Abstract Introduction Patients with follicular lymphoma (FL) receiving third-line or later (3L +) therapy have long survival, which can make estimating long-term overall survival (OS) from trial data challenging. The objective of this study was to estimate long-term OS for mosunetuzumab from the GO29781 trial (NCT02500407) using multiple real-world databases (RWDs) in a Bayesian framework. Methods Seven RWD sources for patients with FL receiving 3L + therapy and the expansion cohort in the GO29781 trial for mosunetuzumab were used. Hazard trends from the RWD sources were analyzed, and disease-wide pointwise OS and its corresponding uncertainty were estimated using Bayesian random-effects meta-analysis from the RWD sources. Pointwise OS obtained was used as an informative prior in Bayesian survival extrapolations to data from patients receiving mosunetuzumab. Results after adjusting for background mortality were compared to equivalent frequentist extrapolations using trial data only. Results Hazard patterns from RWD sources supported a constant or linearly decreasing hazard. Mean pointwise OS for patients with FL receiving 3L + therapy was estimated at 0.52 (95% credible interval, 0.29–0.85) at 8 years. Bayesian extrapolations for mosunetuzumab produced median survival estimates of 11.6 (6.7–20.7) years to 17.0 (6.4–22.7) years depending on the distribution used, reducing uncertainty by 20% to 46% relative to the frequentist estimation. Conclusion Multiple RWD sources can be synthesized to augment the credibility of data with short follow-up, long patient survival, and few events to effectively estimate long-term survival and reduce estimated uncertainty. This method can be applied to other indications with similar characteristics. Clinical Trial Registration Number and Date of Registration NCT02500407, July 16, 2015.

The recently approved T-cell-dependent bispecific antibody mosunetuzumab showed promising results and manageable toxicities for patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma. Namely, as opposed to cellular immunotherapy options, this agent has the potential of being effective in patients with unfavorable features with a tolerable rate and severity of cytokine release syndrome, immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity, and infectious complications. Given the recent withdrawal from the market of PI3K inhibitors and the practical challenges in utilizing with chimeric antigen receptor T-cells (CAR-T) for some patients, mosunetuzumab represents a “breath of fresh air” for both patients and hemato-oncologists. More data are required to better define the real potential of this molecule, either alone or in combination with other agents, including antibody drug conjugates, immunomodulators, and checkpoint inhibitors. Future studies will also shed light on the efficacy of mosunetuzumab compared with CAR-T, in well-designed registries or ideally in randomized controlled trials.Keywords: mosunetuzumab, follicular lymphoma, T-cell-dependent bispecific, bispecific antibody

Patients experiencing an overdose are at an increased risk of severe adverse effects such as cytokine release syndrome (CRS), febrile neutropenia, neutropenia and pneumonia.
[A249320][L42230]
Preclinical single- and repeat-dose toxicity studies of up to 26 weeks in duration found that transient CRS was developed mostly after the first dose of mosunetuzumab. Findings suggest that this effect is pharmacologically-mediated and reversible.
[L42230]
The effect of mosunetuzumab on male and female reproductive organs was evaluated in sexually mature cynomolgus monkeys given an intravenous infusion dose equivalent to the one recommended in patients. Up to 26 weeks, mosunetuzumab did not have an effect on male or female reproductive organs.
[L42230]
Preclinical studies evaluating the effect of mosunetuzumab on developmental toxicity have not been conducted.
Due to the low placental transfer of antibodies during the first trimester, mosunetuzumab is not expected to have a teratogenic effect. However, it can lead to a higher risk of opportunistic infections, which may cause fetal loss.
[L42230]
Patients treated with mosunetuzumab may develop cytokine release syndrome (CRS), including life-threatening reactions. CRS mainly occurred on days 1 and 15 of cycle 1. To avoid CRS, patients should receive corticosteroids, antipyretics and antihistamines prior to mosunetuzumab therapy.[L42230] Serious infections such as pneumonia, bacteremia, and sepsis or septic shock have been reported in patients treated with mosunetuzumab, and caution should be exercised in patients with a history of recurring or chronic infections. Tumour flare and tumour lysis syndrome (TLS) have also been reported in patients treated with mosunetuzumab.[L42230]
How the body processes this drug — absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination
[L42230]
After two cycles of mosunetuzumab (42 days, given by intravenous infusion), patients reached a Cmax of 17.9 µg/mL at the end of dose of Cycle 2 Day 1. The average AUC of two cycles of mosunetuzumab was 126 µg⋅day/mL.
[L42230]
In patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma treated with mosunetuzumab, serum concentration reached the Cmax at the end of the intravenous infusion and declined in a bi-exponential fashion.
[L42230]
The steady-state values of mosunetuzumab were reached at cycle 4 (63 ‒ 84 days).
Steady-state AUC and Cmax were 52.9 day⋅μg/mL and 7.02 μg/mL, respectively.
[L44562]
Mosunetuzumab is expected to have a bioavailability close to 100% when given intravenously. In clinical trials, mosunetuzumab administered subcutaneously had a slow absorption rate and high bioavailability (>75%).
[A249335]
The pharmacokinetics of mosunetuzumab was similar in Asian and non-Asian subjects. Compared to males, the steady-state clearance of mosunetuzumab in females is marginally lower (approximately 13%), and dose adjustment based on gender is not required.

Upon TCR engagement, these motifs become phosphorylated by Src family protein tyrosine kinases LCK and FYN, resulting in the activation of downstream signaling pathways .

In addition of this role of signal transduction in T-cell activation, CD3E plays an essential role in correct T-cell development. Initiates the TCR-CD3 complex assembly by forming the two heterodimers CD3D/CD3E and CD3G/CD3E. Also participates in internalization and cell surface down-regulation of TCR-CD3 complexes via endocytosis sequences present in CD3E cytosolic region .

In addition to its role as a TCR coreceptor, it serves as a receptor for ITPRIPL1.
Ligand recognition inhibits T-cell activation by promoting interaction with NCK1, which prevents CD3E-ZAP70 interaction and blocks the ERK-NFkB signaling cascade and calcium influx PMID:38614099
