Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Arm 2
Experimental
Active Comparator
Treatment Arm A: Ibrutinib and Venetoclax (I+VEN)
Treatment Arm B: Chlorambucil and Obinutuzumab (G-Clb)
Participants will initially receive ibrutinib (420 mg [milligrams]/day) for 3 cycles. Venetoclax dose ramp up (from 20 to 400 mg over 5 weeks) will begin at Cycle 4 and the combination of ibrutinib and venetoclax will be given for 12 cycles (each cycle is equivalent to 28 days). Participants who subsequently develop progressive disease may enter to Subsequent Therapy Phase to receive single-agent ibrutinib until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Participants will receive chlorambucil and obinutuzumab (G-Clb) for 6 cycles. Participants will receive obinutuzumab, 1000 mg intravenously (IV) on Days 1, 8 and 15 of Cycle 1, and on Day 1 of Cycles 2 to 6 and chlorambucil 0.5 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) body weight, on Days 1 and 15 of Cycles 1 to 6. Participants who subsequently develop progressive disease may enter to Subsequent Therapy Phase to receive single-agent ibrutinib until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
