e19046 Background: While outcomes in pts with R/R FL have improved with current SOC treatments (Tx), there remains a need for safe, efficacious, and convenient Tx options. GOLCA is a potential, first-in-class, oral CELMoD designed for Tx of lymphoma, with preferential distribution to lymphoid organs and enhanced activity in lymphoma cell lines. GOLCA induces rapid and deep degradation of Ikaros and Aiolos, leading to direct cell killing and immunomodulatory activity. GOLCA + R was well tolerated and effective in heavily pretreated pts in the two-part Ph 1/2 study, CC-99282-NHL-001. Here, we provide longer f/u in pts with R/R FL from Part B of the study. Methods: Pts with R/R FL with ≥2 prior lines of Tx (≥1 if prior anti-CD20 Tx) received GOLCA orally, once daily at 0.2 mg (n=22) or 0.4 mg (n=38) ± R for up to 2 y or until progressive disease (PD)/unacceptable toxicity. Primary endpoints included safety and RP2D determination; secondary endpoints are preliminary efficacy and PK. Results: As of September 15, 2025, 60 pts were enrolled. In 0.2 and 0.4 mg groups, median prior Tx lines were 3 and 3, 32% and 32% had prior lenalidomide (LEN), 27% and 29% had prior T-cell–redirecting Tx (CAR T and/or bispecific antibody) and 32% and 32% were refractory to last regimen. Tx is ongoing in 6 (27%) and 17 (45%) pts at 0.2 and 0.4 mg, respectively; discontinuations (d/c) were mostly due to PD. Neutropenia, an on-target side effect of GOLCA, was the most common grade 3/4 Tx-emergent adverse event (TEAE) occurring in 59% and 68% of pts at 0.2 and 0.4 mg, followed by anemia (9% and 16%) and febrile neutropenia (9% and 8%). Median time to resolution of neutropenia was 8 days. Dose reductions occurred in 14% and 37% of pts at 0.2 and 0.4 mg, most commonly due to neutropenia (5% and 21%) and febrile neutropenia (5% and 5%). No d/c or deaths were from GOLCA-related TEAEs. Non-hematologic TEAEs were infrequent and mostly low grade. In efficacy-evaluable pts (GOLCA 0.2 and 0.4 mg + R, n=22 and n=36), median f/u was 14.03 months (mo), overall response rate (ORR) was 77% (complete response rate [CRR], 41%) at 0.2 mg, and 97% (CRR, 78%) at 0.4 mg. In the 0.4 mg group, responses were consistent in high-risk subsets including pts with prior LEN (ORR, 100%; CRR, 75%) and/or T-cell–redirecting Tx (ORR, 91%; CRR, 64%). GOLCA 0.4 mg + R demonstrated durable responses (median DOR, 9.17 mo; 91% of pts who achieved a CR remained in CR at cutoff). Conclusions: With longer f/u, GOLCA + R demonstrated promising efficacy with durable responses and no new safety signals. The 0.4 mg group had higher ORR and CRR than 0.2 mg, including in pts with prior LEN-based and/or T-cell–redirecting Tx, with a manageable safety profile at both doses. The results support the development of GOLCA + R as a fixed-duration, chemotherapy-free outpatient Tx in the Ph 3 GOLSEEK-4 study in 2L+ FL (NCT06911502). Clinical trial information: NCT03930953 .

Abstract Introduction While outcomes in patients with R/R FL have improved with T-cell–redirecting treatments (e.g. CAR T-cell therapy, bispecific antibodies), there remains an unmet need for safe, efficacious, and more convenient chemotherapy-free treatment options (Caridà et al, Eur J Haematol. 2025). GOLCA is a potential, first-in-class, oral CELMoD agent designed for the treatment of lymphoma, with preferential distribution to lymphoid organs and enhanced activity in lymphoma cell lines. GOLCA drives the closed, active conformation of cereblon to induce rapid and deep degradation of Ikaros and Aiolos, leading to direct cell killing (agnostic of cell of origin) and immunomodulatory activity. In the two-part, multicenter, first-in-human Phase 1/2 study (CC-99282-NHL-001; NCT03930953), GOLCA was well tolerated and effective in patients with R/R FL (Cordoba et al, ICML 2025, #441). Here, we provide longer follow-up in patients with R/R FL from Part B of the study. Methods Patients with R/R FL with ≥ 2 prior lines of therapy (≥ 1 in Part B if prior anti-CD20 therapy) were included in the study. Patients received GOLCA monotherapy orally, once daily at different dosing schedules in Part A. In Part B, GOLCA was dosed at 0.2 or 0.4 mg (14 days on/14 days off) ± R. Total GOLCA treatment duration was up to 2 years or until progressive disease (PD)/unacceptable toxicity. Primary objectives included safety and recommended Phase 2 dose determination. Results As of April 3, 2025, a total of 72 patients with R/R FL were enrolled: 12 in Part A (GOLCA monotherapy) and 60 in Part B Cohort D (22 received GOLCA 0.2 mg + R; 38 received GOLCA 0.4 mg + R). Patients were heavily pre-treated. Median number of prior treatments was 4.5 (range, 2–6) in Part A and 3 (range, 1–12) in Part B Cohort D. Approximately one-third of the treated patients were exposed to prior T-cell–redirecting therapy, approximately one-third had prior lenalidomide (len) exposure, and approximately one-third were refractory to the last regimen received. At the time of data cutoff, in Part A, 4 patients completed 2 years of GOLCA, remaining in remission at last follow-up; 8 discontinued due to PD. In Part B Cohort D, 41% of patients treated with 0.2 mg and 63% with 0.4 mg were ongoing. PD was the most common reason for discontinuation. In the safety evaluable population (n = 60; GOLCA 0.2 or 0.4 mg + R), neutropenia, an on-target side effect of GOLCA, was the most common grade 3/4 treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) and occurred in 65% of patients, followed by anemia (13%) and febrile neutropenia (8%). Serious AEs related to GOLCA occurred in 22% of patients, most commonly infections (17%) and febrile neutropenia (7%); pulmonary embolism occurred in 1 patient with 0.2 mg. The most common causes of GOLCA interruption in the overall safety population were infections (32%) and neutropenia (18%). Dose reductions were mostly due to neutropenia (10%) and febrile neutropenia (5%). No discontinuations or deaths occurred from GOLCA-related TEAEs. Non-hematologic TEAEs were infrequent and mostly low grade, with the most common being gastrointestinal disorders (7%). In the efficacy evaluable patients (n = 56; GOLCA 0.2 or 0.4 mg + R) at a median follow-up of 10.8 months, the overall response rate (ORR) was 89% (complete response rate [CRR], 61%). With 0.2 mg, ORR was 81% (CRR, 43%) and with 0.4 mg, ORR was 94% (CRR, 71%). In the 0.4-mg group, responses were consistent in high-risk subsets, including patients with prior len (ORR, 100%; CRR, 73%) and/or T-cell–redirecting therapy (ORR, 91%; CRR, 64%). With GOLCA 0.4 mg, 10 patients had response lasting > 12 months, including 5 with prior T-cell–redirecting therapy and 6 with prior len. Conclusions With additional follow-up, GOLCA + R continued to show promising efficacy with durable responses and no new safety signals. A higher ORR/CRR and similar tolerability were observed with GOLCA 0.4 mg + R vs GOLCA 0.2 mg + R, including in patients with prior len-based and/or T-cell–redirecting treatment. These data support continued development of GOLCA 0.4 mg + R as a fixed-duration, chemotherapy-free, outpatient option in the ongoing Phase 3 GOLSEEK-4 study in 2L+ FL (NCT06911502).
