Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. A documented diagnosis of B-cell Non- Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) per 2016 World Health Organization criteria and disease requiring treatment:

    2. Marginal zone lymphoma (MZL)
    3. Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL)
    4. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL)
    5. Other B-cell NHL
  2. Measurable disease.
  3. Received at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapies and not eligible to receive additional standard of care therapies.
  4. An Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) ≤ 2 at screening.
  5. Adequate organ function within 3 days of the first dose of study intervention.
  6. A negative blood pregnancy test within 7 days prior to first dose of study intervention (for women of childbearing potential).

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Receiving an investigational product or participating in any other type of medical research judged not to be compatible with this study.
  2. Grade > 1 neuropathy
  3. History of interstitial lung disease (ILD)/pneumonitis requiring treatment or any evidence of active ILD/pneumonitis.
  4. Use of:

    1. Chemotherapy, radiotherapy, small molecule, investigational, and biologic agents (including CD79b-directed agents) within 28 days (or at least 5 half-lives, whichever is shorter), prior to the first dose of the study intervention.
    2. Any live or live-attenuated vaccine within 28 days before the first dose of the study intervention.
  5. Ongoing clinically relevant toxicity from prior anticancer therapy that has not resolved to Grade ≤ 2 (neutropenia) or Grade ≤ 1 (thrombocytopenia or nonhematologic toxicities), with the exception of alopecia.
