A Randomized Phase II Study of Subcutaneous Mosunetuzumab in Combination With Polatuzumab Vedotin Compared With Rituximab Plus Polatuzumab Vedotin in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Large B‐Cell Lymphoma

American Journal of Hematology, Volume 101, Issue 9, Page 2177-2189, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Mosunetuzumab plus polatuzumab vedotin has shown promising activity versus rituximab plus polatuzumab vedotin (R‐Pola) in patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) large B‐cell lymphoma (LBCL; NCT03671018). We present results from the Phase II randomized cohort, evaluating subcutaneous mosunetuzumab plus polatuzumab vedotin (Mosun‐Pola), with ...

First‐line treatment with epcoritamab in combination with bendamustine plus rituximab induces sustained remissions beyond 3 years in patients with follicular lymphoma

HemaSphere, Volume 10, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract First‐line (1L) bendamustine plus rituximab (BR) leads to high response rates in follicular lymphoma (FL), but maintaining durable remissions remains challenging. We report the 3‐year follow‐up from arm 3 of the phase 1b/2 EPCORE NHL‐2 trial (NCT04663347) of epcoritamab, a subcutaneously administered CD3×CD20 bispecific antibody, combined with
