Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study is prospective, open-label, single arm observational study to assess efficacy of obinutuzumab plus chlorambucil (GC) chemotherapy in treatment naïve CLL, and prognostic impact of genetic alterations for CLL using NGS.

Experimental: GC chemotherapy Before administration of GC chemotherapy, all patients must undergo pretreatment bone marrow biopsy. The pretreatment BM biopsy must include at least 1 long core biopsy samples and 10 cc of aspirate. Obinutuzumab 1000mg fixed dose will be administered intravenously (Day 1,8,15 for cycle 1 and D1 for subsequent cycles). Chlorambucil 0.5mg/kg will be administered orally (D1,15 for all cycles). 28 days are considered as one cycle, and cycles will be repeated every 4-weeks for a total of 6 cycles. |
Drug: Obinutuzumab
Obinutuzumab is provided as single-use vials for intravenous administration only. Obinutuzumab 1000mg fixed dose will be administered Chlorambucil would be provided as oral tablet with dose of 0.5mg/kg
Day 1 to day 28 is considered one cycle, and cycles will be repeated every 4-weeks, until 6 cycles.
