Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Tazmetostat in combination with rituximab

Arm Description

Tazemetostat 800 mg BID is administered daily starting on Cycle 1 Day 1 (C1D1). Tazemetostat will be administered from C1D1 to the end of Cycle 24, for 24 months of therapy or until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. Rituximab will be administered by either subcutaneous injection or IV infusion according to the regional product prescribing information, labeling and institutional guidelines. Rituximab will be administered at a dose of 375 mg/m2 on Day 1, 8, 15, and 22 of Cycle 1, and then on Day 1 of Cycles 3 through 6, accounting for an additional 4 doses, i.e., a total of 8 doses of rituximab in 6 cycles.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Objective Response Rate
Assess the objective response rate (ORR; complete response + partial response [CR + PR]), according to 2014 Lugano Classification, of Tazemetostat, in combination with Rituximab in subjects with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma and with wild-type (WT) EZH2 mutation status.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events
Evaluate safety of the combination of Tazemetostat and Rituximab by assessing incidence of adverse events (AEs)/serious adverse events (SAEs), events leading to discontinuation of study treatment or death, and change of vital signs, lab results, and physical exam findings from baseline. Outcome measured according to National Cancer (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0.
Progression Free Survival
Estimate the median progression-free survival (PFS), per 2014 Lugano Classification, of Tazemetostat in combination with Rituximab at 2 years in subjects with R/R follicular lymphoma and WT EZH2 mutation status, and in the pooled group regardless of mutation status.
Duration of Response
Estimate the duration of response (DOR).) per 2014 Lugano Classification.
Response Rate in a subset of subjects with mutant (MT) EZH2
Assess the ORR, according to 2014 Lugano Classification, in the pooled group regardless of mutation status and in a subset of subjects with MT EZH2.
Response rate in rituximab refractory subjects
Assess the ORR, according to 2014 Lugano Classification, in rituximab refractory subjects.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of combining the EZH2 inhibitor tazemetostat with rituximab in R/R FL subjects previously treated with at least 2 standard prior systemic treatment regimens where at least 1 anti-CD20-based regimen was used.
Detailed Description
This is a phase 2, multicenter, open-label study of oral tazemetostat in combination with rituximab in subjects with relapsed or refractory (R/R) follicular lymphoma (FL). This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of tazemetostat in combination with rituximab in subjects previously treated with at least 2 standard prior systemic treatment regimens where at least 1 anti-CD20-based regimen was used, and used and features early futility stopping to maintain subject safety.
