A Multicentric, Open-Label, Single Arm Study of Obinutuzumab Short Duration Infusion (SDI) in Patients With Previously Untreated Advanced Follicular Lymphoma

This open-label, single arm study will evaluate the safety of obinutuzumab administered as a
short duration infusion (SDI; target 90-minute infusion) during cycle 2 and from cycle 2
onwards in combination with chemotherapy in participants with previously untreated advanced
follicular lymphoma (FL). The study has two phases: in the first phase, participants will
receive the first cycle of obinutuzumab-based chemotherapy (G-chemo) induction therapy as
usual with the first three infusions of obinutuzumab (1000 mg) administered at the regular
infusion rate on Day 1, 8, and 15 of cycle 1. Phase 2 starts when participants who do not
experience any Grade ≥ 3 infusion related reactions during the first cycle receive their
first obintuzumab infusion given at the faster infusion rate in Cycle 2. For Cycle 2, Day 1
and all other following infusions (including maintenance), obinutuzumab will be administered
at a faster infusion of 90-minute SDI, as long as the participant does not experience any
Grade ≥ 3 infusion related reactions. The investigator is free to choose the chemotherapy for
each participant (bendamustine, CHOP [cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine,
prednisone/prednisolone/methylprednisolone], or CVP [cyclophosphamide, vincristine, and
prednisone/prednisolone/methylprednisolone]). The total number of cycles of G-chemo induction
therapy and the cycles length depends on the chemotherapy chosen for each participant.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Patients with previously untreated Stage III or IV FL or Stage II bulky disease
scheduled to receive obinutuzumab plus chemotherapy due to at least one of the
following criteria: a.) Bulky disease, defined as a nodal or extranodal (except
spleen) mass

≥ 7 cm in the greatest diameter b.) Local symptoms or compromise of normal organ
function due to progressive nodal disease or extranodal tumor mass c.) Presence of B
symptoms (fever [> 38ºC], drenching night sweats, or unintentional weight loss of >
10% of normal body weight over a period of 6 months or less) d.) Presence of
symptomatic extranodal disease (e.g., pleural effusions, peritoneal ascites) e.)
Cytopenias due to underlying lymphoma (i.e., absolute neutrophil count < 1.0 × 109/L,
hemoglobin < 10 g/dL, and/or platelet count < 100 × 109/L) f.) Involvement of ≥ 3
nodal sites, each with a diameter of ≥ 3 cm g.) Symptomatic splenic enlargement

- Histologically documented CD-20-positive FL, as determined by the local laboratory

- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0−2

- Adequate hematologic function (unless abnormalities are related to FL)

- Life expectancy of ≥ 12 months

- For women who are not postmenopausal (≥ 12 consecutive months of non-therapy-induced
amenorrhea) or surgically sterile (absence of ovaries and/or uterus): agreement to
remain abstinent (refrain from heterosexual intercourse) or use contraceptive methods
that result in a failure rate of < 1% per year during the treatment period and for at
least 18 months after the last dose of obinutuzumab, for at least 3 months after the
last dose of bendamustine or according to institutional guidelines for CHOP or CVP
chemotherapy, whichever is longer

- For men: agreement to remain abstinent (refrain from heterosexual intercourse) or use
contraceptive measures and agreement to refrain from donating sperm

Exclusion Criteria:

- Relapsed / refractory FL

- Prior treatment for FL with chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or immunotherapy

- Grade IIIb FL

- Histological evidence of transformation of FL into high-grade B-cell NHL

- Treatment with systemic immunosuppressive medications, including, but not limited to,
prednisone/prednisolone/methylprednisolone, azathioprine, methotrexate, thalidomide,
and anti-tumor necrosis factor agents within 2 weeks prior to Day 1 of Cycle 1

- History of solid organ transplantation

- History of anti-CD20 antibody therapy

- History of severe allergic or anaphylactic reaction to humanized, chimeric, or murine
monoclonal antibodies

- Known sensitivity or allergy to murine products

- Known hypersensitivity to biopharmaceuticals produced in Chinese hamster ovary cells
or any of the study drugs

- Active bacterial, viral, fungal, or other infection or any major episode of infection
requiring treatment with IV antibiotics within 4 weeks of Day 1 of Cycle 1

- Positive test results for chronic HBV infection (defined as positive HBsAg serology)

- Positive test results for hepatitis C (hepatitis C virus [HCV] antibody serology
testing)

- Known history of HIV positive status

- History of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML)

- Vaccination with a live virus vaccine within 28 days prior to Day 1 of Cycle 1 or
anticipation that such a live, attenuated vaccine will be required during the study

- History of prior other malignancy with the exception of: a. Curatively treated
carcinoma in situ of the cervix, good-prognosis ductal carcinoma in situ of the
breast, basal- or squamous-cell skin cancer, Stage I melanoma, or low-grade,
early-stage localized prostate cancer b. Any previously treated malignancy that has
been in remission without treatment for ≥ 2 years prior to enrollment

- Evidence of any significant, uncontrolled concomitant disease that could affect
compliance with the protocol or interpretation of results, including significant
cardiovascular disease (such as New York Heart Association Class III or IV cardiac
disease, myocardial infarction within the previous 6 months, unstable arrhythmia, or
unstable angina) or significant pulmonary disease (such as obstructive pulmonary
disease or history of bronchospasm)

- Major surgical procedure other than for diagnosis within 28 days prior to Day 1 of
Cycle 1, Day 1, or anticipation of a major surgical procedure during the course of the
study

- Any of the following abnormal laboratory values:

1. Creatinine > 1.5 × the upper limit of normal (ULN) (unless creatinine clearance
normal) or creatinine clearance < 40 mL/min

2. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) > 2.5 × ULN

3. Total bilirubin ≥ 1.5 × the ULN: Patients with documented Gilbert disease may be
enrolled if total bilirubin is ≤ 3.0 × the ULN.

4. International normalized ratio (INR) > 1.5 in the absence of therapeutic
anticoagulation

5. Partial thromboplastin time or activated partial thromboplastin time > 1.5 × ULN
in the absence of a lupus anticoagulant

- For patients who will be receiving CHOP: left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) <
50% by multigated acquisition (MUGA) scan or echocardiogram

- Pregnant or lactating, or intending to become pregnant during the study

- Any investigational therapy within 28 days prior to the start of Cycle 1
