Overview
The purpose of this study is to define the recommended Phase 2 Dose, safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and preliminary efficacy of EO2463 during monotherapy and in combination with lenalidomide and/or rituximab in patients with indolent NHL
Description
EO2463 Is an innovative cancer peptide therapeutic vaccine based on the homologies between tumor associated antigens and microbiome-derived peptides that will be administered alone and in combination with lenalidomide, rituximab, and lenalidomide/rituximab to generate safety and preliminary efficacy data in patients with indolent NHL
