Conditions
Hodgkin Disease, Lymphoma, B-Cell, Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin
Trial Purpose
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of favezelimab (MK-4280) in combination with pembrolizumab (MK-3475) using a non-randomized study design in participants with the following hematological malignancies:
* classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL)
* diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL)
* indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma (iNHL)
This study will also evaluate the safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab or favezelimab administered as monotherapy in participants with cHL using a 1:1 randomized study design.
The study will have 2 phases: a safety lead-in and an efficacy expansion phase. The recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) will be determined in the safety lead-in phase by evaluating dose-limiting toxicities.
There is no primary hypothesis for this study.

About The Study
Trial Phase
Trial Phase 1
Investigational medication is tested for safety on a relatively small group of 20 to 100 volunteers who are usually healthy, but not always. Phase 1 trials may happen in a doctor’s office or a hospital.
Trial Phase 2
In Phase 2 trials, researchers try to find out if a treatment works in about 100 to 500 participants – usually people who have the health condition the treatment is intended to treat. In vaccine trials, the participants are usually healthy. Phase 2 trials may happen in a doctor’s office, a clinic, or a hospital.
