Abstract

Many therapies are available for the treatment of relapsed/refractory (R/R) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) after ≥ 2 lines of therapy, albeit with scant evidence on the comparative effectiveness of these therapies. This study used inverse probability of treatment weighting to indirectly compare treatment outcomes of epcoritamab from the EPCORE NHL-1 trial with individual patient data from clinical practice cohorts treated with chemoimmunotherapy (CIT) and novel therapies (polatuzumab-based regimens, tafasitamab-based regimens, and chimeric antigen receptor T-cell [CAR T] therapies) for third-line or later R/R large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) and DLBCL. In this analysis, epcoritamab demonstrated significantly better response rates and overall survival rates than CIT, polatuzumab-based regimens, and tafasitamab-based regimens. No statistically significant differences in response rates or survival were found for epcoritamab compared with CAR T in R/R LBCL.
