Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy and tolerability of the combination of two medicinal products, rituximab, and zanubrutinib, compared to rituximab monotherapy in patients with Splenic Marginal Zone Lymphoma (SMZL), previously untreated and who need systemic treatment.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Is the combination rituximab and zanubrutinib a more effective therapy than rituximab monotherapy?
* Is the combination therapy, rituximab and zanubrutinib, well tolerated?

Study participants will be put into one of the two treatment groups (rituximab and zanubrutinib or rituximab alone) for a maximum of two years and will undergo regular visits until three years from treatment start.
