About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Study of Glofitamab and Obinutuzumab for First-line Treatment of Follicular Lymphoma and Marginal Zone Lymphoma

The purpose of this study is to determine how effective and safe the combination of glofitamab and obinutuzumab is in treating patients with Follicular Lymphoma (FL) and Marginal Zone Lymphoma (MZL) who have not received other treatments for their lymphoma.

The names of the study drugs involved in this study are:

  • Glofitamab (a type of immunotherapy)
  • Obinutuzumab (a type of immunotherapy)
Read the detailed description

This is an open-label, multicenter, phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of obinutuzumab and glofitamab for patients with untreated follicular lymphoma (FL) or marginal zone lymphoma (MZL). Obinutuzumab and Glofitamab use the immune system to target and attack cancer cells.

The research study procedures include screening for eligibility, study treatment visits, bone marrow biopsies, blood tests, Computerized Tomography (CT) scans, and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scans.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved glofitamab as a treatment for any disease.

The U.S. FDA has approved obinutuzumab in combination with chemotherapy for patients with follicular lymphoma.

Participants will receive study treatment for approximately 9 months and will be followed for 10 years.

It is expected that about 45-50 people will take part in this research study.

Genentech and Roche are supporting this research study by providing the study drugs, glofitamab and obinutuzumab, and funding for the study.

  4. EOT Partial Metabolic Response (PMR) Rate

    EOT PMR rate defined as the proportion of participants achieving PR per PET/CT Lugano 2014 criteria (protocol appendix B) at the EOT assessment: PET-CT Score 4 or 5 with reduced uptake compared with baseline and residual mass(es).

    Measured: (Cycle 1 = 36 days, cycle 2 - 12 = 21 days), up to 267 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Obinutuzumab and Glofitamab in people with Follicular Lymphoma and Marginal Zone Lymphoma, run by Reid Merryman, MD at 4 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 29 inclusion and 16 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Sep 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

End of Treatment (EOT) Complete Metabolic Response (CMR) Rate (time frame: (Cycle 1 = 36 days, cycle 2 - 12 = 21 days), up to 267 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05783596, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Sep 2026.
