Eligibility

Recruits 129 Vulnerable population is selected. Participants are adults (≥18 years) with relapsed/refractory indolent B-cell NHL. Informed consent requirement: 'Provide written (signed and dated) informed consent.' Subject information and consent forms are available in country-specific languages (German and Spanish are present among published ICF documents). No specific assent/parental consent procedures or additional protections for other vulnerable groups are described in the available data..

Pregnancy Exclusion
