Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug to see if it's effective and has acceptable side effects for people with lymphoma who haven't responded to other treatments.

Who is the study for?
Adults with relapsed or refractory Hodgkin or Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma who've had prior B cell therapy are eligible. They must have measurable disease, be in good physical condition (ECOG 0-1), and agree to use contraception. Exclusions include lung disease requiring steroids, certain psychiatric/substance abuse disorders, recent other cancer treatments, live vaccines within a month, active infections like Hepatitis/HIV, autoimmune diseases treated within two years.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing CMP-001 combined with pembrolizumab for lymphoma patients who haven't responded well to previous treatments. It's an early phase trial aiming to find the right dose that works best while keeping side effects manageable.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects may include reactions at the injection site of CMP-001 and immune-related adverse effects from pembrolizumab such as fatigue, skin issues, inflammation in organs like lungs or intestines, hormonal imbalances and infusion reactions.
