Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Cohort BExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
If participants test positive for MRD at the 24 month time point, participants will be in Cohort B and the participant will continue taking pirtobrutinib.
Group II: Cohort AExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
If participants show that they have no MRD, participants will be in Cohort A and will stop taking pirtobrutinib. Participants will continue to be observed and tested for MRD, and participants will be able to continue receiving the drug if you test positive.
