What this study is testing

Phase 1/2 pirtobrutinib monotherapy Phase 1: To determine the MTD/RP2D of oral pirtobrutinib in patients with previously treated CLL/SLL and B-cell NHL. Phase 2: To assess the preliminary antitumor activity of pirtobrutinib based on ORR as assessed by an IRC. (applicable to CLL/SLL and MCL patients only). Phase 1b pirtobrutinib in combination: To determine the safety of pirtobrutinib in combination with: Arm A: venetoclax Arm B: venetoclax + rituximab Combination therapy to be performed at selected sites as determined by the Sponsor.
