Chemoimmunotherapy remains the standard 1L therapy for FL but is associated with limitations, including early progression and complications such as infections and secondary cancers.1

The MITHIC-FL1 trial aims to explore a chemotherapy-free treatment option, challenging traditional 1L chemoimmunotherapy.1 MITHIC-FL1 is a phase II trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of fixed-duration SC mosunetuzumab, a CD20xCD3 bispecific antibody, monotherapy in patients with ND FL (dosed, n = 78; response evaluable, n = 76).1

Primary analysis results from this trial were presented at the 66th ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition by Falchi.1 The primary endpoint was CR rate per Lugano response criteria.1


Key learnings
With a median follow-up of 13.3 months and a median treatment duration of 4.8 months, 86% of patients experienced a reduction in tumor burden of ≥80% from baseline.
The ORR was 96%, with a CR rate of 80%. The 1-year PFS and OS rates were 91% and 98.7%, respectively. CR was maintained at 1 year in 90% of patients who achieved a CR.
Most TEAEs and CRS events were mild and manageable. Low grade injection site reactions (70%), infections (56%), and CRS events (54%) were the most common TEAEs, with the majority being Grade I events.
Overall, efficacy and safety data from the MITHIC-FL1 study suggest that mosunetuzumab monotherapy could be a viable treatment option for patients with ND FL and warrant further investigation of SC mosunetuzumab in comparative 1L FL trials.
