Phase II study of venetoclax added to bendamustine and obinutuzumab in patients with high-risk follicular lymphoma as front-line therapy: PrE0403.

ABSTRACT: Over-expression of BCL-2 defines follicular lymphoma (FL). Venetoclax (VEN), a selective BCL-2 inhibitor, has previously been evaluated with bendamustine-based chemoimmunotherapy. VEN was given continuously, resulting in promising efficacy but unacceptable toxicity. The Phase II PrE0403 study was designed to evaluate intermittent dosing of VEN (10 days per cycle) combined with obinutuzumab and bendamustine (VEN-OB) in untreated FL subjects with high-risk features defined as a FLIPI-1 score of ≥3 and/or high tumor burden by GELF criteria. A total of 56 subjects were planned to be accrued with a goal of having 51 subjects eligible to improve the historical 50% CR rate to 65% with an 85% power and 15% type I error rate. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) expression of 3 antiapoptotic proteins (BCL-xL
