NCT ID NCT02007044
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 03, 2026 · Updated 20 times
Summary
This study tests whether adding rituximab to ibrutinib works better than ibrutinib alone for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) that has come back after treatment. About 66 adults with relapsed CLL or related blood cancers will receive either ibrutinib alone or ibrutinib plus rituximab. The goal is to see which approach keeps the cancer from growing longer, while monitoring side effects.
