June 4, 2026 updated by: Janssen Research & Development, LLC

Multicohort Study to Customize Ibrutinib Treatment Regimens for Patients With Previously Untreated Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ibrutinib + venetoclax (I+V) and ibrutinib monotherapy regimens in which dosing of ibrutinib is either proactively reduced or reactively modified in response to adverse events (AEs).

Experimental: Cohort 1b: Ibrutinib Lead-in+Fixed Duration Ibrutinib+Venetoclax
Participants will receive ibrutinib 420 mg capsule QD for a lead-in of 3 cycles (1 cycle = 28 days). From Cycle 4, venetoclax 400 mg tablet dose ramp-up (from 20 to 400 mg over 5 weeks) will begin and ibrutinib dose will be reduced to 280 mg and will be administered QD, venetoclax 400 mg tablets QD will be administered with ibrutinib 280 mg for 12 cycles through Cycle 15.
Ibrutinib capsules will be administered orally.
Other Names:
  • JNJ-54179060, IMBRUVICA
Venetoclax tablets will be administered orally.
Other Names:
  • VENCLEXTA, VENCLYXTO
Experimental: Cohort 2a: Continuous Ibrutinib Monotherapy
Participants will receive ibrutinib 420 mg QD (or last tolerated dose) until disease progression (PD) or unacceptable toxicity.
Ibrutinib capsules will be administered orally.
Other Names:
  • JNJ-54179060, IMBRUVICA
Experimental: Cohort 2b: Continuous Ibrutinib Monotherapy
Participants will receive ibrutinib 420 mg QD for 1 cycle (1 cycle = 28 days) followed by Ibrutinib 280 mg QD (or last tolerated dose) and continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Best Overall Response Rate (ORR)
Time Frame: Up to 5 years
Best ORR is defined as the percentage of participants who achieve complete remission (CR), complete remission with an incomplete marrow recovery (CRi), nodular partial remission (nPR), or partial remission (PR) per International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (iwCLL) 2018 criteria as assessed by investigator.
Up to 5 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Complete Response (CR) Rate
Time Frame: Up to 5 years
CR rate is defined as the percentage of participants achieving a best overall response of CR or CRi per iwCLL 2018 criteria as assessed by investigator.
Up to 5 years
Duration of Response (DOR)
Time Frame: Up to 5 years
DOR is defined as the duration in days from the date of initial documentation of PR or better to the date of first documented evidence of PD or death.
Up to 5 years
Progression Free Survival (PFS)
Time Frame: Up to 5 years
PFS by investigator assessment is defined as the duration from date of randomization to date of PD or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.
Up to 5 years
Overall Survival (OS)
Time Frame: Up to 5 years
OS is defined as the time from date of randomization to date of death from any cause.
Up to 5 years
Cohorts 1a and 1b: Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Negative Rate
Time Frame: Up to 5 years
MRD-negative rate is defined as the percentage of participants who reach MRD-negative status (that is, less than [<] 1 chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cell per 10,000 leukocytes or <0.01 percentage [%]) in the peripheral blood.
Up to 5 years

Number of Participants with AEs by Severity
Time Frame: Up to 5 years
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered a pharmaceutical (investigational or non-investigational) product.
