    The trial evaluated the safety and efficacy of the therapy in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL)


    A bispecific antibody is an antibody molecule that can specifically bind to two different antigens
    .


    Epcoritamab is a bispecific T cell redirection antibody


    The dose-escalation part of the open-label, multicenter EPCORE NHL-1 trial was carried out in 68 patients with relapsed/refractory CD20-positive B-cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (B-NHL), including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma Tumors and follicular lymphoma
    .

    The test results showed that no dose-limiting toxicity was observed during the dose escalation process, and the recommended dose (RP2D) for the phase 2 clinical trial was determined to be 48 mg
    .


    Common adverse events (AE) in patients with relapsed/refractory DLCBL were fever (69%), mainly related to cytokine release syndrome (CRS) (59%, all grades 1-2) and injection site reactions (47%) , All are level 1) related


    In patients with relapsed/refractory DLCBL who received RP2D therapy (n=8), the preliminary efficacy results reported in the trial showed that the patients achieved an overall response rate (ORR) of 88% and a complete response (CR) of 38%
    .


    Secondly, patients (n=22) who received 12-60 mg epcoritamab achieved 68% ORR and 45% CR
