a phase ia clinical study of qlf31907 injection in patients with advanced malignant tumors

Conditions: Solid Tumor; Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin

Summary: this study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of qlf31907 injection, to identify the maximum tolerated dose (mtd) and dose-limiting toxicity(dlt), and determine the recommended phase ib dose(rpibd) and recommended phase ii dose (rp2d)in patients with advanced malignant tumors.
