This is a first-in-human study, meaning that the drug has not been tested on humans before. Researchers are testing to find the best dose, safety and efficacy of NX-5948, which is a new type of drug called a BTK degrader. This type of drug targets proteins called BTK that help cancer cells to grow.
Because NX-5948 is in the early phases of trials, not much is known about it and researchers don’t know who will benefit from it. However, findings from the trial will inform future studies and trials, meaning it will help people with WM in the future.
• A confirmed diagnosis of WM
• WM that has returned or not responded to prior treatment
• You must have had at least two prior lines of treatment and have no further treatment options available
