. In a specific embodiment, CD20 is human CD20.

[0065] As used herein, "CD19", also known as "B cell surface antigen B4", "B cell antigen CD19", "CD19 antigen", and "Leu-12" refer to a cell surface protein expressed by B cells and encoded by a gene designated CD19 (e.g., HGNC:1633, NCBI Entrez Gene:930, Ensembl:ENSG00000177455, OMIM®:107265, UniProtKB / Swiss-Prot:P15391). CD19 is involved in B cell activation and signaling pathways. In a specific embodiment, CD19 is human CD19.

[0066] As used herein, "lenalidomide" refers to the thalidomide analog 3-(4-amino-1-oxo-1,3-dihydro-isoindol-2-yl)-piperidine-2,6-dione (Compound A), or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt, solvate, or stereoisomer thereof. Lenalidomide is an immunomodulatory agent with antiangiogenic and antineoplastic properties.

[0067] As used herein, the term "bispecific antibody" or "multispecific antibody" refers to any non-natural or alternative antibody format that binds to two or more different antigens (e.g., CD3xCD20 multispecific antibody).

[0068] As used herein, the term "antibody" is used in a broad sense and includes antibody molecules, including immunoglobulins or human, humanized, composite and chimeric antibodies, as well as antibody fragments that are monoclonal or polyclonal. In general, an antibody is a protein or peptide chain that exhibits binding specificity to a specific antigen. The structure of an antibody is well known. Immunoglobulins can be assigned to five major classes (i.e., IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM) depending on the heavy chain constant domain amino acid sequence. IgA and IgG are further subclassified as isotypes IgA1, IgA2, IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4. Thus, the antibodies provided herein can be of any of the five major classes or corresponding subclasses. In specific embodiments, the antibodies provided herein are IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, or IgG4. In specific embodiments, the antibodies provided herein are IgG. In other embodiments, the antibodies provided herein are IgG1. Antibody light chains of vertebrate species can be assigned to one of two clearly distinct types, kappa and lambda, based on the amino acid sequences of their constant domains. Thus, the antibodies provided herein may, in certain embodiments, contain a kappa light chain constant domain. The antibodies provided herein may, in certain embodiments, also contain a lambda light chain constant domain. According to certain embodiments, the antibodies provided herein comprise heavy and / or light chain constant regions derived from a rat or human antibody. In specific embodiments, the constant regions are human constant regions.

[0069] In addition to heavy and light chain constant domains, antibodies contain an antigen-binding region made up of a light chain variable region (VL) and a heavy chain variable region (VH), each of which contains three domains, i.e., complementarity determining region 1 (CDR1), CDR2, and CDR3. "CDR" refers to one of the three hypervariable regions (HCDR1, HCDR2, or HCDR3) in the non-framework region of an immunoglobulin (Ig or antibody) VH β-sheet framework, or one of the three hypervariable regions (LCDR1, LCDR2, or LCDR3) in the non-framework region of an antibody VL β-sheet framework. Thus, CDRs are variable region sequences interspersed within framework region sequences. CDR regions are well known to those skilled in the art and are defined, for example, by Kabat (Kabat et al., 2003) as the most hypervariable regions within an antibody variable (V) domain. al., J. Biol. Chem. 252:6609-6616 (1977); Kabat, Adv. Prot. Chem. 32:1-75 (1978)). CDR region sequences have also been structurally defined by Chothia as residues that are not part of the conserved β-sheet framework and thus can accommodate different conformations (Chothia and Lesk, J. Mol. Biol. 196:901-917 (1987)). Both terms are well recognized in the art. CDR region sequences have also been defined by AbM, Contact, and IMGT. Exemplary CDR region sequences are shown herein, for example, in the tables and / or examples provided below. The locations of CDRs within standard antibody variable regions have been determined by comparing multiple structures (Al-Lazikani et al., J. Mol. Biol. 273:927-948 (1997); Morea et al., Methods 20:267-279 (2000)). Because the number of residues in the hypervariable regions varies among antibodies, the additional residues relative to the canonical positions are conventionally numbered with a, b, c, etc. next to the residue number in the canonical variable region numbering scheme (Al-Lazikani et al., supra (1997)). Such nomenclature is likewise well known to those of skill in the art.

[0070] The light chain variable region CDR1 domain is herein interchangeably referred to as LCDR1 or VL CDR1. The light chain variable region CDR2 domain is herein interchangeably referred to as LCDR2 or VL CDR2. The light chain variable region CDR3 domain is herein interchangeably referred to as LCDR3 or VL CDR3. The heavy chain variable region CDR1 domain is herein interchangeably referred to as HCDR1 or VH CDR1. The heavy chain variable region CDR2 domain is herein interchangeably referred to as HCDR2 or VH CDR2. The heavy chain variable region CDR1 domain is herein interchangeably referred to as HCDR3 or VH CDR3.

[0071] As used herein, the term "hypervariable region", e.g., "VH" or "VL", refers to the region of an antibody variable region that is hypervariable in sequence and / or forms structurally defined loops. Generally, antibodies contain six hypervariable regions, three in the VH (HCDR1, HCDR2, HCDR3) and three in the VL (LCDR1, LCDR2, LCDR3). Several hypervariable region descriptive methods are in use and are encompassed herein. The "Kabat" CDRs are based on sequence variability and are the most commonly used (see, e.g., Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th Ed. Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD. (1991)). Meanwhile, Chothia refers to the location of the structural loops (see, e.g., Chothia and Lesk, J. Mol. Biol. 196:901-917 (1987)). When numbered using the Kabat numbering convention, the end of the Chothia CDR-HCDR1 loop varies between H32 and H34 depending on the length of the loop (this is because the Kabat numbering scheme places insertions at H35A and H35B, so that if neither 35A nor 35B are present, the loop ends at 32, if only 35A is present, the loop ends at 33, and if both 35A and 35B are present, the loop ends at 34). The "AbM" hypervariable regions are a compromise between the Kabat CDRs and Chothia structural loops and are used by Oxford Molecular's AbM antibody modeling software (see, for example, Martin, in Antibody Engineering, Vol. 2, Chapter 3, Springer Verlag). The "Contact" hypervariable regions are based on an analysis of available complex crystal structures.

[0072] Recently, a universal numbering system has been developed and widely adopted (ImMunoGeneTics (IMGT) Information System® (Lafranc et al., Dev. Comp. Immunol. 27(1):55-77 (2003))). IMGT is an integrated information system dedicated to immunoglobulins (IG), T cell receptors (TR), and major histocompatibility complexes (MHC) of humans and other vertebrates. Herein, CDRs are referred to both in terms of amino acid sequence and location within the light or heavy chain. The "location" of the CDRs within the structure of an immunoglobulin variable domain is easily identified by using a numbering system that aligns variable domain sequences according to structural features, CDR and framework residues, since they are conserved across species and occur in structures called loops. This information can be used to graft and replace CDR residues from one type of immunoglobulin into an acceptor framework, usually derived from a human antibody. An additional numbering system (AHon) has been developed by Honegger and Pluckthun, J. Mol. Biol. 309:657-670 (2001). Correspondence between numbering systems, including, for example, the Kabat numbering and the IMGT unique numbering system, is well known to those of skill in the art (see, for example, Kabat, supra; Chothia and Lesk, supra; Martin, supra; Lefranc et al., supra). The exemplary system presented herein combines Kabat and Chothia. [Table 1]

[0073] The hypervariable regions may include extended hypervariable regions such as: 24-36 or 24-34 (LCDR1), 46-56 or 50-56 (LCDR2), and 89-97 or 89-96 (LCDR3) in VL, and 26-35 or 26-35A (HCDR1), 50-65 or 49-65 (HCDR2), and 93-102, 94-102, or 95-102 (HCDR3) in VH. CDR sequences reflecting each of the above numbering schemes are provided herein.

[0074] The term "constant region" or "constant domain" refers to the carboxy-terminal portions of the light and heavy chains that are not directly involved in binding the antibody to an antigen, but exhibit various effector functions, such as interaction with Fc receptors. The term refers to the portion of the immunoglobulin molecule that has a more conserved amino acid sequence compared to the other portion of the immunoglobulin, the variable region, which contains the antigen-binding site. The constant region may contain the CH1, CH2, and CH3 regions of the heavy chain and the CL region of the light chain.

[0075] The term "framework" or "FR" residues are those variable region residues which flank the CDRs. FR residues are present, for example, in chimeric, humanized, human, domain, diabodies, linear, and bispecific antibodies. FR residues are variable domain residues other than the hypervariable region or CDR residues.

[0076] The term "antigen binding domain" as used herein refers to a set of six CDRs that specifically binds to a target antigen as discussed herein when present as part of a polypeptide sequence. Thus, a "checkpoint antigen binding domain" binds to a target checkpoint antigen as outlined herein. As known in the art, these CDRs are generally present as a first set of variable heavy chain CDRs (vhCDRs or VHCDRs) and a second set of variable light chain CDRs (vlCDRs or VLCDRs), each of which comprises three CDRs (vhCDR1, vhCDR2, and vhCDR3 for the heavy chain, and vlCDR1, vlCDR2, and vlCDR3 for the light chain). The CDRs are present in the variable heavy chain domain and the variable light chain domain, respectively, and together form an Fv region. Thus, in some cases, the six CDRs of the antigen binding domain are provided by the variable heavy chain domain and the variable light chain domain. In the "Fab" format, the set of six CDRs is provided by two different polypeptide sequences, namely a variable heavy domain (vh or VH; containing VH CDR1, VH CDR2, and VH CDR3) and a variable light domain (vl or VL; containing VL CDR1, VL CDR2, and VL CDR3), with the C-terminus of the VH domain attached to the N-terminus of the CH1 domain of the heavy chain and the C-terminus of the VL domain attached to the N-terminus of the constant light domain (thus forming the light chain). In the scFv format, the VH and VL domains are generally covalently linked by the use of a linker ("scFv linker") as outlined herein into a single polypeptide sequence. This can be either VH-linker-VL or VL-linker-VH (starting from the N-terminus), with the former generally being preferred (including optional domain linkers on either side, depending on the format used).

[0077] Generally, the C-terminus of the scFv domain is attached to the N-terminus of the hinge of a second monomer.

[0078] As used herein, the term "isolated antibody" refers to an antibody that is substantially free of other antibodies having different antigenic specificities (e.g., an isolated antibody that specifically binds to a given target is substantially free of antibodies that do not bind to that same target). Moreover, an isolated antibody is substantially free of other cellular material and / or chemicals.

[0079] As used herein, the term "monoclonal antibody" refers to an antibody obtained from a population of substantially homogeneous antibodies, i.e., the individual antibodies that make up the population are identical except for the possible presence of minor naturally occurring mutations. The monoclonal antibodies provided herein can be produced by hybridoma methods, phage display techniques, single lymphocyte gene cloning techniques, or by recombinant DNA methods. For example, monoclonal antibodies can be produced by hybridomas that contain B cells obtained from a transgenic non-human animal, such as a transgenic mouse or rat, whose genome contains human heavy chain transgenes and light chain transgenes.

[0080] As used herein, the term "antigen-binding fragment" refers to an antibody fragment, such as a diabody, Fab, Fab', F(ab'), Fv fragment, disulfide-stabilized Fv fragment (dsFv), (dsFv), bispecific dsFv (dsFv-dsFv'), disulfide-stabilized diabody (ds diabody), single-chain antibody molecule (scFv), single domain antibody (sdAb), scFv dimer (bivalent diabody), multispecific antibody formed from a portion of an antibody comprising one or more CDRs, camelized single domain antibody, nanobody, domain antibody, bivalent domain antibody, or any other antibody fragment that binds to an antigen but does not comprise a complete antibody structure. An antigen-binding fragment can bind to the same antigen as that bound by the parent antibody or parent antibody fragment. According to certain embodiments, the antigen-binding fragment comprises a light chain variable region, a light chain constant region, and an Fv segment of a heavy chain. According to other particular embodiments, the antigen-binding fragment comprises a Fab and a F(ab').

[0081] As used herein, the term "single chain antibody" refers to a conventional single chain antibody in the field that contains a heavy chain variable region and a light chain variable region connected by a short peptide of about 15 to about 20 amino acids. As used herein, the term "single domain antibody" refers to a conventional single domain antibody in the field that contains a heavy chain variable region and a heavy chain constant region, or contains only a heavy chain variable region.

[0082] As used herein, "Fab" or "Fab region" generally refers to a polypeptide that comprises the VH, CH1, VL, and CL immunoglobulin domains of two different polypeptide chains (e.g., VH-CH1 in one chain and VL-CL in the other). Fab may refer to this region in isolation or in the context of a bispecific antibody provided herein. In the context of Fab, Fab includes the Fv region in addition to the CH1 and CL domains.

[0083] As used herein, "Fv", "Fv fragment", or "Fv region" refers to a polypeptide comprising the VL and VH domains of the ABD. The Fv region can be formatted as both a Fab (which, as discussed above, are generally two different polypeptides that also contain a constant region as outlined above) and an scFv, where the VL and VH domains are combined (generally by a linker as discussed herein) to form an scFv.

[0084] The term "single-chain Fv" or "scFv" generally refers to a variable heavy domain covalently linked to a variable light domain by the use of an scFv linker as discussed herein to form an scFv or scFv domain. The scFv domain can be present in either orientation (VH-linker-VL or VL-linker-VH) from N-terminus to C-terminus. The order of the VH and VL domains can be indicated in the name. For example, H.X_L.Y means that from N-terminus to C-terminus, it is VH-linker-VL and L.Y_H.X is VL-linker-VH.

[0085] As used herein, the terms "Fc", "Fc region", or "Fc domain" refer to a polypeptide comprising the CH2-CH3 domain of an IgG molecule, optionally including the hinge. In the EU numbering of human IgG1, the CH2-CH3 domain comprises amino acids 231-447, and the hinge is 216-230. Thus, the definition of "Fc domain" includes either amino acids 231-447 (CH2-CH3) or 216-447 (hinge-CH2-CH3), or fragments thereof. An "Fc fragment" in this context may contain fewer amino acids from either or both the N-terminus and C-terminus, but generally still retains the ability to form a dimer with another Fc domain or Fc fragment, as can be detected using standard methods based on size (e.g., non-denaturing chromatography, size exclusion chromatography, etc.). Human IgG Fc domains are particularly useful in the methods provided herein and can be Fc domains from human IgG1, IgG2, or IgG4.

[0086] As used herein, "heavy chain constant region" refers to the CH1-hinge-CH2-CH3 portion of an antibody (or fragment thereof), excluding the variable heavy domain (in EU numbering for human IgG1, this is amino acids 118-447). By "heavy chain constant region fragment" herein is meant a heavy chain constant region that contains fewer amino acids from either or both the N-terminus and C-terminus, but still retains the ability to form a dimer with another heavy chain constant region.

[0087] As used herein, a "variable region" or "variable domain" refers to a region of an immunoglobulin that includes one or more Ig domains substantially encoded by any of the Vκ, Vλ, and / or VH genes that constitute the kappa, lambda, and heavy chain immunoglobulin loci, respectively, and contains the CDRs that confer antigen specificity. Thus, a "variable heavy domain" pairs with a "variable light domain" to form an antigen-binding domain ("ABD"). In addition, each variable domain includes three hypervariable regions ("complementarity determining regions", "CDRs") (vhCDR1, vhCDR2, and vhCDR3 for the variable heavy domain, and vlCDR1, vlCDR2, and vlCDR3 for the variable light domain) and four framework (FR) regions (arranged from amino-terminus to carboxy-terminus in the following order: FR1-CDR1-FR2-CDR2-FR3-CDR3-FR4).

[0088] As used herein, the term "multispecific antibody" refers to an antibody that comprises multiple immunoglobulin variable domain sequences, where a first immunoglobulin variable domain sequence of the multiple has binding specificity for a first epitope and a second immunoglobulin variable domain sequence of the multiple has binding specificity for a second epitope. In certain embodiments, the first and second epitopes do not overlap or do not substantially overlap. In certain embodiments, the first and second epitopes are on different antigens, e.g., different proteins (or different subunits of a multimeric protein).

[0089] As used herein, the term "bispecific antibody" refers to a multispecific antibody that binds no more than two epitopes or no more than two antigens. A bispecific antibody is characterized by a first immunoglobulin variable domain sequence that has binding specificity for a first epitope and a second immunoglobulin variable domain sequence that has binding specificity for a second epitope.

[0090] Provided herein are multiple antibody domains that have sequence identity with human antibody domains. In the context of two or more nucleic acid or polypeptide sequences, the term "identical" or percent "identity" refers to two or more sequences or subsequences that are identical or have a certain percentage of amino acid residues or nucleotides that are identical when compared and aligned for maximum correspondence, as measured by one of the following sequence comparison algorithms or by visual inspection. For sequence comparison, typically, one sequence serves as a reference sequence to which test sequences are compared. When using a sequence comparison algorithm, test and reference sequences are input into a computer, subsequence coordinates are designated as necessary, and sequence algorithm program parameters are designated. The sequence comparison algorithm then calculates the percent sequence identity of the test sequence(s) relative to the reference sequence based on the designated program parameters.

[0091] Sequence identity between two similar sequences (e.g., antibody variable domains) can be determined by the methods of Smith, TF & Waterman, MS (1981) “Comparison of Biosequences,” Adv. Appl. Math. 2:482 [local homology algorithm]; Needleman, SB & Wunsch, CD. (1970) “A General Method Applicable to the Search for Similarities in the Amino Acid Sequence of Two Proteins,” J. Mol. Biol. 48:443 [homology alignment algorithm]; Pearson, WR & Lipman, DJ (1988) “Improved Tools for Biological Sequence Comparison,” Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. (USA) 85:2444 [similarity search]; or Altschul, SF et al, (1990) “Basic Local Alignment Search Tool,” The sequence identity can be measured by an algorithm such as the algorithm of J. Mol. Biol. 215:403-10 (the "BLAST" algorithm) (see, e.g., blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov / Blast.cgi). When using any of the aforementioned algorithms, default parameters (for window length, gap penalties, etc.) are used. In one embodiment, sequence identity is performed using the BLAST algorithm using default parameters.

[0092] Examples of algorithms suitable for determining percent sequence identity and sequence similarity are the BLAST and BLAST 2.0 algorithms, which are described in Altschul et al. (1990) J. Mol. Biol. 215:403-410 and Altschul et al. (1997) Nucleic Acids Res. 25:3389-3402, respectively. Software for performing BLAST analyses is publicly available at the National Center for Biotechnology Information. This algorithm involves identifying high-scoring sequence pairs (HSPs) by first identifying short words W in the query sequence that match or meet some positive threshold score T when aligned with words of the same length in database sequences. T is referred to as the neighborhood word score threshold (Altschul et al., supra). These initial neighborhood word hits act as seeds for initiating searches to find longer HSPs containing them. The word hits are extended in both directions along each sequence for as far as the cumulative alignment score can be increased.

[0093] Cumulative scores are calculated using the parameters M (reward score for a pair of matching residues; always >0) and N (penalty score for mismatching residues; always <0) for nucleotide sequences. For amino acid sequences, a scoring matrix is ​​used to calculate the cumulative score. Extension of the word hits in each direction is halted when the cumulative alignment score falls off its maximum achieved value by an amount X, when the cumulative score falls below zero due to the accumulation of one or more negative scoring residue alignments, or when the end of either sequence is reached. The BLAST algorithm parameters W, T, and X determine the sensitivity and speed of the alignment. The BLASTN program (for nucleotide sequences) uses by default a wordlength (W) of 11, an expectation (E) of 10, M=5, N=-4, and a comparison of both strands. For amino acid sequences, the BLASTP program uses as defaults a wordlength of 3, an expectation (E) of 10, and the BLOSUM62 scoring matrix (see Henikoff & Henikoff, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 89:10915 (1989)).

[0094] In addition to calculating percent sequence identity, the BLAST algorithm also performs a statistical analysis of the similarity between two sequences (see, for example, Karlin & Altschul, Proc. Nat'l. Acad. Sci. USA 90:5873-5787 (1993)). One measure of similarity provided by the BLAST algorithm is the minimum sum probability (P(N)), which provides an indication of the probability that a match between two nucleotide or amino acid sequences will occur by chance. For example, a nucleic acid is considered to be similar to a reference sequence if the minimum sum probability when comparing the test nucleic acid with the reference nucleic acid is less than about 0.1, more preferably less than about 0.01, and most preferably less than about 0.001.

[0095] Another indicator that two nucleic acid sequences or polypeptides are substantially identical is that the polypeptide encoded by the first nucleic acid is immunologically cross-reactive with the polypeptide encoded by the second nucleic acid, as described below.Thus, for example, when two peptides differ only in conservative substitution, the polypeptide is typically substantially identical to the second polypeptide.Another indicator that two nucleic acid sequences are substantially identical is that the two molecules hybridize to each other under stringent conditions.

[0096] The antibodies provided herein are generally isolated or recombinant antibodies. When used to describe various polypeptides disclosed herein, "isolated" refers to a polypeptide that is identified, separated and / or recovered from a cell or cell culture in which the polypeptide is expressed. Usually, an isolated polypeptide is prepared by at least one purification step. "Isolated antibody" refers to an antibody that is substantially free of other antibodies having different antigen specificities. "Recombinant" means that the antibodies are produced using recombinant nucleic acid techniques in an exogenous host cell and may be isolated.

[0097] As used herein, the term "polynucleotide" is synonymously referred to as "nucleic acid molecule," "nucleotide," or "nucleic acid" and refers to any polyribonucleotide or polydeoxyribonucleotide, which may be unmodified RNA or DNA or modified RNA or DNA. "Polynucleotide" includes, but is not limited to, single-stranded and double-stranded DNA, DNA that is a mixture of single-stranded and double-stranded regions, single-stranded and double-stranded RNA, and RNA that is a mixture of single-stranded and double-stranded regions, hybrid molecules containing DNA and RNA that may be single-stranded or, more typically, double-stranded, or may be a mixture of single-stranded and double-stranded regions. In addition, "polynucleotide" refers to triple-stranded regions that include RNA or DNA, or both RNA and DNA. The term polynucleotide also includes DNA or RNA that contains one or more modified bases, and DNA or RNA with backbones modified for stability or other reasons. "Modified" bases include, for example, tritylated bases and rare bases such as inosine. Various modifications can be made to DNA and RNA. Thus, "polynucleotide" includes chemically, enzymatically, or metabolically modified forms of polynucleotides typically found in nature, as well as the chemical forms of DNA and RNA characteristic of viruses and cells. "Polynucleotide" also includes relatively short nucleic acid strands often referred to as oligonucleotides.

[0098] As used herein, the terms "peptide", "polypeptide", or "protein" may refer to a molecule composed of amino acids and may be recognized as a protein by those skilled in the art. Conventional one-letter or three-letter codes for amino acid residues are used herein. The terms "polypeptide", "peptide", and "protein" may be used interchangeably herein to refer to a polymer of amino acids of any length. The polymer may be linear or branched, may contain modified amino acids, and may be interrupted by non-amino acids. These terms also encompass amino acid polymers that are modified naturally or by intervention, such as disulfide bond formation, glycosylation, lipidation, acetylation, phosphorylation, or any other manipulation or modification, such as conjugation with a labeling component. For example, polypeptides containing one or more analogs of an amino acid (including, for example, unnatural amino acids, etc.), as well as other modifications known in the art, are also included in this definition.

[0099] The peptide sequences described herein are written according to the usual convention that the N-terminal region of the peptide is on the left and the C-terminal region is on the right. Although isomeric forms of amino acids are known, it is the L-form of the amino acid that is represented unless expressly indicated otherwise.

[0100] As used herein, the terms "treat", "treatment", and "treating" refer to the reduction or amelioration or elimination of the progression, severity, and / or effects associated with a solid malignant tumor described herein, or the improvement of the condition of the solid malignant tumor, or the improvement of a disease associated with a solid malignant tumor, or the increase in the immune system response of a human subject, or the improvement of one or more symptoms (preferably one or more identifiable symptoms) of a solid malignant tumor described herein, resulting from the administration of one or more therapies. In specific embodiments, the terms "treat", "treatment", and "treating" refer to the improvement of at least one measurable physical parameter of a solid malignant tumor described herein, such as tumor size, tumor growth rate, tumor cell count, tumor invasiveness, the presence of metastases, or the extent of metastases. In other embodiments, the terms "treat", "treatment", and "treating" refer to the inhibition of progression of a solid malignant tumor described herein, either physically (e.g., by stabilizing an identifiable symptom), physiologically (e.g., by stabilizing a physical parameter), or both. In other embodiments, the terms "treat", "treatment", and "treating" refer to an increase in the immune system response of a human subject, e.g., increased T cell infiltration, increased T cell activation, upregulation of the IFN pathway, upregulation of the antigen presentation pathway, or increased Ki67+ induction in T cells following treatment with pembrolizumab or nivolumab. In exemplary embodiments, treatment of a solid malignant tumor improves or halts the progression of a disease or tumor condition associated with the tumor and / or improves or halts the progression of symptoms associated with the disease or condition. For example, treatment of a solid malignant tumor refers to one or more of the following: (1) a reduction in solid malignant tumor cell number, (2) an increase in solid malignant tumor cell death, (3) an inhibition of solid malignant tumor cell survival, (5) an inhibition (i.e., a slowing to some extent, and preferably a halt in progression) of solid malignant tumor growth (e.g., stabilization of disease), (6) an inhibition of solid malignant tumor cell metastasis, (7) an increase in progression-free survival, (8) an increase in overall survival, and (9) some alleviation of one or more symptoms associated with the disease or condition.Additional explanations regarding treatment can be found in the RECIST criteria (Eisenhauer et al. (2009) Eur J Cancer. 45:228-47; Chalian et al. (2011) Radiographics 31:2093-105), imRECIST criteria (Hodi et al. (2018) J Clin Oncol. 36:850-858), modified IrRC criteria (Wolchok et al. (2009) Clin Cancer Res. 15:7412-20), and PCWG3 criteria (Scher, et al. (2016) Clin Oncol. 34:1402-18). In some embodiments, treating the solid malignancy involves administering the bispecific antibody for a pre-specified period of time, discontinuing administration for another specific period of time, and resuming administration of the bispecific antibody for yet another specific period of time. In some embodiments, treatment of solid malignancies involves administering the bispecific antibody until one of the therapeutic effects described herein is achieved, withdrawing administration of the bispecific antibody while the therapeutic effect continues to be observed, and resuming administration of the bispecific antibody when the therapeutic effect is no longer observed.

[0101] Treatment of solid malignant tumors can be determined by standardized response criteria specific to tumor-related disease or tumor condition.Response of solid malignant tumors can be evaluated by screening techniques, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan, positron emission tomography (PET) scan, X-ray imaging, radionuclide scan, computed tomography (CT) scan, bone scan imaging, endoscopy, tumor sampling including bone marrow aspiration (BMA), and tumor marker levels and / or tumor cell counting in circulation, by changes in tumor morphology (i.e., by the use of neoadjuvants in treatment, such as evaluating pathological response) or tumor metrics (i.e., overall tumor burden, tumor size, etc.).

[0102] Treatment according to the methods provided herein includes use of a "therapeutically effective amount" of an agent. A "therapeutically effective amount" refers to an amount effective, at dosages and for periods of time necessary, to achieve the desired therapeutic result.

[0103] A therapeutically effective amount may vary depending on factors such as the medical condition, age, sex, and weight of the individual, as well as the ability of the agent to elicit a desired response in the individual. A therapeutically effective amount is also one in which any toxic or detrimental effects of the antibody or antibody portion are outweighed by the therapeutically beneficial effects.

[0104] A "therapeutically effective amount" for tumor therapy may also be measured by its ability to stabilize disease progression. The ability of a compound to inhibit cancer can be evaluated in animal model systems predictive of efficacy in human tumors.

[0105] Alternatively, this property of the composition can be evaluated by examining the ability of the compound to inhibit cell proliferation or induce apoptosis by in vitro assays known to those of skill in the art. A therapeutically effective amount of a therapeutic compound may reduce tumor size or otherwise ameliorate symptoms in a subject. One of skill in the art can determine such an amount based on factors such as the size of the subject, the severity of the subject's symptoms, and the particular composition or route of administration selected.

[0106] The terms "patient," "subject," and "human subject" are used interchangeably herein. As used herein, "subject" means any animal, preferably a mammal, most preferably a human. As used herein, the term "mammal" encompasses any mammal. Examples of mammals include, but are not limited to, cows, horses, sheep, pigs, cats, dogs, mice, rats, rabbits, guinea pigs, monkeys, humans, etc. In a specific embodiment, the subject is a human.

[0159] As used herein, unless otherwise indicated, the term "stereoisomerically pure" refers to a composition that contains one stereoisomer of a compound (e.g., compound A) and is substantially free of other stereoisomers of that compound. For example, a stereoisomerically pure composition of a compound having one chiral center will be substantially free of the opposite enantiomer of that compound. A stereoisomerically pure composition of a compound having two chiral centers will be substantially free of other diastereomers of that compound. A typical stereoisomerically pure compound contains more than about 80% by weight of one stereoisomer of that compound and less than about 20% by weight of other stereoisomers of that compound, more preferably more than about 90% by weight of one stereoisomer of that compound and less than about 10% by weight of other stereoisomers of that compound, even more preferably more than about 95% by weight of one stereoisomer of that compound and less than about 5% by weight of other stereoisomers of that compound, and most preferably more than about 97% by weight of one stereoisomer of that compound and less than about 3% by weight of other stereoisomers of that compound. As used herein, unless otherwise indicated, the term "stereoisomerically enriched" refers to a composition that contains greater than about 60% by weight of one stereoisomer of a compound, preferably greater than about 70% by weight, and more preferably greater than about 80% by weight of one stereoisomer of a compound. As used herein, unless otherwise indicated, the term "enantiomerically pure" refers to a stereoisomerically pure composition of a compound having one chiral center. Similarly, the term "stereoisomerically enriched" refers to a stereoisomerically enriched composition of a compound having one chiral center.

[0160] It should be noted that in the event of a discrepancy between a depicted structure and a name given to that structure, the depicted structure should prevail. Furthermore, if the stereochemistry of a structure or portion of a structure is not shown, for example, in bold or dashed lines, then that structure or portion of the structure is to be interpreted as encompassing all stereoisomers thereof.

[0161] 4.4. Treatment Method The methods provided herein are useful for the treatment of lymphomas, including, but not limited to, non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, such as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).

[0162] Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is a diverse group of malignant tumors that are primarily of B-cell origin. NHL can develop in any organ associated with the lymphatic system, such as the spleen, lymph nodes, or tonsils, and can occur at any age. NHL is often characterized by swollen lymph nodes, fever, and weight loss. NHL is classified as either B-cell NHL or T-cell NHL. Lymphomas associated with lymphoproliferative disorders after bone marrow or stem cell transplantation are usually B-cell NHL. NHL is classified into low-grade, intermediate-grade, and high-grade categories according to its natural history (see "The Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Pathologic Classification Project," Cancer 49(1982):2112-2135). Low-grade lymphomas are indolent, with a median survival of 5 to 10 years (Horning and Rosenberg (1984) N. Engl. J. Med. 311:1471-1475). Chemotherapy can induce remission in the majority of indolent lymphomas, but cures are rare and most patients eventually relapse and require further treatment. Intermediate- and high-grade lymphomas are more aggressive tumors but are more likely to be cured with chemotherapy. However, the majority of these patients will relapse and require further treatment.

[0163] DLBCL is the most common subtype of NHL. Since the introduction of the anti-CD20 antibody rituximab, approximately 50%-70% of patients can achieve cure with initial standard-of-care immunochemotherapy. However, for patients who are resistant to or relapse after frontline therapy, the prognosis is poor. The implementation of salvage chemotherapy followed by high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) has some advantages in this setting and is associated with significant toxicity. Furthermore, most patients are ineligible for this approach, leaving few treatment options. Thus, there remains a great need to provide effective treatment options for patients with relapsed or refractory (R / R) DLBCL who are ineligible for ASCT (Coiffier B et al. Hematology Am Soc Hematol Educ Program. 2016;(1):366-78).

[0252] In an exemplary embodiment, efficacy is assessed based on Cheson BD et al (2014) "Recommendations for Initial Evaluation, Staging and Response Assessment of Hodgkin and Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma: The Lugano Classification." J Clin Oncol 32:3059-3067. In one embodiment, efficacy is assessed by evaluating fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)-computed tomography (CT) (e.g., for FDG-avid lymphoma). In one embodiment, efficacy is assessed using PET-CT (e.g., for patients showing radiological (CT) Cru or partial response (PR) in non-Hodgkin lymphoma (e.g., DLBCL)). In another embodiment, PET-CT is used to assess the subject's response to the methods of the present disclosure using a 5-point scale (e.g., for clinical trials, interim evaluations, or end-of-treatment evaluations) (Table 15). In another embodiment, interim PET-CT is used to assess early treatment response and / or to confirm remission status at the end of treatment. In one embodiment, a score of 1 or 2 on the PET-CT indicates metabolic complete response at the intermediate time point and / or at the end of treatment. In another embodiment, a change in PET-CT score from 5 to 1 indicates that the patient has achieved metabolic complete response (see Table 15). In another embodiment, a change in PET-CT score from 4 to 1 indicates that the patient has achieved metabolic complete response (see Table 15).

In another embodiment, a change in PET-CT score from 4 to 2 indicates that the patient has achieved metabolic complete response (see Table 15). In one embodiment, if the PET-CT score is 1, the patient has achieved metabolic complete response. In one embodiment, if the PET-CT score is 2, the patient has achieved metabolic complete response.In another embodiment, patients with uptake above the mediastinum but below the liver (score 3) indicate a good prognosis at the end of treatment for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (e.g., DLBCL). In another embodiment, the interpretation of a score of 3 depends on the timing of the assessment, the clinical situation, and the treatment (e.g., in response-adaptive trials looking for de-escalation of treatment, a score of 3 may be considered an inadequate response (to avoid undertreatment)). In another embodiment, a score of 4 or 5 at intermediate time points indicates chemotherapy-sensitive disease (e.g., the uptake provided is reduced from baseline) and / or indicates a partial metabolic response. In another embodiment, a score of 4 or 5 for residual metabolic disease at the end of treatment indicates treatment failure, even if the uptake is reduced from baseline. In another embodiment, a score of 4 or 5 with unchanged or even increasing intensity from baseline and / or new lesions compatible with lymphoma indicates treatment failure at intermediate time points and end of treatment evaluation. In another embodiment, a CT-based response is used (e.g., for tissues with low or variable FDG avidity and / or when PET-CT is not available). In another embodiment, a 50% or greater increase in the product of perpendicular diameters (PPD) of a single lymph node is indicative of progressive disease by CT criteria. In another embodiment, follow-up scans are used for indolent lymphomas with residual intraperitoneal or retroperitoneal disease.

[Table 3-1] [Table 3-2] [Table 3-3] [Table 3-4] EXAMPLES

[0255] 5. Working Example Examples are provided below to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the invention to any particular application or theory of operation. Example 1 - Treatment of Lymphoma with a Combination of Pramotamab, Tafasitamab, and Lenalidomide

[0256] A multicenter, randomized, open-label, phase 2 study will be conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pramotamab in combination with tafasitamab and lenalidomide in subjects with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (R / R DLBCL).

[0257] The combination of tafasitamab in combination with lenalidomide has been approved in the United States for accelerated use in patients with R / R DLBCL, NOS. Tafasitamab is an Fc-modified monoclonal antibody that binds to the CD19 antigen expressed on the surface of pre-B and mature B lymphocytes, as well as on several B-cell malignancies, including DLBCL. In a single-arm clinical trial (NCT02399085), tafasitamab in combination with lenalidomide resulted in a 57.5% response rate in R / R DLBCL, with a median DOR of 43.9 months and a median PFS of 11.6 months (Duell Haematologica. 2021;106(9):2417-26). Pramotamab is a humanized bsAb that binds to both CD3 and the tumor antigen CD20 to recruit cytotoxic T cells to kill CD20 tumor cells. In an ongoing phase 1 trial (Study XmAb13676-01, NCT02924402), pramotamab produced durable responses in subjects with R / R DLBCL.

[0258] Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is hypothesized that binding of both CD19 and CD20 antigens improves efficacy outcomes in this population due to non-overlapping resistance mechanisms. Furthermore, the combination activates and expands innate immune system cells and adaptive effector cells, and modulates the tumor microenvironment. These characteristics support and justify the testing of the combination of pramotamab, tafasitamab, and lenalidomide. The study will first determine whether the combination of the three products can be safely administered and determine the dose for part 2. The second part of the study is designed to determine the improvement in efficacy, as assessed by PFS, of the addition of pramotamab to the standard of care for DLBCL, tafasitamab and lenalidomide.

[0259] This is a multicenter, randomized, open-label, phase 2 study comparing the combination of tafasitamab plus lenalidomide and pramotamab with tafasitamab plus lenalidomide in adult subjects with DLBCL who have relapsed after or are refractory to at least one prior line of treatment that must have included combination chemoimmunotherapy including an anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody, or who are not candidates for, refuse ASCT, or have relapsed after ASCT.

[0260] After enrollment, the diagnosis of DLBCL will be confirmed retrospectively using archival or recently obtained tissue by central pathologist review. A central radiology and clinical reviewer will assess objective disease response according to the Lugano 2014 (Cheson, 2014 J Clin Oncol. 2014;32(27):3059-68) guidelines. Details of the central review will be provided in an imaging charter outlining the function and process. In addition, investigator-assessed responses will be recorded in a clinical database and concordant analyses will be performed. All subjects will be treated until progression or discontinuation for other reasons, and then followed for up to 5 years for OS.

[0261] The study consists of two sequential parts: Part 1 will enroll subjects, evaluate safety, and determine dose and schedule prior to the start of Part 2.

[0262] 5.1.Treatment regimen The test consists of two parts.

[0263] Part 1: Single-arm, two-cohort, safety run-in period

[0264] Part 2: Open-label, randomized, two-arm efficacy and safety

[0265] Part 1: Single-arm safety run-in period

[0266] Part 1 was a single-arm, two-cohort, safety run-in phase aimed at establishing the safety of the combination of pramotamab, tafasitamab, and lenalidomide.

[0267] Part 1 will consist of a single-arm evaluation of the safety of the triple combination of tafasitamab + lenalidomide and pramotamab in at least 40 subjects in two cohorts with a minimum of 20 subjects per cohort: In cohort 1A, subjects will be treated with the triple combination at pramotamab dose level -1 (Table 2). After enrollment in cohort 1A is completed, enrollment in cohort 1B will begin. In cohort 1B, subjects will be treated with the triple combination at pramotamab dose level 1. The first safety assessment will be performed after all subjects in cohorts 1A and 1B have been treated until at least C4D28 or have discontinued treatment before C4D28 due to AE or disease progression. After the first safety assessment in both cohorts 1A and 1B, the pharmacologically optimal dose of pramotamab (dose level -1 or dose level 1) with an acceptable safety profile will be advanced to the randomized (part 2) portion of the study.

[0268] Treatment consists of a combination of pramotamab, tafasitamab, and lenalidomide administered in 28-day cycles, with two priming doses of tafasitamab prior to cycle 1. Pramotamab and tafasitamab may be administered until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or discontinuation for any other reason, whichever occurs first, but lenalidomide may only be administered for a total of 12 cycles. Tafasitamab and pramotamab should not be administered simultaneously. On days when both tafasitamab and pramotamab are administered, tafasitamab should be administered first, followed by pramotamab. It is recommended that infusions be at least 2 hours apart.

[0269] Part 2: Open-label, randomized

[0270] The open-label, randomized portion of the study (Part 2) will begin after the initial safety evaluation of at least 40 subjects in Part 1. Prior to the initiation of Part 2, the protocol will be amended with the dosing regimen selected from Part 1 to include justification to support the dosing / schedule proposed in Part 2.

[0271] In part 2, subjects will be randomized 1:1 to two treatment arms and stratified by baseline International Prognostic Index (IPI) risk score (3-5 vs. 0-2), number of prior lines of therapy (1 vs. ≥2), and primary refractory disease (yes vs. no). Enrollment of primary refractory disease will be limited to 36 of the 200 subjects. Part 2 will enroll approximately 200 subjects. The sample size for part 2 may be adjusted based on the results of part 1. Increasing enrollment beyond 200 will be done by protocol amendment before the start of the randomized portion. An Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) will review safety data from part 2 at meetings to be held after 50, 100, and 150 subjects have been randomized. The primary analysis of PFS will occur after 89 disease progression and death events. An interim analysis of OS will be performed at that time.

[0272] Part 2 is an efficacy cohort in which subjects are randomized to receive treatment in Arm A or Arm B as follows:

[0273] Group A:

[0274] Treatment consists of a combination of pramotamab, tafasitamab, and lenalidomide administered in 28-day cycles with two priming doses of tafasitamab prior to cycle 1. Pramotamab and tafasitamab may be administered until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or discontinuation for any other reason, whichever occurs first. Lenalidomide may be administered for up to a total of 12 cycles.

[0275] Group B:

[0276] Treatment consists of a combination of tafasitamab and lenalidomide administered in 28-day cycles with two priming doses of tafasitamab prior to cycle 1. Tafasitamab may be administered until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or discontinuation for any other reason, whichever occurs first. Lenalidomide may be administered for up to a total of 12 cycles.

[0277] The doses and schedules for Parts 1 and 2 are presented in Figure 3 and described in further detail below.

[0278] Primary endpoint

[0279] The primary endpoints of the study were safety, measured by the incidence of CRS and TEAEs, in part 1, and PFS, defined as the time from randomization to first documented disease progression or death, whichever occurred first, assessed by BIRC using the Lugano 2014 criteria, in part 2.

[0280] 5.2. Number of subjects Part 1 will enroll at least 40 subjects into two cohorts with a minimum of 20 subjects per cohort.

[0281] Approximately 200 subjects will be enrolled in Part 2. The sample size for Part 2 may be adjusted based on the results of Part 1. Any increase in enrollment beyond 200 will be made by protocol amendment prior to the start of the randomized portion. Primary refractory enrollment will be limited to 36 of the 200 subjects in Part 2.

[0282] Overall, the study plans to enroll approximately 240 subjects.

[0283] 5.3. Treatment allocation Treatment allocation in Part 1 and randomization in Part 2 will be performed via a third-party Randomization and Trial Supply Management (RTSM) / Interactive Response Technology (IRT) system.

[0284] Part 1: Single-arm safety run-in period

[0285] During the safety run-in period of Part 1, 40 subjects will be enrolled and treated with pramotamab and tafasitamab plus lenalidomide (i.e., single-arm, uncontrolled). Subjects will be considered enrolled if they sign informed consent, are deemed eligible, and receive a priming dose of tafasitamab on day -8.

[0286] Part 2: Open-label, randomized

[0287] In part 2, a total of 200 subjects will be randomized 1:1 to the pramotamab and tafasitamab plus lenalidomide groups and the tafasitamab plus lenalidomide group, stratified by baseline IPI risk score (3-5 vs. 0-2), number of prior lines of therapy (1 vs. ≥2), and primary refractory status (yes vs. no). Up to 36 primary refractory subjects may be enrolled. Subjects will be randomized only if they sign informed consent and are deemed eligible. Initiation of study treatment will occur within 72 hours of randomization. Study treatment will begin with a priming dose of tafasitamab on study day -8.

[0288] 5.4. Inclusion criteria Subjects selected for this study will be at least 18 years of age and have a histologically confirmed diagnosis of DLBCL not otherwise specified (including DLBCL arising from indolent lymphoma). The lymphoma will be relapsed or refractory and will have CD20 expression based on flow cytometry or immunohistochemical assessment. + and CD19 + was confirmed.

[0289] 5.5. Administration schedule and premedication Pramotamab administration schedule and premedication

[0290] Subjects in Part 1 and subjects randomized to Arm A in Part 2 will receive pramotamab IV at a constant infusion rate over a minimum of 2 hours (-5 minute window). In cycle 1, pramotamab will be administered once every 7 days (± 1 day) for a total of 4 doses, and starting in cycle 2, pramotamab will be administered every 2 weeks.

[0291] Subjects in Cohort 1A and Cohort 1B will receive pramotamab according to the doses and schedules in Table 2. [Table 4]

[0292] The dose and schedule of pramotamab in Part 2 will be determined in Part 1.

[0293] Adjustments to the infusion rate may be made to increase the length of infusion time based on the investigator's judgment of safety. Due to variability in pump accuracy, an infusion that ends within 5 minutes before the required 2 hours will not be considered a deviation.

[0294] On days when both pramotamab and tafasitamab are administered, pramotamab will be administered at least 2 hours after tafasitamab. All Part 1 subjects and subjects randomized to Arm A of Part 2 will be premedicated for pramotamab administration as shown in Table 3. [Table 5]

[0295] For subjects who have received four consecutive infusions at a stable dose and schedule and have been free of CRS or infusion reactions, premedication may be modified at the investigator's discretion.

[0296] If pramotamab is discontinued, if there is no disease progression, and if the subject is still benefiting from the study treatment, the subject may continue on the other study treatment(s).

[0297] Tafasitamab administration schedule and premedication

[0298] All subjects will receive tafasitamab. Priming doses will be given on days -8 and -4 of the 1-week lead-in period. During the first 3 cycles of the study, tafasitamab will be infused on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of each cycle, after which tafasitamab will be administered every other week (every 14 days) (infused on days 1 and 15 of each 28-day cycle, respectively, until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or discontinuation for any other reason, whichever occurs first) (Table 4). The first infusion of tafasitamab will be given at a rate of 70 mL / hour for the first 30 minutes. The rate will then be increased so that the infusion is given within 1.5 to 2.5 hours. All subsequent infusions should be given within 1.5 to 2 hours. On days when both tafasitamab and pramotamab are administered, tafasitamab will be administered before pramotamab. [Table 6]

[0299] Tafasitamab should be administered in accordance with the package insert (see, for example, MONJUVI PI, 2021) and by healthcare professionals who have immediate access to emergency equipment and appropriate medical assistance to manage infusion-related reactions.

[0300] All subjects will be premedicated for tafasitamab administration as shown in Table 5. [Table 7]

[0301] On study days when both tafasitamab and pramotamab are administered, a single dose of dexamethasone will be administered prior to the start of the tafasitamab infusion in cycle 1. If pramotamab is withheld and only tafasitamab is administered, premedication with prednisone or equivalent will only be required for the first 3 doses, thereafter if an infusion-related reaction is observed.

[0302] For subjects who do not experience an infusion-related reaction during the first three infusions, premedication is optional for subsequent infusions. If a subject experiences an infusion-related reaction, premedication will be administered prior to each subsequent infusion.

[0303] If tafasitamab is discontinued, if there is no disease progression, and if the subject is still benefiting from the study treatment, the subject may continue on the other study treatment(s).

[0304] Lenalidomide dosing scheme

[0305] All subjects will receive lenalidomide and will self-administer lenalidomide orally daily on days 1-21 of each cycle, starting at a dose of 25 mg. No more than 21 doses of lenalidomide will be administered per cycle. Investigators will follow the package insert or SmPC (see, e.g., REVLIMID PI, 2021; REVLIMID SmPC, 2022) for recommended medications and dose modifications for the prevention of venous thromboembolic events. Subjects will be encouraged to take lenalidomide at approximately the same time each day in the evening, regardless of whether food is consumed. Subjects will be instructed to swallow lenalidomide capsules whole with water and not to open, split, or chew the capsules. Lenalidomide treatment may be modified or discontinued in a dose-decreasing manner based on clinical and laboratory findings. Detailed dose modification guidelines for managing hematological and / or other toxicities are provided in the relevant sections of the protocol.

[0306] If lenalidomide is discontinued, if there is no disease progression, and if the subject is still benefiting from the study treatment, the subject may continue on the other study treatment(s).

[0307] 5.6. Study Drugs and Storage Pramotamab (XmAb13676)

[0308] Pramotamab (XmAb13676) is a humanized bsAb that binds to both CD3 and the tumor antigen CD20 to recruit cytotoxic T cells to kill CD20-positive tumor cells.

[0309] Pramotamab has been designed to maintain the full-length humanized monospecific antibody properties in a bsAb, allowing for the design of a stable molecule with a favorable in vivo half-life and the use of standard antibody production methods.

[0310] Pramotamab (XmAb13676) is in the format of Fab-scFv-Fc (scFv, single-chain variable fragment), i.e. a heterodimeric Fc-based format that can only bind monovalently to its bispecific antigen, in contrast to the bivalency of standard antibodies. The monovalency of CD3 was an important design constraint, as bivalent binding of CD3 results in T cell activation in the absence of CD20-expressing target cells. Pramotamab's Fc region has also been engineered to suppress its affinity for Fc gamma receptors (FcγR), which is critical for blocking T cell activation via cross-linking of pramotamab by FcγR-expressing cells. Xencor's antibody discovery program has demonstrated that several bsAbs based on this format exhibit high, but selective, activity against target cells in primate models.

[0311] IV solution stabilizer (IVSS) is a concentrated form of pramotamab (XmAb13676) buffer solution that also minimizes protein binding to administration equipment when pramotamab is administered at low concentrations.

[0312] Pramotamab (XmAb13676) drug product (DP) is a sterile liquid supplied in 5 mg vials. Each 2 mL disposable glass vial is filled with 1.0 mL of formulation containing 5.0 mg of pramotamab (XmAb13676) in 10 mM sodium succinate, 5% sucrose (weight to volume, w / v), and 0.01% (w / v) polysorbate-80, pH 5.5. Each product vial is intended to deliver 1.0 mL of drug solution. Dilution instructions for any alternate fill volumes required during testing are provided in the drug manual.

[0313] The IVSS is supplied in disposable glass vials. Each vial is filled with 10.0 mL of a solution containing 250 mM sodium succinate and 0.25% (w / v) polysorbate-80, pH 5.5. Each vial is intended to deliver 10.0 mL of IVSS.

[0314] Vials containing pramotamab and IVSS must be stored refrigerated at 2°C to 8°C in a properly controlled area with access only to the pharmacist, investigator, or duly designated personnel. Because pramotamab does not contain a preservative, opened vials of pramotamab must be used within 24 hours.

[0315] Tafasitamab-cxix (tafasitamab)

[0316] Tafasitamab (tafasitamab-cxix) is a CD19-directed cytolytic antibody, indicated in the United States for use in combination with lenalidomide for the treatment of adult patients with not otherwise specified (NOS) R / R DLBCL (including DLBCL arising from low-grade lymphomas) and adult patients who are not eligible for ASCT. Tafasitamab is also approved in the EU for use in combination with lenalidomide followed by tafasitamab monotherapy for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory DLBCL who are not eligible for ASCT. Tafasitamab is a humanized CD19-directed cytolytic monoclonal antibody that contains an IgG1 / 2 hybrid Fc domain with two amino acid substitutions to modify the Fc-mediated functions of the antibody. It is produced by recombinant DNA technology in mammalian cells (Chinese Hamster Ovary). The molecular weight of tafasitamab is approximately 150 kDa.

[0317] Tafasitamab-cxix for Injection is supplied as a 200 mg vial containing a preservative-free, white to slightly yellowish, sterile, lyophilized powder in a single-dose vial for IV use after reconstitution. After reconstitution with 5 mL of Sterile Water for Injection (USP), the resulting concentration is 40 mg / mL with a pH of 6.0. Each single-dose vial contains 200 mg of tafasitamab, citric acid monohydrate (3.7 mg), polysorbate 20 (1 mg), sodium citrate dihydrate (31.6 mg), and trehalose dihydrate (378.3 mg).

[0318] Vials containing tafasitamab should be stored in accordance with the package insert or SmPC (MONJUVI PI, 2021; MONJUVI smPC, 2021).

[0319] Lenalidomide

[0320] Lenalidomide, a thalidomide analogue, is an immunomodulatory agent (IMiD®) with antiangiogenic and antineoplastic properties. Lenalidomide is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with multiple myeloma, myelodysplastic syndromes, mantle cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, and marginal zone lymphoma (see REVLIMID PI, 2021 or REVLIMID SmPC, 2022).

[0321] Lenalidomide may be provided by the investigator or as an investigational drug / investigational medicinal product (REVLIMID or locally approved generic lenalidomide).

[0322] Lenalidomide is stored according to the REVLIMID or generic lenalidomide package label.

[0323] 5.7. Preparation and handling of study drugs Pramotamab (XmAb13676)

[0324] It should be noted that pramotamab exerts its pharmacodynamic effects in vivo at very low concentrations, and therefore each product vial must be extensively diluted prior to administration.

[0325] Pramotamab solutions are prepared under sterile conditions. Prior to administration, pramotamab is diluted to the required final concentration in one or more infusion bags containing 240 mL of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP, and 10.0 mL of IV solution stabilizer. A visual inspection should be performed on the vial containing the parenteral formulation prior to dilution. If particulate matter and / or discoloration is observed, the drug should not be administered and the sponsor should be notified. After dilution, the bag containing pramotamab (XmAb13676) should be gently inverted 2-3 times to mix the solution. The bag should not be shaken.

[0326] Pramotamab has previously been administered to humans in a Phase 1 clinical trial (XmAb13676-01). In the XmAb13676-01 study, CRS was frequently observed, particularly with dosing on Day 1 of Cycle 1. Either the principal investigator or co-investigator (MD) must be readily contactable during and for at least 24 hours after administration of pramotamab.

[0327] All subjects will be premedicated with dexamethasone 20 mg IV approximately 30-60 minutes prior to the start of the tafasitamab infusion in cycle 1. If the tafasitamab infusion is withheld for any reason during cycle 1, dexamethasone will be administered 1 hour prior to the start of pramotamab administration. After cycle 1, dexamethasone premedication is not required and is permitted at the investigator's discretion. (Cetirizine or other antihistamines may be used in place of diphenhydramine).

[0328] Pramotamab administration should be initiated as soon as possible after preparation of the dosing solution. If administration is delayed, pramotamab can be stored at room temperature for up to 4 hours or at 2°C to 8°C for up to 12 hours before injection.

[0329] Pramotamab should not be administered by IV injection or bolus.

[0330] Study medication will be administered as an open-label solution using a dedicated infusion set at a constant rate for a minimum of 2 hours (-5 minute window). During pramotamab administration, caution should be exercised for CRS or infusion reactions / anaphylaxis. Because CRS or allergic / infusion reactions may occur, emergency resuscitation equipment ("emergency cart") and medications including steroids and tocilizumab should be located near where subjects are receiving infusions. Additional support should be available and may include, but is not limited to, acetaminophen, antihistamines, corticosteroids, IV fluids, bronchodilators, epinephrine, vasopressors, and oxygen.

[0331] Tafasitamab

[0332] Tafasitamab should be prepared and administered in accordance with the package insert or SmPC (MONJUVI PI, 2021; MONJUVI smPC, 2021).

[0333] Lenalidomide

[0334] Lenalidomide will be provided as oral capsules that will be distributed to subjects at the study site.

[0335] Lenalidomide will be distributed to subjects to be taken orally in the evening according to the package insert or SmPC (REVLIMID PI, 2021; REVLIMID SmPC, 2022). Subjects will be provided with a diary to record the date and time of each dose of lenalidomide and for product accountability.

[0336] Subjects should be instructed to make up a missed dose of lenalidomide if it is within 12 hours of the usual dosing time and then take the next dose according to their usual schedule.

[0337] 5.8. Pharmacokinetic, Pharmacodynamic, and Biomarker Assessment Pharmacokinetic analysis, anti-drug antibodies, cytokines, and serum assessment of rituximab levels

[0338] Venous blood samples for serum analysis of pramotamab and tafasitamab PK, pramotamab and tafasitamab ADA, cytokines, and rituximab levels will be obtained according to the schedules listed in Tables 6 and 7. The remaining samples will be saved for additional testing of biomarkers related to pharmacodynamic activity, clinical response, or resistance to the study drug. In Table 6, pramotamab PK, cytokines, and ADA, as well as ECG testing will be performed for subjects in Part 1 and subjects randomized to Arm A in Part 2. All times are relative to pramotamab infusion. On days when tafasitamab and pramotamab are administered, pre-dose samples will be taken and ECG testing will be performed prior to the start of tafasitamab infusion. In Table 7, tafasitamab anti-drug antibody and pharmacokinetic testing will be performed in all subjects. All times are relative to tafasitamab infusion. [Table 8-1] [Table 8-2] [Table 9]

[0339] Pharmacodynamics and biomarker evaluation

[0340] Peripheral Blood Evaluation

[0341] Blood samples will be collected to examine the pharmacodynamic effects of pramotamab, tafasitamab, and lenalidomide on leukocyte frequency and markers of T cell and / or leukocyte function, including but not limited to checkpoint molecules, markers of proliferation and T cell activation, and markers of T cell exhaustion. Circulating T cell, B cell, and NK cell frequencies will also be monitored. Additional blood samples will be stored in PAXGENE RNA tubes for potential exploratory testing of leukocyte function and pharmacodynamic effects by RNA sequencing and transcriptome gene and pathway analysis. Baseline and pharmacodynamic markers in the periphery will be evaluated for correlation with incidence of CRS and AEs, along with clinical response and tolerability. Evaluation of CRS 24 hours after each dose will include monitoring of serum cytokines and flow cytometric assessment of changes in the amount and activation state of T cells in the peripheral blood.

[0342] Blood samples will be collected at screening and during treatment for measurement of ctDNA. Treatment-related DNA sequencing will be used to track ctDNA levels and mutations to investigate ctDNA as a measure of MRD and as a marker of clinical response. Blood samples may also be used to assess genome-wide germline DNA mutations to interpret tumor-specific DNA mutations.

[0343] Detailed instructions for processing and shipping of peripheral blood samples are provided in the laboratory manual. See Table 9 (Evaluation Schedule) for sampling schedule. Unscheduled samples may be collected and sent to a designated central laboratory at the investigator's discretion. The remaining peripheral blood mononuclear cells, plasma samples, and serum samples will be stored at the designated central laboratory and may be used for evaluation of additional future exploratory biomarkers related to pharmacodynamic activity, clinical response, or resistance to the study drug.

[0344] Tumor biopsy

[0345] Archival tissue-archived blocks (preferred) or unstained slides are requested from lymph node biopsies to confirm the diagnosis of DLBCL, determine cell of origin status, and perform genomic mutation analysis. Cell of origin assay (COO), germinal center B cell (GCB), or activated B cell type (ABC) origin is determined using transcriptional analysis, NANOSTRING LYMPHC2X, or other gene expression methods. Immunohistochemistry analysis is performed using relevant markers with the Hans algorithm (Yoon, 2017).

[0346] Archival tissue from diagnostic tumor masses or lymph nodes must be confirmed as available at the time of study entry and will be collected and sent to a designated central laboratory within 8 weeks of first dose of study drug or randomization. See Table 9 (Evaluation Schedule) for sampling schedule. If archival tissue is not available, a fresh tumor biopsy specimen at baseline will be requested.

[0347] Tumor biopsies at baseline and during treatment: Baseline biopsy: Fresh tumor biopsy specimens (excision or core needle biopsy specimens) are recommended as they allow for unbiased analysis of tumor status, as opposed to archival biopsy specimens that may not reflect the effects of treatment before the start of the study. Therefore, if the subject consents and has palpable diseased lymph nodes (e.g., superficial lymphadenopathy), a pre-treatment baseline biopsy is required, allowing for a low-risk procedure for tissue sampling. Excision or core needle biopsy are acceptable, but fine needle aspiration is not.

[0348] Tumor Biopsies at Baseline and On-Treatment: On-Treatment Biopsies: On-treatment biopsies are required in subjects with palpable lymphadenopathy. On-treatment biopsy specimens are obtained at week 4 of treatment (after administration of C1D22 but prior to administration of C2D1). In responding subjects, additional biopsies are recommended at the time of progression to define the molecular and cellular basis of progression and to definitively rule out loss of CD19 or CD20 expression as a mechanism of acquired resistance.

[0349] Tumor tissue from archival, pre-treatment, on-treatment, and progression biopsies will be processed to allow for analyses including, but not limited to, (1) DNA sequencing to identify acquired genetic mutations in tumor cells, (2) RNA analysis of the tumor and tumor microenvironment, and (3) immunostaining of tumors for expression of CD19 and CD20, as well as inflammatory cells, including T cells, in the microenvironment.

[0350] Biopsy specimens will be taken at baseline and during treatment and sent to a central laboratory. See Table 8 for sampling schedule. [Table 10-1] [Table 10-2] [Table 10-3] [Table 10-4] [Table 10-5] [Table 10-6] [Table 10-7] [Table 10-8]

[0351] Following study-specified tumor biopsy analyses, remaining archival and fresh biopsy samples will be stored at a designated central laboratory for evaluation of additional future exploratory biomarkers related to pharmacodynamic activity, clinical response, or resistance to the study drug.

[0352] 5.9.Efficacy Assessment Efficacy evaluation

[0353] Response assessment will be determined as shown in Table 9. [Table 11-1] [Table 11-2] [Table 11-3]

[0354] Primary Measured Lesions: Select up to six of the largest primary lymph nodes, nodal masses, or extranodal lesions clearly measurable in two dimensions. Lymph nodes should be selected from different parts of the body and should include the mediastinum and retroperitoneum, if present. Non-lymph node lesions include those in parenchymal organs (liver, spleen, kidneys, lungs), gastrointestinal tract, skin, and those visible on palpation. Recently biopsied lesions should not be used as primary measured lesions.

[0355] Non-measurable lesions: Any lesion not selected as a measurable lesion, major and precisely assessable lesion should be considered a non-measurable lesion. These sites include precisely assessable lesions as well as any lymph nodes, nodal masses, or extranodal lesions that are not selected as major or measurable or that do not meet the definition of measurable but are considered abnormal, including any site of suspicious disease that is difficult to quantitatively track by measurement, including pleural effusions, ascites, bone lesions, meningeal lesions, abdominal masses, and other lesions that cannot be identified or tracked by imaging studies.

[0356] The investigators and BIRC will assess response to study drug at each efficacy time point. The following outcomes will be reported:

[0357] Progression-free survival: defined as the time from randomization to the first documented disease progression or death, whichever occurs first. The investigators and BIRC will adjudicate disease progression events in all randomized subjects. PFS assessed by the BIRC is the primary endpoint of Part 2 of the study. For sample size determination, treatment with the triplet combination resulted in a median PFS of 12 months (with tafasitamab + lenalidomide treatment (Duell et al., 2013) and 12 months with tafasitamab + lenalidomide treatment (Duell et al., 2013). Haematologica.2021;106(9):2417-26) to 23.5 months (under treatment with triple combination (pramotamab + tafasitamab + lenalidomide)), corresponding to a hazard ratio (HR) of 0.51 for all randomized subjects (assuming 90% of subjects have centrally pathologically confirmed DLBCL). The log-rank test has 90% power with a sample size of 200 (93 events) to maintain a type I error of 0.025 (one-sided). Sample size calculations assumed a loss to follow-up rate of 1.5% / month Subjects will be randomized 1:1 and stratified by baseline IPI risk score (3-5 vs. 0-2), number of prior lines of therapy (1 vs. ≥2), and primary refractory status (yes vs. no). Up to 36 primary refractory subjects may be enrolled for a sample size of 200. Enrollment of 200 subjects is estimated to require 27 months (with a minimum follow-up period of 6 months). The primary efficacy analysis will be performed when 93 PFS events are observed per independent review. In addition to the final OS analysis, an interim analysis of OS will be performed using a group sequential design at the time of the final PFS analysis.

[0358] Duration of response: defined as the time from first response (CR or PR) to progression or death from any cause in subjects who achieved CR or PR and in subjects with CR. DOR is derived using disease progression as determined by BIRC in subjects who achieved a response (CR or PR).

[0359] Overall survival: defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause. All randomized subjects will be followed for survival for up to 5 years. Overall survival of the randomized population will be evaluated (Part 2). The one-sided alpha level for studying OS is 0.025. Assume that the median OS of Arm B in Part 2 is 34 months, and Arm A in Part 2 has a 40% improvement from Arm B (i.e., median OS = 56.6 months, HR = 0.60). Furthermore, assuming that enrollment is complete at 27 months, the minimum follow-up period is 24 months, and the OS censoring rate (dropout rate) is approximately 1% per month, the study will result in a statistically significant outcome with 60% power. An interim analysis of OS is planned when 65% of the information (death events) is available. Superiority analyses will be performed during the interim and final analyses.

[0360] Time to Treatment Failure: Defined as the time from randomization to discontinuation of all study treatment for any reason, including disease progression, treatment toxicity, and death. Time to treatment failure will use disease progression as assessed by the investigator and BIRC.

[0361] In addition, adverse events, including the incidence of cytokine release syndrome (CRS), and other safety parameters will be evaluated.

[0362] 5.10. Toxicity Management Toxicities of the triple regimen (pramotamab, tafasitamab, and lenalidomide) may be identified during the study. Management of known toxicities, such as CRS, infusion-related reactions, hematologic toxicity, and tumor lysis syndrome, are outlined below.

[0363] Cytokine release syndrome: ASTCT defines CRS as a hyperphysiological response that occurs after the administration of any immunotherapy, resulting in the activation or binding of endogenous or infused T cells and / or other immune effector cells. Symptoms may be progressive, must include fever at onset, and may include hypotension, capillary leak syndrome (hypoxia), and end-organ dysfunction (Lee DW, Santomasso BD, Locke FL, et al. ASTCT consensus grading for cytokine release syndrome and neurologic toxicity associated with immune effector cells. Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2019; 25(4)625-38).

[0364] CRS can present with a variety of symptoms ranging from mild flu-like symptoms to severe, life-threatening manifestations of inflammatory reactions. Mild symptoms of CRS include fever, fatigue, headache, rash, joint pain, and muscle pain. More severe cases are characterized by hypotension and hyperthermia and can progress to an uncontrolled systemic inflammatory reaction with circulatory shock requiring vasopressors, vascular leakage, disseminated intravascular coagulation, and multiple organ failure (Shimabukuro-Vornhagen A, Godel P,Subklewe M,et al.Cytokine release syndrome.J Immunother Cancer.2018;6(1):56). CRS is more likely to occur after the first dose of pramotamab than subsequent doses, with a somewhat later onset than hypersensitivity reactions, and is more likely to be associated with hepatic and neurological complications. Pramotamab-associated CRS symptoms observed in phase 1 trials include: Aphasia or word-finding difficulties Joint pain Confusion / altered mental status / delirium Increased serum creatinine ·sweating ·dizziness ·Difficulty breathing Fatigue (asthenia, lethargy, malaise) Fever Gait disturbance / dysmetria ·headache ·Hypotension / Hypertension Hypoxia Muscle pain Nausea / vomiting Stiffness / chills Tachycardia ·Tachypnea Seizures Hypertransaminases / hyperbilirubinemia Tremor

[0365] CRS toxicity is defined using the ASTCT CRS consensus grading classification (Lee DW, Santomasso BD, Locke FL, et al. ASTCT consensus grading for cytokine release syndrome and neurologic toxicity associated with immune effector cells. Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2019;25(4)625-38). For relevant definitions, see Table 10. [Table 12-1] [Table 12-2]

[0366] Safety Run-in and Part 2, Group A (pramotamab, tafasitamab, and lenalidomide): Pramotamab can cause CRS. CRS has not been observed in clinical trials of tafasitamab and lenalidomide. However, lenalidomide may enhance CRS when combined with pramotamab due to its potential to activate T cells. Furthermore, to avoid overlap between pramotamab-induced CRS and tafasitamab-induced infusion-related reactions, pramotamab should always be administered after tafasitamab when administered on the same day. For dose modifications of lenalidomide and pramotamab in cases of CRS, see Section 5.11.

[0367] Part 2, Arm B (tafasitamab and lenalidomide): If CRS is observed with tafasitamab, treatment guidelines provided for pramotamab should be followed.

[0368] Cytokine release syndrome vs. allergic / hypersensitivity / infusion-related reactions: CRS is mechanistically distinct from allergic / hypersensitivity / infusion-related reactions (Brennan FR, Morton LD, Spindeldreher S, et al. Safety and immunotoxicity assessment of immunomodulatory monoclonal antibodies. MAbs. 2010;2(3):233-55), but some symptoms are common to both AEs, and both have been reported to occur with therapeutic antibodies. It is less clear how cytokine release is triggered, but it is likely that cytokine release is related to immune cell activation. In this case, CD3-expressing lymphocytes may be the primary effectors of CRS.

[0369] Use of Tocilizumab for Cytokine Release Syndrome: Tocilizumab (Acterma®) is a therapeutic antibody that inhibits the binding of interleukin-6 (IL-6) to the IL-6 receptor. Tocilizumab can be used to reduce the severity and possibly mortality of severe CRS, and early administration may be useful in improving outcomes. Tocilizumab (dose 8 mg / kg) should be readily available as needed, and repeat doses of tocilizumab may be required if signs and symptoms persist or recur after initial treatment. In some cases, another treatment (instead of tocilizumab) may be used for CRS.

[0370] Fluid Management: CRS may be associated with myocardial dysfunction, pulmonary edema, or capillary leak syndrome (Shimabukuro-Vornhagen A, Godel P, Subklewe M, et al. Cytokine release syndrome. J Immunother Cancer. 2018;6(1):56). Subjects should be monitored for weight gain and intravenous (IV) fluid administration in acute cases. Guidelines for administering fluids are as follows: If a subject experiences a 10% or greater gain in body weight over the past 2 weeks associated with new or significantly increased bilateral lower extremity edema, dosing should be delayed until this finding has been evaluated and treated as necessary. In cases of acute hypotension, IV fluid boluses should be limited to 500-1000 mL of normal saline or equivalent. If there is no adequate response to fluids, treatment with tocilizumab (and vasopressors if necessary) should be considered rather than additional fluid boluses.

[0371] ASTCT CRS Consensus Cytokine Release Syndrome Treatment Guidelines by Grade: CRS treatment guidelines are listed below by grade.

[0372] Grade 1 Symptomatic management is recommended. For rash, pruritus, or other signs and symptoms of a hypersensitivity (allergic) reaction, administer acetaminophen 650 mg orally as an antipyretic or analgesic and / or diphenhydramine 25-50 mg intravenously or orally as clinically indicated. · Vital signs should be measured no more than every 15 minutes or as clinically indicated. · Unscheduled blood samples will be taken for cytokine analysis during the event and approximately 4 hours later (unless scheduled cytokine monitoring is already in progress on the same visit day). Monitor subjects for deterioration. If the severity of the event increases to a higher grade, stop the infusion and administer steroids.

[0373] Grade 2 Hypotension responsive to fluids without the need for vasopressors, or mild respiratory symptoms treatable with low-flow oxygen, are signs of grade 2 toxicity. Elderly subjects or those with significant comorbidities may be at higher risk of decompensation in this setting. Discontinue the infusion and / or administer an additional dose of dexamethasone in doses of 10 to 20 mg intravenously and / or administer acetaminophen 650 mg orally and / or administer diphenhydramine 25 to 50 mg intravenously or orally to treat signs and symptoms. Once symptoms have resolved, resume the infusion at 50% of the baseline rate. If after 1 hour the subject's symptoms have not recurred and vital signs are stable, the infusion rate may be increased, as tolerated, every 30 minutes to reach the baseline rate. If clinically indicated, vital signs should be measured no more than every 15 minutes. The frequency of vital sign assessments during the infusion may be reduced to every 30 minutes for subjects who are able to tolerate an increase in the infusion rate back to the baseline rate and who are able to maintain normotension for 30 minutes after the rate increase. · Unscheduled blood samples will be taken for cytokine analysis during the event and approximately 4 hours later (unless scheduled cytokine monitoring is already in progress on the same visit day). Monitor subjects for deterioration. If the severity of the event increases to a higher grade, stop the infusion and administer appropriate treatment, following guidelines for Grade 3 and 4 reactions, if necessary. Elderly subjects or those with significant comorbidities may be at higher risk for decompensation in this setting. If a reaction occurs or progresses rapidly in these vulnerable subjects, IV treatment with tocilizumab 8 mg / kg over 1 hour with or without additional IV treatment with dexamethasone 10 to 20 mg (or equivalent) may be considered.

[0374] Grades 3 and 4 Stop the infusion and remove the infusion tubing from the subject. Administer an additional 10 mg of dexamethasone intravenously. · Implement aggressive supportive care immediately, using vasopressors, fluids, oxygen, epinephrine or bronchodilators, ventilatory support, antipyretics, and analgesics as indicated. Tocilizumab 8 mg / kg IV over 1 hour (Hallek M, Cheson BD, Catovsky D, et al. CLL guidelines for diagnosis, indications for treatment, response assessment, and supportive management of CLL. Blood. 2018;131(25):2745-60) is recommended in CRS (due to high risk of progression and permanent organ dysfunction). Hospitalization for observation is often indicated in intensive care units, as initial improvement may be followed by rapid decompensation. For subjects with Grade 3 CRS or infusion reactions, rechallenge may be performed upon resolution as described in Section 5.11 and Table 14. Subjects with recurrent Grade 3 or any Grade 4 reaction should not receive further pramotamab treatment but will continue to be followed per protocol (i.e., followed for long-term survival). · Unscheduled blood samples will be taken for cytokine analysis during the event and approximately 4 hours later (unless scheduled cytokine monitoring is already in progress on the same visit day). Unscheduled samples will be collected for Anti-Drug Antibody (ADA) testing as close as possible to the onset of the event, upon resolution of the event, and approximately 28 days after the event (unless cytokine monitoring scheduled for the same visit date is already in progress). · Medical professionals and / or medical surveillance personnel should be contacted.

[0375] Neurotoxicity: In addition to CRS, another toxicity observed after CAR-T cell therapy and CD3 bispecific antibodies is neurotoxicity. Immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) may manifest as delirium, encephalopathy, aphasia, lethargy, impaired concentration, agitation, tremors, seizures, and rarely cerebral edema (Lee DW, Santomasso BD, Locke FL, et al. ASTCT consensus grading for cytokine release syndrome and neurologic toxicity associated with immune effector cells. Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2019; 25(4) 625-38). Neurotoxicity is treated separately from CRS due to its timing and response to treatment.

[0376] Neurological symptoms may occur during or after CRS symptoms, but rarely before CRS symptoms. Early symptoms of ICANS are tremor, dysgraphia, mild speech difficulties (especially naming objects), attention problems, apraxia, and mild lethargy. Headache is a nonspecific symptom that often occurs during fever or after chemotherapy in patients without other neurological dysfunction. Thus, headache alone is not a suitable marker of ICANS. Expressive aphasia, on the other hand, appears to be a very specific symptom of ICANS.

[0377] A consensus grading scheme, a slightly modified version of the CARTOX-10 screening tool (incorporating the immune effector cell-associated encephalopathy (ICE) score, a key component of the Mini-Mental State Examination), is used for ICANS grading. (Table 11). The 10-point ICE screening tool is useful for assessing encephalopathy in subjects. However, ICANS grading requires assessment of the 10-point ICE score as well as evaluation of other neurological domains such as level of consciousness, motor symptoms, seizures, and signs of elevated intracranial pressure / cerebral edema with or without encephalopathy. The ASTCT ICANS toxicity grading system is shown in Table 12. This grading scale is used to assess neurotoxicity rather than the CTCAE version 5.0. [Table 13] [Table 14-1] [Table 14-2]

[0378] High levels of IL-6 may directly mediate neurotoxicity. Tocilizumab, a human anti-IL-6 monoclonal antibody, may reverse this neurotoxicity, but it is not expected to cross the blood-brain barrier and its efficacy in this setting has not been confirmed. Corticosteroids may be the first-line therapy, and tocilizumab may be considered if corticosteroids are ineffective.

[0379] Clinical Management of Neurotoxicity: Subjects are monitored for signs and symptoms of the event (including the use of mental status and neurological examinations). If neurotoxicity becomes evident, an unscheduled blood sample for cytokine analysis will be drawn at that time and repeated 4 hours later (unless scheduled cytokine monitoring is already in progress for the same visit). If neurotoxicity is grade 4, discontinue pramotamab. ·For grade 3 neurotoxicity, withhold drug until toxicity resolves to grade 1 (mild) or less and remains at grade 1 or less for at least 3 days before resuming therapy. Resume therapy at 75% of previous dose. If grade ≥ 2 toxicity does not recur, escalate dose to full dose at next dose. Permanently discontinue drug if grade ≥ 2 toxicity recurs at 75% dose or if less than grade 2 toxicity takes > 7 days to resolve. Permanently discontinue pramotamab if grade 3 neurotoxicity persists > 7 days. For severe neurological symptoms, administer an additional 10 mg of dexamethasone intravenously, repeating every 12 hours if symptoms do not rapidly abate. · In cases of recurrent seizures, anticonvulsant therapy may be necessary.

[0380] Allergic / Hypersensitivity / Infusion-Related Reactions: Infusion-related reactions can occur with tafasitamab and pramotamab. Allergic reactions are often caused by a type 1 hypersensitivity mechanism via immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated release of histamine and prostaglandins, but can also occur through direct interactions with mast cells and basophils. However, infusion-related reactions (including severe and fatal reactions) are not uncommon with monoclonal antibody therapeutics and tend to occur most frequently during the first few infusions.

[0381] Signs and symptoms usually develop during or shortly after drug infusion in hypersensitivity reactions, are likely to occur after several doses of the drug, and are primarily related to the release of histamine.Typical signs and symptoms include rash / hives, flushing, itching, fever, dyspnea, cough, and hypotension, but may also include the following: Joint pain Bronchospasm Confusion / altered mental status / delirium ·dizziness Fatigue (asthenia, lethargy, malaise) Hallucinations ·headache High blood pressure Muscle pain Nausea / vomiting Stiffness / chills ·sweating Tachycardia

[0382] Allergic / hypersensitivity / infusion-related reactions will be managed according to institutional practices and guidelines. Allergic / hypersensitivity reactions will be defined according to the NCI-CTCAE, version 5.0 (NCI-CTCAE, 2017) definition of allergic reactions.

[0383] Safety Induction and Part 2, Arm A (pramotamab, tafasitamab, and lenalidomide): Infusion-related reactions may occur with pramotamab and tafasitamab. To mitigate overlapping toxicities with pramotamab, on a given treatment day, tafasitamab should be administered first and the interval between the end of the tafasitamab infusion and the start of the pramotamab infusion should be a minimum of 2 hours. If a Grade 1 infusion reaction occurs with tafasitamab, pramotamab will be delayed until resolution of all symptoms of the reaction. Depending on the timing of resolution of all symptoms, pramotamab administration the next day may be necessary.

[0384] Part 2, Arm B (tafasitamab and lenalidomide): Infusion-related reactions may occur with tafasitamab and lenalidomide. Toxicity Management instructions provided in the tafasitamab prescribing information may be followed. See section 5.11 for dose modifications.

[0385] Hematological toxicity: Hematological toxicity, particularly decreases in absolute neutrophil count (ANC) and platelet counts, have been observed in clinical trials of tafasitamab and lenalidomide. Decreases in platelets and ANC may be observed with pramotamab (see Table 13). [Table 15]

[0386] Concomitant use of products may exacerbate these grade or duration reductions. Blood counts should be closely monitored and institutional guidelines followed for treatment of neutropenia and thrombocytopenia. Treatment may include the use of growth factors and administration of whole blood / blood product transfusions. Management may also include delaying administration of study medication until counts return to at least Grade 2 levels. See Section 5.11 for any dose modifications of study medication.

[0387] Safety Run-in and Part 2, Group A (pramotamab, tafasitamab, and lenalidomide): Hematologic toxicities, specifically decreases in ANC and platelet counts, may occur in clinical trials of tafasitamab and lenalidomide. Decreases in platelets and ANC may also occur with pramotamab. Concomitant use of products may exacerbate these decreases in grade or duration. Monitor blood counts closely and follow institutional guidelines for treatment of neutropenia and thrombocytopenia, which may include transfusion of growth factors and whole blood / blood products. Management may also include delaying administration of study drug until counts return to at least Grade 2 levels. See Section 5.11 for any dose modifications of study drug.

[0388] Part 2, Arm B (tafasitamab and lenalidomide): Hematologic toxicities may occur with tafasitamab and lenalidomide. Toxicity management instructions provided in the tafasitamab prescribing information should be followed. See Section 5.11 for any dose modifications of study drug.

[0389] Tumor lysis syndrome: Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) is a rare but serious and life-threatening condition caused by the rapid release of tumor cell contents after lysis. The resulting metabolic imbalance may cause acute renal failure and / or other life-threatening conditions. Subjects with high tumor burden, hyperproliferative disease, and / or certain underlying diseases, such as renal disease, are at high risk of TLS.

[0390] Safety Induction and Part 2, Arm A (pramotamab, tafasitamab, and lenalidomide): It is unclear whether treatment with pramotamab, tafasitamab, and lenalidomide can cause TLS in R / R DLBCL. A phase 1 pramotamab monotherapy study in CD20-expressing hematologic malignancies reported that 4 of 96 subjects (4.2%) developed TLS of any grade, of which only 2 of 80 R / R NHL subjects (2.5%) experienced TLS. Importantly, no serious or fatal events of TLS were reported with pramotamab monotherapy in R / R DLBCL. Similarly, no events of TLS were reported in a phase 2 open-label, single-arm tafasitamab + lenalidomide study in R / R DLBCL (L-MIND). However, fatal cases of TLS have been reported with other indications and combinations of lenalidomide. All subjects will be assessed for risk of TLS according to institutional practice, based on laboratory parameters and tumor burden, prior to initiation of study drug.

[0391] Tumor Lysis Syndrome Prophylaxis, Monitoring, and Treatment: Prior to initiation of treatment, prophylaxis should be administered to subjects at high risk for TLS. Hospitalization may be considered for subjects considered at high risk for TLS and / or with creatinine clearance <80 mL / min. Allopurinol (or other xanthine oxidase inhibitors) should be initiated at least 48 hours prior to C1D1 in subjects considered at moderate to high risk for TLS. Rasburicase is indicated for elevated uric acid levels and monitoring for TLS. During study treatment, all subjects will require appropriate laboratory testing, including uric acid, potassium, phosphorus, calcium, and creatinine, prior to study drug administration. Laboratory results should be assessed in real time. IV fluids should be added if the subject is unable to take adequate oral fluids.

[0392] If a subject experiences laboratory changes or symptoms suggestive of TLS, treatment with pramotamab, tafasitamab, and lenalidomide should be interrupted. Study treatment will be held until TLS has resolved. If moderate or high risk of TLS remains after resolution, additional precautions and / or continued or reduced dose interruption of pramotamab, tafasitamab, or lenalidomide may be considered.

[0393] Part 2, Arm B (tafasitamab and lenalidomide): Prophylaxis, monitoring, and treatment of TLS should follow the guidelines disclosed above under "Tumor lysis syndrome prophylaxis, monitoring, and treatment."

[0394] 5.11. Dose modification guidelines Subjects experiencing significant toxicity will be treated with standard medical interventions as necessary (e.g., the use of filgrastim to treat neutropenia and / or acetaminophen for fever). Standard treatment practices can be used for infusion reaction / cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity management.

[0395] In general, subjects may be required to discontinue pramotamab or tafasitamab treatment if >14 days of missed doses and / or 2 consecutive doses are missed due to Grade 2 or greater toxicity (this applies to weekly and Q2W dosing). Subjects may resume study drug after missing 2 or more consecutive doses of pramotamab or tafasitamab if it is determined that the benefits outweigh the risks and the toxicity (if applicable) is controllable with the concomitant medication or by other means. Delays of >14 days and / or 2 consecutive doses require approval from the medical monitor.

[0396] During weekly dosing of pramotamab and / or tafasitamab, a subject dose withheld for 7 days or more should be considered a missed dose. During Q2W dosing of pramotamab and / or tafasitamab, a subject dose withheld for 14 days or more should be considered a missed dose. Subject doses administered outside of the time window or delayed due to safety concerns, including AEs, are not considered protocol deviations.

[0397] Pramotamab may be resumed after multiple cycles of prolonged dosing delays due to reasons other than toxicity (e.g., comorbidities, pseudoprogression, or delayed response). Resumption of initial treatment may be tolerated on an individual basis if it is deemed to best benefit the subject. As a safety precaution, the dose may be reduced to the priming dose for re-titration. Study assessments (including those from local and / or central laboratories) are collected, for example, according to the schedule of assessments shown in Table 14.

[0398] For potentially overlapping toxicities (e.g., CRS, infusion reactions, hematologic toxicities), detailed dose modifications by grade are provided in Table 14 below. [Table 16-1] [Table 16-2] [Table 16-3] [Table 16-4] [Table 16-5] [Table 16-6] [Table 16-7] [Table 16-8]

[0399] 5.12.Results Subjects treated with the combination of pramotamab, tafasitamab, and lenalidomide are expected to have improved outcomes compared to subjects treated with tafasitamab and lenalidomide alone.

[0400] Baseline DLBCL disease assessment: Prior to study initiation (17 days prior to study initiation), a PET-CT scan (5-point scale test) was performed on the subjects, yielding a grade or score of 5 (Table 16). At 61 days after study initiation, the PET-CT scan showed a reduction in score from 5 to 2 in the same subjects (Table 17). A PET-CT scan grade of 2 was also observed at the measurement 117 days after study initiation (Table 17). From 177 days after study initiation until the end of treatment, the subjects had a reduction in PET-CT scan score to 1 (Table 18). Results showed that the subjects had a metabolic complete response at the end of treatment (and also after cycle 2, after cycle 4, after cycle 6, and / or after cycle 8 of the study).
