  • Research summary

    GDC-0199 and obinutuzumab are investigational drugs. The purpose of this phase Ib study is to determine if the combination of GDC-0199 at various dose levels and obinutuzumab is safe and well tolerated and to determine the effects, good and/or bad, this combination of medicines have on patients with relapsed/refractory or previously untreated Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia (CLL). CLL is cancer of a type of white blood cells called Lymphocytes. Relapsed/refractory means that the CLL has returned or is not responding.

    Appproximately 46 to 64 patients will be enrolled in this study at hospitals in the U.S. and Europe.

    There will also be optional additional genetic research on blood samples from patients that might help researchers to understand more about CLL and related diseases and why people do or do not respond to treatments.

    The Sponsor of this research study is Genentech Inc.
