Background:Patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphomas have limited treatment options.GERSHWIN is an open-label,single-arm,phase Ib study of obinutuzumab monotherapy in Chinese patients with histologically docu-mented CD20+relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia(CLL),diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL),or follicular lymphoma(FL).The primary outcome measure of pharmacokinetics has been previously reported.We now present data on the secondary endpoint measures(e.g.,safety,and efficacy and pharmacodynamics).Methods:Patients received 1000 mg obinutuzumab intravenously on days 1,8,and 15 of cycle 1(CLL patients;first dose split over 2 days),and on day 1 of cycles 2-8.Each cycle lasted for 21 days;the treatment period was 24 weeks.All subjects receiving at least one dose of obinutuzumab were included in the analysis of safety,efficacy,as well as pharmacodynamics.Results:A total of 48 patients(>18 years of age)were enrolled(CLL:12;DLBCL:23;FL:13).The subjects received a median of two lines of anticancer treatment prior to the enrollment.Thirty-five patients(72.9%)had at least one adverse event(AE).The most frequent AE was infusion-related reactions(15 patients;31.3%),followed by pyrexia(11 patients;22.9%).Treatment-related AEs were reported in 28 patients(58.3%),and included one death(interstitial lung disease).End-of-treatment(EoT)response rate was 33.3%.Best overall response rate was 47.9%.Most CLL patients achieved a partial response at EoT(58.3%).CD19+depletion occurred in 75.0%of the patients with CLL,and all patients with FL and DLBCL.Conclusions:The safety and efficacy of obinutuzumab monotherapy in Chinese patients with B-cell lymphomas were similar to that observed in previous studies in non-Chinese patients;no new safety signals were observed.
