Regeneron's Odronextamab Shows Promise in Follicular Lymphoma Treatment, New Phase 3 Trial Underway

Wednesday, Jul 16, 2025 1:18 pm ET1min read

Regeneron Pharmaceuticals is conducting a Phase 3 clinical trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of odronextamab combined with chemotherapy compared to rituximab with chemotherapy for patients with follicular lymphoma. The study aims to determine if odronextamab is a more effective treatment option for follicular lymphoma patients, which could significantly impact Regeneron's market position and stock performance.

Regeneron Pharmaceuticals (REGN) has announced an update on their ongoing Phase 3 clinical trial, titled 'OLYMPIA-2'. The study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of odronextamab (REGN1979), an experimental bispecific antibody, combined with chemotherapy, versus rituximab with chemotherapy for previously untreated participants with follicular lymphoma [1].

Study Design and Interventions

The OLYMPIA-2 trial is an open-label, randomized study that began on November 14, 2023. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either odronextamab combined with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) or rituximab with the same chemotherapy regimen. The primary goal is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of odronextamab compared to the current standard treatment, rituximab with chemotherapy [1].

Potential Market Impact

If odronextamab proves more effective than rituximab, it could significantly impact Regeneron's market position. Positive results might boost investor confidence and stock performance, as well as influence competitors in the oncology sector. The ongoing recruitment and updates suggest active progress, with further details accessible on the ClinicalTrials portal [1].

Market Forecast

The follicular lymphoma market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6% during the forecast period (2025-2034), driven by increased awareness and clinical trial activity. In 2024, the market size was valued at USD 1,082 million, with the United States generating around USD 1,082 million in revenue [2].
