About the study

This open-label, multicenter, randomized Phase III study is designed to compare the efficacy and safety of a combined regimen of obinutuzumab and venetoclax versus obinutuzumab + chlorambucil in participants with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and coexisting medical conditions.
