Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: ObinutuzumabExperimental Treatment6 Interventions
Participants will be randomized into 2 groups. Group 1 will receive obinutuzumab 1000 mg IV at baseline and Weeks 2, 24, 26, 50, and 52 plus MMF and oral prednisone. Group 2 receive obinutuzumab 1000 mg IV at baseline and Weeks 2, 24, 26, and 52 plus MMF and oral prednisone. Group 2 participants will receive a placebo infusion at their Week 50 visit. Participants with an adequate response at Week 76 will continue receiving blinded obinutuzumab infusions every 6 months starting at Week 80. Participants without an adequate response at Week 76 may be eligible for open-label obinutuzumab starting at Week 80.
Group II: PlaceboPlacebo Group7 Interventions
Placebo participants will receive obinutuzumab matched placebo at baseline and Weeks 2, 24, 26, 50, and 52 plus MMF and oral prednisone. Participants with an adequate response at Week 76 will continue receiving blinded obinutuzumab infusions every 6 months starting at Week 80. Participants without an adequate response at Week 76 may be eligible for open-label obinutuzumab starting at Week 80.
