- Percentage of Participants With Complete Response After Administration of Valemetostat Tosylate Monotherapy (Cohort 1) [ Time Frame: From baseline to date of first documented objective response of CR, up to approximately 56 months ]Complete response rate is the percentage of participants achieving CR as the BOR based on BICR assessments.
- Duration of Complete Response After Administration of Valemetostat Tosylate Monotherapy (Cohort 1) [ Time Frame: Time from the date of first documented CR until documented disease progression (progressive or relapsed disease) based on BICR assessments or death from any cause (whichever occurs first), up to approximately 56 months ]Duration of complete response is defined as the time from the date of the first documentation of CR to the date of the first documentation of disease progression (progressive or relapsed disease) based on BICR assessments or to death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.
- Percentage of Participants With Partial Response After Administration of Valemetostat Tosylate Monotherapy (Cohort 1) [ Time Frame: From baseline to date of first documented objective response of PR, up to approximately 56 months ]Partial response rate is the percentage of participants achieving PR as the BOR based on BICR assessment.

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Written informed consent
- Participants ≥18 years of age or the minimum legal adult age (whichever is greater) at the time the informed consent form is signed.
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0, 1, or 2
-
Cohort 1 relapsed/refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL):
-
Diagnosis should be confirmed by the local pathologist; local histological diagnosis will be used for eligibility determination. Participants with the following subtypes of PTCL are eligible according to 2016 WHO classification prior to the initiation of study drug. Any T-cell lymphoid malignancies not listed are excluded. Eligible subtypes include:
- Enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma
- Monomorphic epitheliotropic intestinal T-cell lymphoma
- Hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma
- Primary cutaneous γδ T-cell lymphoma
- Primary cutaneous CD8+ aggressive epidermotropic cytotoxic T-cell lymphoma
- PTCL, not otherwise specified
- Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma
- Follicular T-cell lymphoma
- Nodal PTCL with T-follicular helper (TFH) phenotype
- Anaplastic large cell lymphoma, ALK positive
- Anaplastic large cell lymphoma, ALK negative
-
- Cohort 2 relapsed/refractory adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) acute, lymphoma, or unfavorable chronic type. Relapsed/refractory ATL should be confirmed by the local pathologist; local diagnosis will be used for eligibility determination. The positivity of anti-human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) antibody will be locally determined for eligibility.
- Must have at least one lesion which is measurable in 2 perpendicular dimensions on computed tomography (or magnetic resonance imaging) based on local radiological read
-

-
Refractory is defined as:
- Failure to achieve CR (or CRu for ATL) after first-line therapy
- Failure to reach at least PR after second-line therapy or beyond
-
-
Must have at least 1 prior line of systemic therapy for PTCL or ATL.
- Participants must be considered hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) ineligible during screening due to disease status (active disease), comorbidities, or other factors; the reason for HCT ineligibility must be clearly documented.
