Trial Purpose

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of favezelimab (MK-4280) in combination with pembrolizumab (MK-3475) using a non-randomised study design in participants with the following haematological 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 randomised study design.

The study will have 2 phases: a safety lead-in and an efficacy expansion phase. The recommended Phase 2 dose (RPTD) will be determined in the safety lead-in phase by evaluating dose-limiting toxicities.

There is no primary hypothesis for this study.
