What is the rationale behind the combination of glofitamab + polatuzumab in patients with R/R DLBCL?

Bosch begins by discussing the bispecific antibody glofitamab, and the targeted conjugated polatuzumab, highlighting that since they have different targets (CD20 and CD79b, respectively), they can be used together. He outlines a trial discussed at ASH 2021 that found promising toxicity and complete response rates from the combination.
