Tislelizumab Monotherapy Versus Salvage Chemotherapy for Relapsed/Refractory Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma

February 26, 2026 updated by: BeiGene

A Multicenter, Open-Label, Randomized Controlled Phase 3 Study of Tislelizumab Monotherapy Versus Salvage Chemotherapy in Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of tislelizumab in participants with relapsed or refractory classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL), as measured by Progression-free Survival (PFS) as assessed by investigator

Plan for Individual participant data (IPD)

Plan to Share Individual Participant Data (IPD)?

YES

IPD Plan Description

BeiGene shares data on completed studies responsibly and provides qualified scientific and medical researchers access to data and supporting documentation for clinical trials in dossiers for medicines and indications after submission and approval in the United States, China, and Europe. Clinical trials supporting subsequent local approvals, new indications, or combination products are eligible for sharing once corresponding regulatory approvals are achieved.

BeiGene shares data only when permitted by applicable data privacy and security laws and regulations, when it is feasible to do so without compromising the privacy of study participants, and other considerations.

Qualified researchers with appropriate competencies who are engaged in novel scientific research may submit a request for participant-level data with a research proposal for BeiGene review. Research teams must include a biostatistician and sign a Data Sharing Agreement prior to receiving access to clinical trial data.
