ABSTRACT Introduction Composite indolent B‐cell lymphomas may remain unrecognized when one component dominates the clinical presentation. Apparent relapse after therapy may, therefore, represent the emergence of a biologically distinct lymphoma rather than the recurrence of the original disease. Case Presentation An 82‐year‐old woman presented with systemic low‐grade B‐cell lymphoma that was most consistent with marginal zone lymphoma (MZL). Staging demonstrated peripheral blood involvement and multifocal FDG‐avid disease. Treatment with the CD20×CD3‐bispecific antibody mosunetuzumab resulted in complete metabolic remission. During surveillance, a new, isolated cervical lymph node developed despite sustained systemic response. Biopsy revealed follicular lymphoma (Grade 1–2) with a germinal center phenotype and a BCL2 rearrangement, findings discordant with recurrence of MZL. Retrospective review of the original specimen identified in situ follicular neoplasia within the initial biopsy. The disease course was, therefore, reinterpreted as a synchronous composite lymphoma in which treatment of the dominant MZL unmasked a previously clinically silent B‐cell neoplasm with follicular lineage. Local radiotherapy achieved remission of the follicular component. Conclusions New disease following treatment of an indolent lymphoma should not automatically be interpreted as relapse. Discordant clinical behavior, particularly focal progression after systemic response, warrants repeat biopsy and integrated pathologic reassessment. This case illustrates how therapy may reveal preexisting clonal heterogeneity and emphasizes the importance of temporality in distinguishing relapse from composite lymphoma. Trial Registration The authors have confirmed clinical trial registration is not needed for this submission

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 .
