Leukemia, Lymphocytic, Chronic, B-Cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma | Biological: Tafasitamab Drug: Idelalisib Drug: Venetoclax | Phase 2 |
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical safety and preliminary efficacy of tafasitamab (MOR208) combined with idelalisib or venetoclax. The study will include safety run-in phase for each cohort with an evaluation of the safety data by an Independent Data Monitoring Committee.
An optional sub-study has been introduced to collect biological samples for investigations on biomarkers (e.g., CD19 expression) after tafasitamab treatment.
