Study of Tafasitamab and Lenalinomide Associated to Rituximab in Frontline Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma Patients of 80 y/o or Older

This study evaluate the efficacy of Tafasitamab and Lenalinomide associated to Rituximab in elderly patients with frontline Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma as assessed by the Overall Response Rate (ORR) after 3 cycles of treatment according to Lugano Response Criteria.

This study is an open-label, multi-centric, phase II study designed to evaluate the efficacy of Tafasitamab and Lenalinomide associated to Rituximab in elderly patients with frontline Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma as assessed by the Overall Response Rate (ORR) after 3 cycles of treatment according to Lugano Response Criteria.

After a screening phase, eligible patients will be enrolled and start the prephase treatment with vincristine and prednisone before day 1 of cycle 1 of the experimental drugs.

Patients with Progressive Disease or Stable Disease after 3 cycles should start a conventional chemotherapy (R-miniCHOP) at Investigator's discretion and will remain in the study.

Eligibility Criteria:

* High-grade B-cell lymphoma, Not Otherwise Specified (NOS)
* Follicular lymphoma grade 3B 3.Positron-Emission Tomography (PET)-positive disease 4.Previously untreated high-grade B-cell lymphoma 5.Aged ≥ 80 years old at the time of signing the informed consent form (ICF) 6.Ann Arbor stage I, II, III or IV 7.Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECO)G performance status ≤ 2 8.With a minimum life expectancy of 3 months 9.Male patients must practice complete abstinence or agree to use a condom during sexual contact with a pregnant female or a female of childbearing potential while participating in the study, during dose interruptions, and for 4 months following study drug discontinuation, even if they have undergone a successful vasectomy 10. Patients should be able to receive R-miniCHOP regimen (left ventricular ejection fraction \> 50% and good general condition, according to investigator's judgment) 11. Patients should be able to receive adequate prophylaxis and/or therapy for thromboembolic events (aspirin or low molecular weight heparin) 12. Patient covered by any social security system (France)

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Any other histological type of lymphoma, Burkitt included
2. Any history of treated or non-treated Small-B cell lymphoma prior Aggressive B Cell lymphoma diagnosis
3. Central nervous system or meningeal involvement by lymphoma

9. Treatment with any investigational drug within 30 days prior to prephase treatment and during the study
10. Known HIV, active Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection or positive Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) test within 4 weeks before enrollment (except after hepatitis B vaccination or for patients who are HBs Ag negative, anti-HBs positive and/or anti-HBc positive but viral DNA negative)
11. Prior treatment with anti-CD20/anti-CD19 monoclonal antibody or alemtuzumab within 3 months prior to prephase treatment
12. Prior ≥ Grade 3 allergic reaction/hypersensitivity to thalidomide
13. Contra-indication to highly dosed glucocorticoid (60 mg/m2/d)
14. Neuropathy ≥ Grade 2 or painful
