The purpose of this study is to determine whether an experimental drug called NX-5948 (bexobrutideg) is safe and effective in treating adults who have relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). Relapsed or refractory means that CLL/SLL has either come back or did not respond after treatment. Participants must have previously received 3 different standard types of medications for CLL/SLL. Study procedures include daily oral administration of the bexobrutideg, blood draws, questionnaires, electrocardiograms, and computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. Researchers will also measure the amount of bexobrutideg in the blood at various times. Bexobrutideg is a medicine designed to target a protein called bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK), which helps cancer cells grow in certain blood cancers like CLL and SLL. Bexobrutideg works by breaking down BTK and acts like a protein degrader, which means that it finds and destroys specific proteins like BTK in the cell.
NX-5948-201: Single-arm, Phase 2, Open-label, Multicenter Study to Evaluate NX-5948 in Adults with Relapsed/Refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma Previously Exposed to a Bruton s Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor and a B-cell Lymphoma-2 Inhibitor
