Summary

This study tests whether combining zanubrutinib (a pill that blocks cancer cell growth) with rituximab (an antibody infusion) can help people with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) achieve a lasting remission without needing ongoing medication. About 60 adults with CLL or small lymphocytic lymphoma will receive the combination, then stop zanubrutinib to see if they stay in remission for at least 6 months. The goal is to control the disease and possibly allow a treatment-free period.
