The NAVIGATE study has been terminated due to non-safety related reasons.

This randomized, open-label, multicenter study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of navitoclax in addition to bendamustine and rituximab in patients with relapsed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Patients will be randomized to receive navitoclax in addition to bendamustine and rituximab or bendamustine and rituximab alone for 6 cycles.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Histologically documented diagnosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
• Patients must have relapsed or developed progressive disease following salvage therapy, or must have relapsed or progressed following initial therapy and in the opinion of the investigator are medically unfit to receive high dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplant (SCT) or other salvage therapy of higher priority
• Eastern cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0, 1 or 2
• Patients who have undergone STC must be more than 100 days from autologous stem cell infusion prior to first dose of study drug, must have recovered from any transplant related toxicity and must have adequate bone marrow function as defined by protocol independent of any growth factor support
• Patients who have not undergone SCT must have adequate bone marrow function as defined by protocol independent of any growth factor support
• Adequate coagulation, renal and hepatic function
