A Phase 1/2 Study of CYT-0851 in B-Cell Malignancies and Advanced Solid Tumors

Not Recruiting

Trial ID: NCT03997968

Purpose

This clinical trial is an interventional, active-treatment, open-label, multi-center, Phase 1/2 study. The study objectives are to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of CYT-0851 in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell malignancies and advanced solid tumors and to identify a recommended Phase 2 dose as a monotherapy and in combination with chemotherapy for evaluation in these patients.
