The Pope excommunicated Martin Luther in 1520. However, the Elector of Saxony declined to enforce the Bull of Excommunication, which Luther publicly burnt in the university at Wittenberg. In 1521 the Pope issued a further Bull against Luther and called upon the Emperor to enforce it. Instead, Charles called a Diet at Worms. Luther was called upon to recant, but adamantly refused.

The Church reacted the same way that she would to any heretic, she tried everything in her power to save him. The Church, particularly the pope at that time, repeatedly made attempts to meet with Martin Luther even to providing him transportation to Rome to meet with the Holy Father. Martin Luther scorned every overture of the Church, and actually burned the Holy Father's invitation. At that point the Church reacted in the only way she could, by publicly condemning Luther's heretical propositions and excommunicating him. See attached links below.
