About this study
Official title: A Single-arm, Pivotal Registration Phase II Study of the Efficacy and Safety of APG-2575 Monotherapy in Relapsed or Refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of APG-2575 single agent in patients with relapsed/refractory CLL/SLL.
Read the detailed description
This is an single-arm, open-label, multi-center, pivotal registration Phase II study of efficacy and safety of APG-2575 as a single agent in relapsed/refractory CLL/SLL patients.
This study plans to enroll approximately 75 CLL/SLL subjects who have failed or are intolerant to prior immunochemotherapy and BTK inhibitor therapy. Eligible subjects will receive APG-2575 600mg, orally administered once daily (QD), within half an hour of a low-fat meal, for a cycle of 28 days. Participants will continue to accept APG - 2575 until the "end of treatment" that are consistent with the provisions in the solution of the termination of any specified standards.

Adverse events (AE) and serious adverse events (SAE) will be graded according to NCI CTCAE Version 5.0.
Measured: Up to 9 months after the last subject enrolled.
Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax)
Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) will be assessed on all participants with APG-2575 treatments.
Measured: Up to 4 cycles (each cycle is 28 days).

What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing APG2575 in people with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia and Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma, run by Ascentage Pharma Group Inc. at 11 sites in China.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Mar 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 11 sites in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
