Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Overall Response Rate (ORR) as Determined by Investigator Assessment
ORR is percentage of participants with partial response (PR) or higher, (defined as Complete response/ Complete response with incomplete bone marrow recovery (CR/CRi) + PR + nodular PR) per investigator assessment using the "modified" 2008 International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (IWCLL) guidelines with modification for treatment-related lymphocytosis for participants with CLL and per Lugano Classification for non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL)) for participants with Small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL)
ORR as Determined by Independent Review Committee (IRC)
ORR is the percentage of participants with PR or higher, (CR/CRi) + PR + nodular PR per IRC assessment using the "modified" 2008 IWCLL guidelines with modification for treatment-related lymphocytosis for participants with CLL and per Lugano Classification for NHL for participants with SLL

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study is designed to compare the overall response rate of zanubrutinib versus ibrutinib in participants with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma.
Detailed Description
This is a global, Phase 3, randomized study of zanubrutinib versus ibrutinib in 652 participants with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma. The primary efficacy endpoint is overall response rate determined by investigator assessment. Participants were randomized in a 1:1 manner to either zanubrutinib or ibrutinib. Treatment with zanubrutinib and ibrutinib was open label.
