Gottfried von Keudell, MD PhD
Summary
This study is being done to determine if epcoritamab can be used to treat participants with previously treated Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia (WM). The names of the study drug involved in this study is: -Epcoritamab (a type of antibody)
Description
This is a prospective phase 2, single arm, open label trial to determine if epcoritamab can be used to treat participants with previously treated Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia (WM). Epcoritamab is a bispecific antibody, a synthetic protein that activates the immune system to target cancer cells. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved epcoritamab for WM. The research study procedures include screening for eligibility, in-clinic visits, questionnaires, blood tests, electrocardiograms, bone marrow biopsies, and Computerized Tomography (CT) scans. Participants will receive…
