A Phase I/II Study of the Tumor-targeting Human L19-IL2 Monoclonal Antibody-cytokine Fusion Protein in Combination With Rituximab in Relapsed or Refractory Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL)

Phase I - Dose definition: A prospective, open-label, multi-center Phase I dose escalation study in which cohorts of 3-6 patients will receive escalating doses of L19-IL2 in combination with a fixed dose of Rituximab (375 mg/m2). Phase II - Activity Evaluation: Open-label, multi-center, prospective study during which 14 enrolled patients will receive a fixed dose of Rituximab (375 mg/m2) in combination with L19-IL2 at the RD defined during the Phase I part of the study. The study is designed to establish whether L19-IL2, administered in combination with Rituximab is well tolerated and can achieve objective responses and clinical benefit to patients with relapsed or refractory DLBCL.
