E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To evaluate clinical benefit in terms of PFS, as assessed by an IRF, for GA101 when used in combination with bendamustine compared with bendamustine alone in patients with indolent NHL refractory to prior rituximab-containing therapy |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
•To compare PFS as assessed by the investigator
•To compare OS between study arms
•To evaluate in each study arm and compare between study arms the following: overall response rate and CRR at the Study Treatment Completion/Early Study Treatment Termination Visit; best ORR achieved during treatment or within 12 months of the start of treatment; disease-free survival in CR patients; duration of response in patients with CR and PR
•To compare event-free survival between the two study arms
•To evaluate and compare the safety profiles of patients treated with the combination of GA101 + bendamustine and bendamustine alone
•To characterize the pharmacokinetics of GA101 in combination with bendamustine and evaluate for drug-drug interactions by comparing the pharmacokinetics of the combination with the pharmacokinetics of bendamustine alone
•To analyze pharmacoeconomics (medical resource utilization) in both arms of the study
•To assess patient-reported outcomes in both treatment arms |
