7029 Background: Mosun, a CD20xCD3 T-cell engaging bispecific antibody, is approved for relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma after ≥2 prior lines of therapy. We report an interim analysis and PROs with Mosun SC in elderly/unfit patients with previously untreated DLBCL. Methods: MorningSun (NCT05207670) is a Phase 2, basket study of Mosun SC in patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. In the DLBCL cohort, eligible patients (aged ≥80 years, or 65–79 years and ineligible for chemoimmunotherapy) received outpatient Mosun SC: Day (D) 1 (5 mg), D8 (45 mg) and D15 (45 mg) of Cycle (C) 1, then 45 mg on D1 for up to 17 21-day cycles. Primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 24 months. Other endpoints included overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), complete response (CR) rate, change from baseline (CfB) in lymphoma symptoms as assessed by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Lymphoma subscale (FACT-Lym LYMS; higher scores indicate improvement, a ≥3-point increase is considered clinically meaningful) and safety. Results: Forty-nine patients were enrolled, primarily from community sites (n=34). Median age was 83 years (range: 71–101). International Prognostic Index was 3–5 in 53.1% patients and 18.4% of patients had bulky disease. As of February 10, 2025, the median duration of follow-up was 12.5 months (range: 1.4–30.8). PFS and OS rates at 12 months were 71.3% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 54.8–82.7) and 74.7% (95% CI: 58.5–85.4), respectively. ORR was 73.5% and CR rate was 59.2%. Completion rates for FACT-Lym LYMS were ≥95% at baseline and remained ≥87% at each subsequent timepoint. Patients reported improvement in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) over time, demonstrated by increased mean CfB (standard deviation [SD]) in FACT-Lym LYMS scores: C4D1, 5.1 (9.8); C9D1, 5.6 (11.8); C17D1, 9.8 (11.4). Clinically meaningful improvements in lymphoma symptoms were observed in 53.1% (95% CI: 38.3–67.5) of patients. The most common any-grade adverse event (AE) was injection site reaction (53.1%; all Grade [Gr] 1/2). Gr 3/4 AEs were reported in 65.3% of patients and 8.2% experienced a Gr 5 AE (no Gr 5 AEs were Mosun related, per investigator assessment). Serious AEs occurred in 42.9% of patients. Infection AEs occurred in 49.0% of patients (Gr 1: 4.1%; Gr 2: 28.6%; Gr 3: 16.3%) and resolved in 91.7%. Cytokine release syndrome occurred in 12.2% of patients (Gr 1: 10.2%; Gr 2: 2.0%; all resolved). Updated data with around one additional year of follow-up will be presented. Conclusions: Mosun SC showed promising efficacy with manageable safety in elderly/unfit patients with previously untreated DLBCL in an outpatient setting. Clinically meaningful improvements in lymphoma symptoms suggest that Mosun SC improves aspects of HRQoL in this population. Clinical trial information: NCT05207670 .

Abstract Background: Mosunetuzumab, a CD20xCD3 bispecific antibody, can be administered in the outpatient setting for a fixed duration. Mosunetuzumab by intravenous (IV) administration is FDA- and EMA-approved in relapsed/refractory (R/R) FL after ≥2 prior lines of therapy. Interim results from the Phase II MorningSun study (NCT05207670) demonstrated promising efficacy and manageable safety of mosunetuzumab SC in pts with previously untreated HTB FL (Flinn et al. ASCO 2025). We report 12-month follow-up efficacy and safety data of mosunetuzumab SC in pts with previously untreated HTB FL in the MorningSun study, including pts who received optional maintenance therapy. Methods: Pts with previously untreated HTB FL, per Groupe D'Etude des Lymphomes Folliculaires criteria, and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0–2 were enrolled, primarily from United States (US) community sites. Mosunetuzumab SC was administered as step-up dosing in Cycle (C)1 (Day [D]1, 5mg; D8, 45mg; D15, 45mg) followed by 45mg on D1 of each 21-day cycle, for up to 17 cycles (1 year). Pts with a partial or complete metabolic response (CMR) after C17 could receive optional mosunetuzumab maintenance treatment (45mg every 8 weeks for up to 1 year). The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 1 year. Key secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), duration of response (DOR), duration of complete response (DOCR) and safety. Exploratory analysis of ctDNA levels was performed using the AOA-NHL assay. Results: As of February 10, 2025, 103 pts were enrolled (n=82 pts from community sites, n=21 pts from academic sites). Overall, the median age was 65 years (range: 24–86), 51.5% of pts were female and most pts had Ann Arbor stage III/IV disease (91.3%) and a FLIPI score ≥2 (78.6%). In total, 69 pts completed initial treatment (17 cycles), 33 discontinued (primarily due to progressive disease [PD; n=18] and adverse events [AEs; n=5]), and 1 pt was continuing treatment. After 17 cycles, 68 pts were eligible for maintenance treatment, of whom 46 received maintenance, and 15 were continuing maintenance treatment at the time of data cut-off. Median duration of follow-up was 22.3 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 20.9–24.1). The 12-month PFS rate was 85.5% (95% CI: 76.2–91.3). The ORR was 87.4% (95% CI: 79.4–93.1); 64.1% of pts had a CMR. The 12-month OS rate was 91.9% (95% CI: 84.5–95.9); the 12-month DOR and DOCR rates were 89.6% (95% CI: 80.2–94.7) and 91.1% (95% CI: 79.4–96.2), respectively. Of the 46 pts who received maintenance, no pts experienced PD, and 1 pt died (reason unknown). Of the 22 pts who were eligible but did not receive maintenance, 1 pt had PD. The most common AEs (≥30%) were injection-site reaction (67.0%), fatigue (44.7%), cytokine release syndrome ([CRS] 34.0%), headache (32.0%), and nausea (32.0%). Grade (Gr) ≥3 AEs and serious AEs were reported in 47.6% and 35.9% of pts, respectively. Five pts experienced Gr 5 AEs: COVID-19 pneumonia (n=2) and cardiogenic shock, unexplained death, pneumonia (n=1 each). Infections occurred in 77.7% of pts and were predominantly Gr 1/2 (Gr 1: 10.7%; Gr 2: 47.6%; Gr 3: 12.6%; Gr 4: 3.9%), with the most common infection being COVID-19 (24.3%). Of 3 (2.9%) Gr 5 infections reported, 1 occurred during initial treatment (COVID-19), 1 during maintenance (pneumonia), and 1 occurred 2.8 months after completion of treatment (COVID-19). AEs were reported in 80.4% of pts in the maintenance phase, mostly Gr 1/2 events. No CRS events occurred during maintenance treatment. Infections were reported in 45.7% of pts during maintenance, with the majority being Gr 1/2 events (37.0%), and were similar types of infection as during initial therapy. ctDNA levels were assessed in a subset of pts who achieved a CMR; 86.4% (19/22) of pts were minimal residual disease (MRD) negative (p-value cut-off 0.005).Conclusions: Longer follow-up of mosunetuzumab SC with optional maintenance treatment continues to demonstrate promising PFS and OS rates, and a manageable safety profile in pts with previously untreated HTB FL. Exploratory analysis of ctDNA in a subset of CMR pts showed MRD negativity in 86.4%, thus supporting fixed treatment duration of mosunetuzumab SC. Overall, these data support the outpatient administration of mosunetuzumab SC in US community practices and further evaluation of mosunetuzumab-based treatment in first-line HTB FL.

Abstract Background: Mosunetuzumab (Mosun) is an off-the-shelf, CD20xCD3 T-cell engaging bispecific antibody that redirects T cells to eliminate B cells, including those that cause malignant disease. Mosun is FDA- and EMA-approved for relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma (FL) after ≥2 prior lines of therapy as a fixed-duration intravenous treatment, and can be given in an outpatient setting without mandatory hospitalization. Initial Phase I/II data with Mosun monotherapy have shown notable efficacy and manageable safety in patients with previously untreated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL; NCT03677154; Olszewski et al. ASH 2022). The Phase II MorningSun study is the first to assess the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous (SC) Mosun monotherapy in elderly/unfit patients with previously untreated DLBCL; we report an interim analysis for this study. Methods: MorningSun (NCT05207670) is an open-label, multicenter, Phase II, basket study evaluating the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of Mosun SC monotherapy in patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. In the DLBCL cohort, eligible patients aged ≥80 years or aged 65–79 and considered ineligible for chemoimmunotherapy (CIT) were enrolled, primarily in US community sites. Hospitalization was not mandatory. Step-up doses of Mosun SC were administered on Day (D) 1 (5mg), D8 (45mg) and D15 (45mg) of Cycle 1, followed by 45mg on D1 of 21-day cycles, for up to 17 cycles or until unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint in this cohort was progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 24 months after first study treatment. Secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), complete response (CR) rate, time to response (TTR), duration of response (DOR), duration of complete response (DOCR), overall survival (OS), and safety. An exploratory circulating tumor DNA analysis was performed using an AOA-NHL assay. Results: Overall,49 patients were enrolled, the majority at community sites (community, n=34; academic, n=15). Thirty-six patients had DLBCL, 6 had high-grade [Gr] B-cell lymphoma, 2 had T-cell/histiocyte-rich large B-cell lymphoma, and 1 had Gr 3B FL (histology missing/other lymphoma, n=4). Median age was 82.5 years (range: 71–101); 63.3% and 20.4% of patients had an ECOG performance status of 1 and 2, respectively; 40.8% had Ann Arbor stage IV disease; 51.0% had extranodal involvement; 18.4% had bulky disease; and 53.1% had an IPI score of 3–5. At the clinical cut-off date of February 10, 2025, 23 (46.9%) patients had discontinued treatment, mainly due to progressive disease (n=12, 24.5%) or an adverse event (AE; n=5, 10.2%); the median duration of follow-up was 12.5 months (range: 1.4–30.8) and the median number of cycles received was 14 (range: 1–17). The PFS rate at 12 months was 68.8% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 52.1–80.6) and OS rate at 12 months was 77.2% (95% CI: 61.1–87.3). The ORR and CR rates were 73.5% and 59.2%, respectively. Median TTR was 2.7 (range: 2.5–6.1) months. DOR and DOCR rates at 12 months were 84.6% (95% CI: 66.8–93.3) and 95.0% (95% CI: 69.5–99.3), respectively. The most common AE (any grade) was injection site reaction (n=25, 51.0%), which was mostly Gr 1 (n=24, 49.0%). Gr 3/4 AEs occurred in 65.3% (n=32) of patients, most commonly infections (16.3% [n=8]) and decreased neutrophil count (10.2% [n=5]); serious AEs occurred in 42.9% (n=21) of patients. Four patients experienced Gr 5 AEs (congestive cardiac failure, volvulus, unexplained death and intracranial hemorrhage, n=1 each); none were related to Mosun per investigator assessment. Infections occurred in 46.9% (n=23) of patients (Gr 1/2, 30.6% [n=15]; Gr 3, 16.3% [n=8]); no Gr 4/5 infections were observed. No immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome events occurred. Cytokine release syndrome was reported in 12.2% (n=6) of patients, with 10.2% (n=5) Gr 1 and 2.0% (n=1) Gr 2 events, all of which resolved. In evaluable patients with a CR (n=16), 68.8% (n=11) of patients were minimal residual disease negative (p-value cut-off 0.005).Conclusions: There remains an unmet need for effective chemotherapy-free options in previously untreated elderly and CIT-ineligible patients with DLBCL. Interim data from MorningSun demonstrate that fixed-duration Mosun SC monotherapy is active in these patients, with promising efficacy and a manageable safety profile, with predominantly mild-to-moderate AEs, allowing for outpatient administration in the community practice setting.

Abstract Background: There remains an opportunity for new therapies to improve long-term outcomes for patients with low-tumor burden follicular lymphoma (FL). Mosunetuzumab is an off-the-shelf CD20xCD3 bispecific antibody, approved as an intravenous therapy for patients with relapsed/refractory FL after ≥2 lines of systemic therapy. Mosunetuzumab can be administered in the outpatient setting as a fixed-duration regimen. In an open-label, multicenter, Phase II study conducted mainly across US community sites (MorningSun; NCT05207670), mosunetuzumab administered subcutaneously (SC) induced high response rates with a manageable safety profile in patients with previously untreated low-tumor burden FL (Burke et al. ASH 2024). Here we present updated efficacy and safety data for mosunetuzumab SC in patients with previously untreated, low-tumor burden FL. Methods: Patients had untreated Grade 1 or 2 low-tumor burden FL per Groupe d'Etude des Lymphomes Folliculaires criteria, Ann Arbor stage III/IV disease, and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) of 0–2. Mosunetuzumab SC was administered with step-up dosing in Cycle 1 (Day [D]1, 5mg; D8, 45mg; D15, 45mg), then 45mg on D1 of each 21-day cycle. Hospitalization was not mandatory. Patients with a complete metabolic response after 8 cycles could complete therapy and patients with a partial metabolic response or stable disease continued treatment for up to 17 cycles. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) at 24 months. Key secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), time to response (TTR), overall survival (OS), duration of response (DOR), duration of complete response (DOCR), and safety. Exploratory analyses assessed pharmacodynamic changes in B-cell subsets. Here, we report interim data. Results: As of February 10, 2025 (clinical cut-off date), 101 patients were enrolled from US community (n=56) and academic (n=45) centers; 52 patients had completed treatment, 21 had discontinued (mainly due to adverse events [AEs; n=6] and progressive disease [n=5]), and 28 were ongoing on treatment. Median age was 65 years (range: 34–82). Most patients had an ECOG PS of 0 (81.2%) or 1 (18.8%) and 43 patients (42.6%) had extranodal involvement. Median duration of follow-up was 13.8 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 11.5–16.9) and median number of cycles received was 10 (range: 3–17). The ORR was 98.0% (95% CI: 93.0–99.8) and the complete response rate was 89.1% (95% CI: 81.3–94.4). Median TTR was 2.8 months (range: 1.4–8.3). Landmark DOR and DOCR rates at 12 months were 91.8% (95% CI: 81.5–96.5) and 95.7% (95% CI: 82.6–99.0), respectively. The 12-month PFS and OS rates were 92.0% (95% CI: 83.8‒96.1) and 99.0% (95% CI: 93.2‒99.9), respectively. The most common AE was injection-site reaction (ISR, 81.2%; Grade 1, 74.3%; Grade 2, 5.9%; Grade 3, 1.0%). Grade 3/4 AEs were reported in 51.5% of patients; the most common (≥10%) events were cytopenias (36.6%) and infections (11.9%). Cytokine release syndrome (CRS) was reported in 48.5% of patients (Grade 1, 40.6%; Grade 2, 7.9%). Overall,infections occurred in 63.4% of patients (Grade 1, 7.9%; Grade 2, 42.6%; Grade 3, 11.9%; Grade 5, 1.0%) with the most common (≥10%) being upper respiratory tract infection (21.8%), COVID-19 (17.8%), sinusitis (13.9%), and pneumonia (11.9%). At the time of data cut-off, ISR, CRS, and infection AEs were resolved at rates of 98.2%, 100%, and 89.0%, respectively. Two patients had a Grade 5 AE (sepsis, n=1; unknown cause, n=1).No immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome events were reported. B-cell depletion was observed following the first dose of mosunetuzumab, with subsequent B-cell recovery observed within six months of treatment completion. Conclusions: Fixed-duration mosunetuzumab SC demonstrates high efficacy rates with deep and sustained responses in patients with previously untreated, low-tumor burden FL. The manageable safety profile supports ease of outpatient administration without mandatory hospitalization, including in community oncology practices. Additionally, exploratory analyses demonstrating B-cell recovery after treatment completion also substantiate the use of mosunetuzumab SC as a fixed-duration regimen. These data support further evaluation of mosunetuzumab SC in patients with previously untreated, low-tumor burden FL.

Abstract Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) poses a challenge in hematology given its varied symptoms, and the complex interplay between disease and treatment effects on health-related quality of life (HRQoL). The phase 3 POLARIX study demonstrated superior progression-free survival and a similar safety profile with polatuzumab vedotin plus rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone (Pola-R-CHP) vs R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) in patients with previously untreated DLBCL. Here, we evaluate HRQoL through patient-reported outcome (PRO) instruments to fully characterize the patient experience in the POLARIX study. Changes from baseline in HRQoL, lymphoma symptoms, and gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms were assessed, as well as incidence and severity of common symptoms by PROs vs clinician-reported adverse events (AEs). Baseline characteristics of PRO-evaluable patients (N = 874) were consistent. Comparison between PROs and clinician-reported AEs revealed a notable discordance; patients generally reported a higher incidence of symptoms than clinicians, emphasizing the need for patient-centric tools to accurately capture the patient experience. Both treatments exhibited rapid and sustained improvements in HRQoL and lymphoma symptoms, with the most substantial improvements seen in global health status/QoL, lymphoma symptoms, fatigue, role, emotional, and social functioning. GI symptoms (diarrhea, constipation, nausea, and vomiting) were generally similar between treatment arms and returned to baseline levels after treatment completion. These HRQoL data underscore the complementarity of PROs, as an adjunct to clinician-reported AEs, in evaluating the efficacy and tolerability of new treatments, including Pola-R-CHP, which may represent a new benchmark for patient-reported HRQoL in previously untreated DLBCL. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as NCT03274492.

7014 Background: Mosun is a CD20xCD3 bispecific antibody that can be administered in the outpatient setting for a fixed duration. Intravenous Mosun is approved for the treatment of relapsed/refractory FL after ≥2 prior lines of therapy. Mosun SC achieved high response rates with manageable safety in patients with 3L+ FL in a pivotal Phase II study (Bartlett et al. ASH 2024). We report the efficacy and safety of Mosun SC in patients with previously untreated high-tumor burden FL in the Phase II MorningSun study (NCT05207670). Methods: Patients with previously untreated high-tumor burden FL, per GELF criteria, were enrolled into this cohort. Mosun SC was administered with step-up dosing in Cycle (C)1 (Day [D]1, 5mg; D8, 45mg; D15, 45mg) then 45mg on D1 for up to 17 cycles (1 year; 21-day cycles). Patients with a partial or complete metabolic response (CMR) after C17 could receive additional Mosun maintenance therapy (45mg every 8 weeks for up to 1 year). Corticosteroid prophylaxis to reduce the risk of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) was mandatory in C1–2 and optional thereafter. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 24 months. Key secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), time to response (TTR), and safety. Results: As of May 29, 2024, 102 patients were enrolled; 55 patients had completed initial treatment (17 cycles), 31 had discontinued (most commonly due to progressive disease [n=19] and adverse events [AEs; n=4]), and 16 were ongoing initial treatment. Forty-two patients received maintenance treatment, and this was ongoing in 38 patients. Median age was 65 years (range: 24–86); 52.0% of patients were female. Most patients had Ann Arbor stage III/IV (91.2%) and a FLIPI score ≥2 (78.4%). Median duration of follow-up was 13.9 months. The 12-month PFS rate was 82.8% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 73.0–89.3). ORR was 87.3%; 60.8% of patients had a CMR. Among the 89 patients with a response, the median TTR was 2.7 months (range: 1.2–5.8). The most common AEs (≥30%) were injection-site reaction (57.8%), fatigue (42.2%), CRS (34.3%), headache (31.4%), and nausea (30.4%). Grade ≥3 AEs and serious AEs (SAEs) were reported in 44.1% and 29.4% of patients, respectively. CRS events were all Grade 1/2 and SAE of CRS occurred in 10.8% of patients (Table); all events resolved. Conclusions: Mosun SC demonstrated promising efficacy in patients with previously untreated high-tumor burden FL. The manageable safety profile, including rate of CRS, supports the administration of fixed duration Mosun SC in an outpatient setting. Additional data, including cytokine profiling and T/B/NK dynamics, will be presented. Clinical trial information: NCT05207670 .

TPS7587 Background: Covalent (c) Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKi) have transformed the management of MCL, but these agents are not curative. cBTKi share pharmacologic liabilities (e.g., low oral bioavailability, short half-life), which collectively may lead to suboptimal BTK target coverage especially in rapidly proliferating tumors with high BTK protein turnover such as MCL, which can manifest as acquired resistance to BTKi. Pirtobrutinib, a highly selective, non-covalent (reversible) BTKi, has favorable oral pharmacology that enables continuous BTK inhibition throughout the dosing interval regardless of intrinsic rate of BTK turnover. In the phase 1/2 BRUIN study, pirtobrutinib demonstrated promising durable overall response rates and was well tolerated in patients (pts) with MCL regardless of prior therapy (including cBTKi), number of prior lines of therapy, or reason for prior cBTKi discontinuation. Pirtobrutinib was approved by the FDA in January 2023 for R/R MCL after 2 prior lines of therapy including a BTKi. The objective of this study is to establish whether pirtobrutinib is superior to investigator’s choice of cBTKi in pts with previously treated, BTKi naïve MCL. Methods: BRUIN MCL-321 (NCT04662255) is a randomized, open-label, global phase 3 study comparing pirtobrutinib monotherapy versus investigator’s choice of cBTKi monotherapy (ibrutinib, acalabrutinib, or zanubrutinib) in pts with previously treated, BTKi naïve MCL. Approximately 500 pts will be randomized 1:1 and stratified by sMIPI risk (low/intermediate vs high), comparator BTKi (ibrutinib vs acalabrutinib/zanubrutinib), and number of prior lines of therapy (1 vs ≥ 2). Enrollment for this study is ongoing. Adults with a diagnosis of MCL who have received ≥ 1 prior line of systemic therapy for MCL and are BTKi naïve are eligible. Pts must have measurable disease by imaging per Lugano criteria and have progressed on or relapsed following the most recent line of therapy. A history of current or prior CNS involvement, significant cardiovascular disease, stroke or intracranial hemorrhage within 6 months of randomization, and autologous stem cell transplant (SCT), allogeneic SCT or chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy within 60 days of randomization are key exclusion criteria. Progression-free survival (PFS) per Lugano criteria assessed by an independent review committee is the primary endpoint. Overall response rate, duration of response, investigator-assessed PFS per Lugano criteria, overall survival, event-free survival, time to treatment failure, time to next treatment, PFS2 (time from randomization to disease progression on next line of treatment or death from any cause), safety and tolerability, and pt reported outcomes are secondary endpoints.
