registration

- Invasive surgical procedure within 28 days prior to study pre-registration
- History of clinically severe (e.g., requires chronic immunosuppressive therapy, [e.g.,
cyclosporine A, tacrolimus]) autoimmune disease (e.g., ulcerative colitis, lupus), or
history of organ transplant

hepatitis B virus or hepatitis C virus, or any uncontrolled active systemic infection
- Gastrointestinal disease that might inhibit ibrutinib absorption (e.g., malabsorption
syndrome, resection of the stomach or a large portion of small bowel, or
partial/complete bowel obstruction), or unable to swallow capsules

pre-registration

prescribed regimens
