What this trial studies

This open-label, multi-center Phase 1 study evaluates the safety and efficacy of oral LP-168 in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) who have not responded to or are intolerant of standard treatments. The study consists of two parts: a dose escalation phase (1a) to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and a dose expansion phase (1b) to further assess the drug's effectiveness. Participants will receive LP-168 in tablet form, starting at a dose of 100 mg per day, with treatment cycles lasting 28 days.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include individuals diagnosed with relapsed or refractory B-cell lymphomas who have received at least one line of standard care treatment.

Not a fit: Patients with B-cell lymphomas that have not been classified as relapsed or refractory, or those who have not received prior treatment, may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new option for patients with difficult-to-treat B-cell lymphomas.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promise with similar investigational therapies for B-cell lymphomas, suggesting potential for success in this approach.
