Study summary
This study consists of a dose escalation/confirmation phase and an efficacy expansion phase. The dose escalation/confirmation phase is to determine the safety and tolerability and establish a preliminary recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of zilovertamab vedotin when administered in combination with R-CHP in participants with DLBCL who have received no prior treatment for their disease. The efficacy expansion phase is to determine the efficacy of the RP2D of zilovertamab vedotin when administered in combination with R-CHP in participants with DLBCL who have received no prior treatment for their disease.
Eligibility
The main inclusion and exclusion criteria include but are not limited to the following:
Inclusion:
* Has histologically confirmed diagnosis of DLBCL by prior biopsy

* Has received no prior treatment for DLBCL
* Has an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 1 assessed within 7 days prior to the start of study intervention
Exclusion:
* Has a history of transformation of indolent disease to DLBCL
* Has received solid organ transplant at any time
* Has received a diagnosis of primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL)
* Has clinically significant (ie, active) cardiovascular disease: cerebral vascular accident/stroke (\<6 months prior to enrollment), myocardial infarction (\<6 months prior to enrollment), unstable angina, congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association Classification Class ≥II), or serious cardiac arrhythmia requiring medication

* Has received prior radiotherapy within 28 days of start of study intervention
* Has ongoing corticosteroid therapy (exceeding 30 mg daily of prednisone equivalent)
* Has received a live or live-attenuated vaccine within 30 days before the first dose of study intervention
* Has received a strong inhibitor or inducer of CYP3A4 (including itraconazole, ketoconazole, posaconazole, or voriconazole) within 7 days prior to the start of study intervention or expected requirement for chronic use of a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor until \<30 days after the last dose
* Is currently participating in or has participated in a study of an investigational agent or has used an investigational device within 28 days before the first dose of study intervention
* Has known active central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma
* Has an active infection requiring systemic therapy
* Has a known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection
* Has a known active hepatitis C virus infection
* Has a known active hepatitis B virus infection
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Number of Participants Who Experienced Dose-limiting Toxicities (DLTs) in Cycle 1 — Cycle 1 (up to 21 days)
DLTs will be evaluated using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 5.0 and are defined as any drug-related adverse event (AE) observed during the DLT evaluation period (e.g. Cycle 1) that results in a change to a given dose or a delay in initiating the next cycle. The number of participants with DLTs in Cycle 1 will be reported. - Number of Participants Who Experienced At Least One AE — Up to approximately 8 months
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a study intervention. The number of participants who experience an AE will be reported. - Number of Participants Who Discontinued Study Treatment Due to an AE — Up to approximately 5.5 months
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a study intervention. The number of participants who discontinue study treatment due to an AE will be reported. - Complete Response Rate (CRR) per Lugano Response Criteria — Up to approximately 60 months
CRR is defined as the percentage of participants who achieve a Complete Response (CR) per Lugano response criteria \[Cheson, B. D., et al 2014\] for malignant lymphoma as assessed by the investigator. Assessment includes anatomic imaging with computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), metabolic imaging with positron emission tomography (PET), and clinical findings including physical examination and bone marrow biopsy results. The percentage of participants with CRR will be reported.
