The median follow-up time was 15.7 months (range: 0.3-23.5 months)3

 

Overall response rate (primary endpoint)1

ORR is based on Lugano Criteria (2014) as assessed by Independent Review Committee

Complete response and median duration of response (secondary endpoints)1

Median time to CR was 2.6 months (1.2-10.2 months)1

At 20-month follow-up, mDOCR in patients who achieved complete response was 20.8 months (95% CI, 15.8-NR)4
