There was a median time of response at Month 5.5 (participants were followed for up to 24 months). | Based on OR over a 6-month period from start of treatment, participants were classified as responders/non-responders as follows: participants with CR, CRu, or PR were classified as responders, whereas participants with Stable Disease (SD; achieving less than PR but not consistent with PD), Progressive Disease (PD; 50% increase from nadir in the products of the greatest perpendicular diameters of any previously identified node or appearance of any new node \>1 cm), or Not Evaluable (NE) participants were classified as non-responders. |

CT scans with contrast of the neck, thorax, abdomen, and pelvis were performed at Screening and during the follow-up period (Month 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24). The change in tumor size from Screening (Visit 1) was presented per Radiologist 1 (R1) and Radiologist 2 (R2).

Overall Survival
Overall survival is defined as the time from randomization until death. For participants who are lost to follow-up, overall survival will be censored at the date of the last attended visit at which the endpoint was assessed.
Time frame: First dose (Week 0) until 5 years
Population: FAS. As of the time of data cut-off, data for Overall Survival was not estimable because too few deaths have occurred at the time of study completion.

Percent Change From Baseline (Visit 2) in CD19+ and CD20+ Cells in Peripheral Blood at Visits 11 and 12
CD19 and CD20 are proteins found on the cell surface of B cells, and they can be detected in peripheral blood by flow cytometry. Flow cytometry of peripheral blood was performed for immediate analysis of cells with cluster of differentiation 19 (CD19+) and CD20+. The analysis will be done until a value is reached that is in the normal range. Percent change from Baseline (Visit 2) = (value at Visits 11 and 12 minus the value at Visit 2 divided by the value at Visit 2) \* 100.
Time frame: Visits 2 (Baseline), 11 (Month 3), and 12 (Month 6)

Percent Change From Screening (Visit 1) in Tumor Size as Assessed by Radiologist 1 (R1) and Radiologist 2 (R2) at Months 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24
Tumor size was measured by computed tomography (CT) scan and was computed as the sum of product of diameters (SPD) for the indicator lesions. CT scans with contrast of the neck, thorax, abdomen, and pelvis were performed at Screening and during the follow-up period (Month 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24). The change in tumor size from Screening (Visit 1) was presented per Radiologist 1 (R1) and Radiologist 2 (R2). Percent change from Screening (Visit 1, Week -2) = (value at Visits 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, and 18 minus the value at Visit 1 divided by the value at Visit 1) \* 100.
