ArmTypeInterventionsDescription
Safety Run-inExperimentalDrug: Ibrutinib; Drug: VenetoclaxParticipants with a low or high risk of TLS enroll into the open-label Safety Run-in Period to receive concurrent ibrutinib at 560 mg once daily and venetoclax starting at 20 mg, and gradually ramp up to a target dose of 400 mg once daily over a 5-week period.
Randomization Phase: Ibrutinb + VenetoclaxExperimentalDrug: Ibrutinib; Drug: VenetoclaxParticipants randomized to ibrutinib and venetoclax for approximately 104 weeks, followed by ibrutinib monotherapy until disease progression (PD), unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent. Venetoclax is discontinued after 104 weeks of treatment, regardless of response assessment.
