Conclusions

• Tazemetostat is an oral EZH2 inhibitor with a good tolerance profile

• Tazemetostat is highly active in R/R follicular lymphoma

• ORR of 69% in MT EZH2 (35% in WT EZH2)• Median PFS of 13.8 months in MT EZH2 (11.1 months in WT EZH2)

• Durable responses, also in high-risk subgroups

• Tazemetostat is a good candidate for future combination studies

Conclusions

• Mosunetuzumab monotherapy exhibits a promising risk-benefit profile in R/R B-NHL

• Achieves CR in high-risk patients (including post CAR-T)• CR are maintained after completion of therapy • Re-treatment is feasible

• Single-agent and combination studies are ongoing, including studies in untreated patients

TAKE HOME MESSAGES

• IBRUTINIB + VENETOCLAX combination is tolerable and achieve a high rate of complete and durable responses in MCL (CRR 62%), phase 3 SYMPATICO is ongoing

• TAZEMETOSTAT is a well tolerated first-in-class oral EZH2 inhibitor showing activity in both mutated and unmutated FL

• Anti CD20/CD 3 BITEs demonstrated an acceptable safety profile and impressive ORR/CRR in heavily pretreated CD20+ NHL including post-CAR T-cell relapses
