Venetoclax + RituximabExperimentalParticipants will be initially placed in a venetoclax 5 weeks ramp-up period, and will be administered an initial 20 mg oral tablet dose once daily (QD), incrementing weekly up to a maximum dose of 400 mg. Participants will then continue taking venetoclax 400 mg QD from Week 5 onwards, as directed by the investigator in combination with rituximab 375 mg/m^2 IV on Day 1 of Cycle 1 followed by 13.4 mL of rituximab SC 1,600 mg/26,800 Units vial (1,600 mg rituximab and 26,800 Units hyaluronidase human) on Day 1 of Cycle 2-6.
