Brief Summary:
The aim of the current trial is to evaluate if combination treatment with venetoclax + ibrutinib in patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (RR CLL) can lead to MRD negativity, which may induce long lasting remissions for MRD-negative patients randomized to stopping treatment after 15 induction cycles.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia in Relapse Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia in Remission Drug: Ibrutinib + Venetoclax 15 cycles Drug: Ibrutinib until progression/relapse Drug: Possible reinitiation treatment: Ibrutinib + Venetoclax 12 cycles Phase 2

Study Type : Interventional  (Clinical Trial)
Estimated Enrollment : 230 participants
Allocation: Randomized
Intervention Model: Crossover Assignment
Intervention Model Description: All patients receive ibrutinib + venetoclax (with delayed start and ramp up of venetoclax from cycle 3) for the 15 cycles. Patients not achieving MRD negativity after cycle 12 (PB) AND/OR cycle 15 (PB+BM) continue on ibrutinib maintenance (non-randomized group). Patients achieving MRD negativity after cycle 12 (PB) AND cycle 15 (PB+BM) are randomized 1:2 between ibrutinib maintenance (arm A) and stopping treatment (observation, arm B).
