After debulking, obinutuzumab (1000 mg) was administered via intravenous infusion on Day 1 of one 5-week and four 4-week cycles during the obinutuzumab/venetoclax combination part of the regimen. Venetoclax was administered according to a weekly ramp-up schedule over 5 weeks to the recommended daily dose of 400 mg. |
Administered via intravenous infusion
Other Names:
The venetoclax dose was administered according to a weekly ramp-up schedule over 5 weeks to the recommended daily dose of 400 mg.
Participants were instructed to take venetoclax tablets with a meal and water at approximately the same time each day.
Venetoclax tablets were to be swallowed whole and not chewed, crushed, or broken prior to swallowing.

Bendamustine (90 mg/m^2 ) was to be administered to those with nodes or nodal mass > 10 cm, or with del(11q) and > 5 cm nodes, or at the discretion of the investigator as above, via intravenous infusion over 10 minutes on Days 1 and 2 (or Days 2 and 3 at the discretion of the investigator during Cycle 1) of each 28-day cycle for up to 6 cycles during the debulking regimen. After debulking, obinutuzumab (1000 mg) was administered via intravenous infusion on Day 1 of one 5-week and four 4-week cycles during the obinutuzumab/venetoclax combination part of the regimen. Venetoclax was administered according to a weekly ramp-up schedule over 5 weeks to the recommended daily dose of 400 mg. |

Percentage of Participants Achieving Low Tumor Burden Status With Induction of Obinutuzumab or Obinutuzumab Plus Bendamustine (Debulking Period)
Time Frame: From Baseline to the end of Cycles 2, 4, and 6, up to approximately 24 weeks after initial dose of study drug
|
Low tumor burden is defined as absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) < 25 × 10^9 /L and all lymph nodes < 5 cm per computed tomography (CT) scans.
|
From Baseline to the end of Cycles 2, 4, and 6, up to approximately 24 weeks after initial dose of study drug
|

Time Frame: From first dose of study drug until the last participant completed Week 65 assessments (data cut-off date of 13 October 2021); overall median time on follow-up was up to 787 days
|
Complete response rate is defined as the percentage of participants achieving complete remission (CR) or complete remission with incomplete marrow recovery (CRi) as their best response based on 2008 Modified International Workshop for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia National Cancer Institute-Working Group (IWCLL NCI-WG) criteria. CR required all of the following:
CRi was defined as participants with CR who had persistent cytopenia unrelated to CLL but related to drug toxicity. |
From first dose of study drug until the last participant completed Week 65 assessments (data cut-off date of 13 October 2021); overall median time on follow-up was up to 787 days
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Overall Response Rate (ORR)
Time Frame: From first dose of study drug until the last participant completed Week 65 assessments (data cut-off date of 13 October 2021); overall median time on follow-up was up to 787 days
|
ORR is defined as the percentage of participants who achieved a best response of complete remission (CR), complete remission with incomplete marrow recovery (CRi), nodular partial remission (nPR), or partial remission (PR) based on the 2008 Modified IWCLL NCI-WG criteria at any time during the study as assessed by investigator up through the completion of the 65-week disease response assessment after the start of venetoclax.
Participants who did not respond were considered non-responders.
|
From first dose of study drug until the last participant completed Week 65 assessments (data cut-off date of 13 October 2021); overall median time on follow-up was up to 787 days
|
Duration of Response (DoR)
Time Frame: From first dose of study drug until the last participant completed Week 65 assessments (data cut-off date of 13 October 2021); overall median time on follow-up was up to 787 days
|
DoR is defined as the number of days from the date of first response (CR, CRi, nPR, or PR per the 2008 Modified IWCLL NCI-WG criteria) to the date of disease progression or death, whichever occurs first.
All disease progression was to be included regardless whether the event occurred during or after the participant was taking any study drug (either venetoclax, obinutuzumab, or bendamustine).
Duration of response was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier (K-M) methodology.
|
From first dose of study drug until the last participant completed Week 65 assessments (data cut-off date of 13 October 2021); overall median time on follow-up was up to 787 days

|
PFS is defined as the number of days from the date of first dose of any study drug (either venetoclax, obinutuzumab, or bendamustine) to the date of disease progression or death, whichever occurs first.
All disease progression was to be included regardless whether the event occurred during or after the participant was taking any study drug.
Progression-free survival was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier methodology.
|

|
TTP is defined as the number of days from the date of first dose of any study drug (either venetoclax, obinutuzumab, or bendamustine) to date of disease progression.
All disease progression was to be included regardless of whether the event occurred during or after the participant was taking any study drug.The distribution of the time to progression was estimated using Kaplan-Meier methodology.
|
From first dose of study drug until the last participant completed Week 65 assessments (data cut-off date of 13 October 2021); overall median time on follow-up was up to 787 days
|
Overall Survival (OS)
Time Frame: From first dose of study drug until the last participant completed Week 65 assessments (data cut-off date of 13 October 2021); overall median time on follow-up was up to 787 days
|
OS is defined as number of days from the date of first dose of any study drug (either venetoclax, obinutuzumab, or bendamustine) to the date of death.
If a participant had not died, their data was censored at the date when they were last known to be alive prior to the cutoff date.The distribution of OS was estimated using Kaplan-Meier methodology.
|
From first dose of study drug until the last participant completed Week 65 assessments (data cut-off date of 13 October 2021); overall median time on follow-up was up to 787 days
|
Undetectable Minimal Residual Disease (UMRD) Rate
Time Frame: From first dose of study drug until the last participant completed Week 65 assessments (data cut-off date of 13 October 2021)
|
The level of MRD was assessed in the peripheral blood of all participants at 5 months after last dose of obinutuzumab, and at 3 months after last dose of venetoclax/end of treatment (including early study termination) to determine the rate of UMRD.
Undetectable Minimal Residual Disease is defined as less than one CLL cell per 10,000 leukocytes (< 10^-4 ).
|
From first dose of study drug until the last participant completed Week 65 assessments (data cut-off date of 13 October 2021)
