Participant gender:
All
Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, PK characteristics in subjects with relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphoma. Furthermore, the relationship between the exposure level of Keynatinib and its efficacy and safety, the penetration rate of keynatinib in the Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) and its PK characteristics in cerebrospinal fluid in R/R-PCNSL patients, the relationship between the BTK receptor occupancy rate and the efficacy are also evaluated.
