- Overall Response Rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: Measured up to 2 years after the last participant has enrolled in the study. ]ORR is the proportion of participants with an overall response (complete remission [CR], plus complete remission with incomplete bone marrow recovery [CRi], plus nodular partial remission [nPR], plus partial remission [PR]) per the National Cancer Institute-Working Group (NCI-WG) guidelines as assessed by the Independent Review Committee (IRC).
- Complete Response Rate (CRR) [ Time Frame: Measured up to 2 years after the last participant has enrolled into the study. ]CRR is defined as the proportion of subjects who achieved (CR + CRi) per the 2008 Modified iwCLL NCI-WG criteria.
- Duration of Overall Response (DOR) [ Time Frame: Measured up to 2 years after the last participant has enrolled into the study. ]DOR is defined as the number of days from the date of first (CR + CRi + nPR + PR) to the earliest disease progression or death
- Progression Free Survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: Measured up to 5 years after the last participant has enrolled into the study. ]PFS is defined as the number of days from the date of first dose to the date of earliest disease progression (determined by the IRC) or death.
- Event Free Survival (EFS) [ Time Frame: Measured up to 2 years after the last participant has enrolled into the study. ]EFS is defined as the number of days from the date of first dose to the date of earliest disease progression, death, or start of a new anti-leukemic therapy.
- Time to Progression (TTP) [ Time Frame: Measured up to 5 years after the last participant has enrolled into the study. ]TTP is defined as the number of days from the date of first dose to the date of earliest disease progression (determined by the IRC).
- Time to 50% reduction in absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) [ Time Frame: Measured up to 2 years after the last participant has enrolled into the study. ]Time to 50% reduction in ALC is defined as the number of days (hours if applicable) from the date of first dose to the date when the ALC has reduced to 50% of the baseline value
- Overall Survival (OS) [ Time Frame: Measured up to 5 years after the last participant has enrolled into the study. ]OS is defined as number of days from the date of first dose to the date of death.
- Percent of participants who move on to stem cell transplant [ Time Frame: Measured up to 2 years after the last participant has enrolled into the study. ]
