Background: GLS-010 (zimberelimab) is a novel, fully human, anti-programmed death-1 monoclonal antibody that shows promising efficacy and safety in advanced solid tumors. This trial aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GLS-010 (zimberelimab) in Chinese patients with relapsed or refractory classical Hodgkin lymphoma (r/r-cHL).Methods: This phase II, single-arm, open-label, multicenter clinical trial was conducted at 24 centers in China and enrolled patients with r/r-cHL after two or more lines of therapy. The patients were administered intravenous GLS-010 (zimberelimab) (240 mg, once every 2 weeks) until progression, death, unacceptable toxicity, or consent withdrawal. The primary end-point was the objective response rate assessed by an independent radiology review committee (IRC). This study was registered (NCT03655483).Results: Eighty-five patients were enrolled between August 2018 and August 2019. The median follow-up was 15.8 months. Seventy-seven patients (90.6%; 95% confidence interval [CI] 82.3-95.9) had an IRC-assessed objective response. The complete response rate was 32.9% (n Z 28). The 12-month progression-free survival and overall survival rates were 78% (95% CI 67.5-85.6) and 99% (95% CI 91.9-99.8), respectively. Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were observed in 92.9% of participants. Grade III or IV TRAEs occurred in 24 (28.2%) of the 85 participants. The most common grade III or IV TRAEs were abnormal hepatic function (5.9%), hyperuricemia (4 .7%), decreased neutrophil count (3.5%), and increased weight (3.5%). Only one grade V AE, gastrointestinal infection, occurred. Conclusions: GLS-010 (zimberelimab) appears to be effective and safe for the treatment of Chinese patients with r/r-cHL. Long-term follow-up is required to confirm these clinical benefits.(c) 2021 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
