Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Number of Participants who Experience Adverse Events (AEs)
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention.
Number of Participants Discontinuing Study Treatment due to AEs
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention.
Maximum Concentration (Cmax) of Nemtabrutinib
Cmax is the maximum concentration of nemtabrutinib observed in plasma. Blood samples collected at designated timepoints will be used to determine Cmax.
Minimum Concentration (Cmin) of Nemtabrutinib
Cmin is the minimum concentration of nemtabrutinib observed in plasma. Blood samples collected at designated timepoints will be used to determine Cmin.
Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve from 0 to 24 Hours (AUC0-24) of Nemtabrutinib
AUC0-24 is the area under the curve of plasma concentration of nemtabrutinib from time 0 to 24 hours. Blood samples collected at designated timepoints will be used to determine AUC0-24.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Objective Response Rate (ORR) per International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (iwCLL) Criteria 2018 as Assessed by the Investigator
ORR per iwCLL criteria 2018 is defined as the percentage of participants achieving a complete response (CR), complete response with incomplete bone marrow (BM) recovery (CRi), nodular partial response (nPR) or partial response (PR). CR is defined as meeting the following criteria: no lymph nodes ≥1.5 cm, spleen size <13 cm, liver normal; no constitutional symptoms, normal lymphocyte count, platelets ≥100 x 10^9/L; hemoglobin ≥11 g/dL; and normocellular marrow (no CLL cells or B lymphoid nodules). CRi is defined as meeting CR criteria but with incomplete bone marrow recovery. nPR is defined as having features of CR but with lymphoid nodules in the marrow. PR is defined as ≥50% decrease in ≥2 of the following: lymph nodes, liver and/or spleen size, lymphocytes PLUS ≥1 of the following met: platelets ≥100 x 10^9/L or >50% increase from screening, hemoglobin ≥11 g/dL or >50% increase from screening, CLL cells or B lymphoid nodules in marrow.
ORR per International Workshop on Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia (IWWM) Criteria 2014 as Assessed by the Investigator

CR defined as EITHER CR by imaging (computed tomography [CT]): all lymph nodes normal (none ≥15 mm) and normal liver and spleen OR complete metabolic response (CMR): assessing fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) metabolic activity in lymphomatous lesions AND bone marrow normal by morphology. PR defined as EITHER PR by imaging (CT) with ≥50% decrease in the SPD of target lesions, no worsening of nontarget lesions, no new lesions and ≥50% spleen abnormal portion OR Partial Metabolic Response (PMR) with no new lesions and decreased overall uptake AND residual BM abnormalities; OR CR by imaging with residual BM abnormalities; OR PR by imaging without residual BM abnormalities.
Duration of Response (DOR) per iwCLL Criteria 2018 as Assessed by the Investigator
For participants with CR, CRi, nPR, or PR per iwCLL 2018 criteria, DOR is defined as the time from the first documented evidence of objective response until disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.

CRi is defined as meeting CR criteria but with hypocellular bone marrow. nPR is defined as having features of CR but with lymphoid nodules in the marrow. PR is defined as ≥50% decrease in ≥2 of the following: lymph nodes, liver and/or spleen size, lymphocytes PLUS ≥1 of the following met: platelets ≥100 x 10^9/L or >50% increase from screening, hemoglobin ≥11 g/dL or >50% increase from screening, CLL cells or B lymphoid nodules in marrow.
