The objective of the trial is to test the efficacy and toxicity of treatment with Pembrolizumab and Rituximab in patients with MZL in need of treatment, who have failed or are not eligible for local therapy or relapsed. For efficacy the rate of complete remissions (according to the GELA criteria for gastric MALT or to the Cheson 2007 criteria for nodal and splenic MZL) after end of treatment (18 cycles) will be primarily analyzed. For toxicity assessment treatment associated adverse events, quality of life and cumulative incidence of secondary malignancies will be documented.

Confirmed CD20 positive de novo or relapsed MALT Lymphoma OR splenic MZL OR nodal MZL in need of treatment.

56 subjects

Primary endpoint is the complete response (CR rate (CRR) determined after end of treatment (18 cycles). Patients who progress before EOT will be treated as CR=’NO’ and will be included in the calculation of the primary endpoint. No primary endpoint will be determined for patients who withdraw. These patients will be excluded from the confirmatory data analysis but will be analyzed in a separate exploratory sensitivity analysis of the primary endpoint.

• Response rate (CR, PR, CR or PR)
• Best response
• Time to best response
• Time to first response
• Progression free survival (PFS)
• Time to treatment failure (TTF)
• Duration of Response (DR)
• Cause specific survival (CSS)
• Overall survival (OS)
• Quality of life during therapy

A highly effective method of birth control is defined as those which results in a low failure rate (i.e. less than 1% per year) when used consistently and correctly such as combined (estrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, intravaginal or transdermal), progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, injectable or implantable), intrauterine device (IUD), intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS), bilateral tubal occlusion, vasectomised partner or sexual abstinence. Contraception and pregnancy testing are required according the CTFG recommendations
