E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
Primary Objective and Endpoint: • To evaluate the efficacy of polatuzumab vedotin plus BR with respect to progression free survival (PFS) To evaluate the efficacy of the combination of polatuzumab vedotin plus BR in patients with R/R MCL after failure of Bruton tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (ibrutinib or acalabrutinib) as measured by PFS. PFS will be measured from study treatment start until the first documented disease progression or relapse, or death from any cause, whichever occurs earlier.

|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
Secondary Objectives and Endpoints: • To evaluate the efficacy of polatuzumab vedotin plus BR with respect to secondary efficacy endpoints measured by: PET-defined objective response rate (ORR, complete or partial remissions) and complete remission (CR) rate using Modified Lugano 2014 Response Criteria (PET-CT criteria) at the time of final response assessment as determined by investigator. Duration of response (DoR) measured as time from achievement of objective response by PET-CT or CT until disease relapse / progression as determined by investigator. Event free survival (EFS) as determined by the investigator. Overall survival (OS) measured from the study treatment start until death from any cause. Safety Objective: • To assess the safety and tolerability of the combination of polatuzumab vedotin with BR when administered to patients with R/R MCL

E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
Patients must meet the following criteria for study entry: • Signed written Informed Consent Form • Adult patients with relapsed or refractory MCL after failure of BTK inhibitor-containing therapy (e.g. ibrutinib, acalabrutinib, zanubrutinib) • Patients previously treated with bendamustine are eligible for the study treatment, in the case they had achieved objective response (CR or PR) and the last dose of bendamustine was administered ≥ 1 year before the estimated study treatment initiation date (C1D1) • Tumor tissue at the lymphoma relapse after failure of BTK inhibitor.

These patients must be willing to undergo regular DNA testing and appropriate antiviral therapy as indicated. • Positive test results for hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody serology testing Patients positive for HCV antibody are eligible only if polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is negative for HCV RNA. • Known history of HIV seropositive status • Patients with a history of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy • Pregnancy or lactation or intending to become pregnant during study • CNS lymphoma In patients with clinical signs attributable to CNS lymphoma, CT scan (MRI also acceptable) of the head and examination of cerebrospinal fluid will be required prior to study treatment initiation • Vaccination with live or attenuated vaccines 30 days before initiation of study treatment • Known hypersensitivity to Polatuzumab Vedotin, Rituximab or bendamustine, or their excipients • Clinically significant immunosuppression

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
• To evaluate the efficacy of polatuzumab vedotin plus BR with respect to progression free survival (PFS) To evaluate the efficacy of the combination of polatuzumab vedotin plus BR in patients with R/R MCL after failure of Bruton tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (ibrutinib or acalabrutinib) as measured by PFS. PFS will be measured from study treatment start until the first documented disease progression or relapse, or death from any cause, whichever occurs earlier.
|
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Interim PET-CT should be performed in between C2D15, C3D1 and at the End of treatment and then during follow up every 3 months during the year 1 of the follow up, and every 6 months during the year 2 of the follow up, or until study end or at any time that progression is suspected via clinical response assessment.

|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
To evaluate the efficacy of polatuzumab vedotin plus BR with respect to secondary efficacy endpoints: To evaluate the efficacy of the combination of polatuzumab vedotin plus BR in patients with R/R MCL after failure of Bruton tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (ibrutinib or acalabrutinib) as measured by: PET-defined objective response rate (ORR, complete or partial remissions) and complete remission (CR) rate using Modified Lugano 2014 Response Criteria (PET-CT criteria) (Appendix 4) at the time of final response assessment as determined by investigator. Duration of response (DoR) measured as time from achievement of objective response by PET-CT or CT until disease relapse / progression as determined by investigator. Event free survival (EFS) as determined by the investigator. EFS will be measured from study treatment start until disease relapse / progression, initiation of a new therapy without documented progression, premature termination of the study or death because of any cause Overall survival (OS) measured from the study treatment start until death from any cause. Safety Objective: • To assess the safety and tolerability of the combination of polatuzumab vedotin with BR when administered to patients with R/R MCL Safety will be evaluated through the monitoring of adverse events (AEs), including serious adverse events (SAEs), measurement of protocol-specified safety laboratory assessments and vital signs. Incidence, nature, and severity of adverse events, with severity determined through use of NCI CTCAE v5.0. Incidence and nature of study drug discontinuation, dose reduction, and dose delay due to adverse events.
