Brief summary

This open-label, multicenter, global study is designed to assess the safety, tolerability, preliminary efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of intravenous atezolizumab (MPDL3280A) and obinutuzumab in participants with refractory or relapsed follicular lymphoma (FL) or atezolizumab and obinutuzumab or tazemetostat administered in participants with refractory or relapsed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). The anticipated duration of this study is approximately 4.5 years.

Interventions

DRUGAtezolizumab

During safety evaluation stage, atezolizumab will be administered as 1200 milligrams (mg) intravenous (IV) infusion. During expansion stage, atezolizumab will be administered as either 1200 mg IV infusion or at dose decided from safety evaluation stage.

DRUGObinutuzumab

During safety evaluation stage, obinutuzumab will be administered as 1000 mg IV infusion. During expansion stage, obinutuzumab will be administered as either 1000 mg IV infusion or at dose decided from safety evaluation stage.

DRUGTazemetostat

Tazemetostat 800 mg will be administered orally, twice daily, on Days 1 to 21.
