A Study of Orelabrutinib Plus R-CHOP in Treatment-naïve Patients With MCD Subtype Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of orelabrutinib combined with R-CHOP regimen versus placebo with R-CHOP in the treatment of treatment-naïve patients with MCD subtype DLBCL.
