*

Complex karyotype data were reported by the investigator; data were not available for 42 patients in the ibrutinib arm and 49 patients in ofatumumab arm. Complex karyotype was defined as ≥3 cytogenetic abnormalities based on karyotyping (conventional cytogenetics) by local laboratories and did not require routine stimulation.

IGHV mutation status was assessed by a central laboratory; data were not available for 61 patients in ibrutinib arm and 63 patients in ofatumumab arm.

Data were not available for 41 patients in the ibrutinib arm and 47 patients in the ofatumumab arm.

§

CLL-IPI risk group was determined for patients with data available for all 5 variables (age, clinical stage, del(17p)(13.1) and/or TP53 mutation status, IGHV mutation status, and B2M level); for patients with known del(17p)(13.1) status but unknown (missing) TP53 mutation status, grading for this variable was determined based on del(17p)(13.1) status.
