Brief summary: This is a Phase 2, multicenter study evaluating the efficacy and safety of mosunetuzumab + zanubrutinib (M+Z) used as salvage strategy in patients with R/R FL who have received at least one line of prior systemic therapy.

Detailed description: Eligible patients receive a pre-phase with oral zanubrutinib followed by an induction phase with mosunetuzumab combined with oral zanubrutinib.

Patients responsive to induction phase with M+Z (C1-12) and achieving at least SD will receive maintenance with zanubrutinib for additional 12 months (C13-24).

There will be an initial safety run-in (SRI) phase of 10 patients which will be closely monitored for the observed toxicities during the first three cycles of induction (from C1D1 to C3D28). No patients will be further enrolled until SRI analyses is completed.

If no unexpected toxicity has been observed, subsequent patients will be monitored only for patient informed consent, grade 3-5 toxicities and SAEs as well as remission status.

Safety data will be evaluated by an independent data safety monitoring board (DSMB) that will advise the principal investigators on the continuation of the study. Safety events will be analyzed and compared with the previously described safety profile of mosunetuzumab alone and other bispecific-containing regimens to exclude the risk of potential toxicity for all study participants.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

3. Age ≥18 years.
4. Relapsed or refractory disease. Histologic confirmation of FL relapse is not mandatory but is highly recommended.

16. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test at screening.
17. Men must agree to use an acceptable method of contraception for the duration of the study and for 1 week after receiving the last dose of study drug.
18. Male even if surgically sterilized (i.e., status post vasectomy) must agree to 1 of the following:

    * practice effective barrier contraception (e.g.: condoms) , or
    * agree to practice abstinence, when this is in line with the usual lifestyle of the subject (periodic abstinence is not permitted).

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Histological diagnosis different from cFL (Campo E., 2022).
2. R/R FL who were treated with more than three lines of previous treatment (autologous stem cell transplant performed as part of consolidation to a previous line of therapy should not be considered as a line of therapy; rituximab maintenance as part of a previous line of therapy should not be considered as a line of therapy; radiotherapy alone or in combination with rituximab is not considered a line of therapy).
3. Patients with stage I or II (limited stage) suitable for RT alone treatment.
