E.1.3

Condition being studied is a rare disease

E.2 Objective of the trial

E.2.1

Main objective of the trial

To evaluate the efficacy in term of progression-free survival after randomization (PFSrand) of a subcutaneous (SC) formulation of rituximab in patients who responded to Induction and initial 2 years maintenance therapy (Maintenance I), and were randomized to either prolonged rituximab maintenance until progression (Maintenance II) or observation.

E.2.2

Secondary objectives of the trial

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of SC rituximab during Induction, initial 2-year maintenance (Maintenance I) and randomized treatment period (Maintenance II). Efficacy will be evaluated in terms of Event-Free Survival (EFS), Time to Next Lymphoma Treatment (TNLT), Overall survival (OS), Overall Response Rate (ORR), Partial Response (PR) to Complete Response (CR) conversion rate, and PFS measured from the first Induction dose of rituximab (PFSregist). Safety assessments will include frequency of adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), and infusion/injection-related reactions (IRRs) and immunoglobulin (Ig) quantification.

E.2.3

Trial contains a sub-study

Principal inclusion criteria

• Age ≥ 18 years.
• Histologically confirmed, CD20+ follicular NHL Grade 1, 2 or 3a, or other CD20+ indolent NHL (Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia or lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma, marginal zone lymphoma) according to the WHO classification system, other not further classified low malignant lymphoma by immunohistochemistry.
• Patients must have received and must have relapsed or been refractory to one or more lines of adequate induction therapy prior to enrolment, including at least one line consisting of immunotherapy and/or chemotherapy.
• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤ 2.

E.4

Principal exclusion criteria

• Transformation to high-grade lymphoma.
• Patients with aggressive lymphoma (e.g. mantle cell lymphoma).
• Presence or history of central nervous system (CNS) lymphomatous disease (e.g., CNS lymphoma or lymphomatous meningitis).
• Other malignancy within 5 years prior to enrolment, with the following exceptions (as long as curatively treated): carcinoma in situ of the cervix, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, or basal cell skin cancer. Cervical carcinoma stage 1B or less, breast cancer in situ, or localized prostate cancer stage T1c or less may be considered, provided that the patient was treated with curative intent and has been relapse- and metastasis-free for at least 2 years prior to enrolment.
• Inadequate hepatic or renal function prior to the first rituximab induction dose.
• Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.

E.5 End points

E.5.1

Primary end point(s)

The primary efficacy endpoint of the study is PFSrand. It is defined as the time from day of randomization to maintenance phase II to the first documented disease progression or death, whichever occurs first.

E.5.1.1

Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point

Day 1 every 8 weeks [56 ± 7 days] until PD

E.5.2

Secondary end point(s)

Progression free survival (PFS) measured from the day of first rituximab Induction dose (PFSregist), Event-free survival (EFS), Time to next lymphoma treatment (TNLT), Overall survival (OS), Overall Response Rate (ORR) and PR to CR conversion rate at the end of Induction and end of Maintenance I.
