Summary

This early-stage trial is testing an experimental drug called ONO-7018 in people with relapsed or refractory Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The drug works by blocking a protein called MALT1 that may help lymphoma cells grow. The study aims to see if the drug is safe and tolerable, and how it behaves in the body.
