PD was assessed by an IRC according to the modified response criteria for indolent Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (iNHL) (Modified Cheson et al, 2007). PD was defined as appearance of any new lesion more than 1.5 centimeters (cm) in any axis during or at the end of therapy, even if other lesions are decreasing in size; at least a 50 percent (%) increase from nadir in the sum of product diameter (SPD) of any previously involved nodes, or in a single involved node, or the size of other lesions (example: splenic or hepatic nodules). To be considered PD, a lymph node with a diameter of the short axis of less than (\<) 1.0 cm must increase by greater than or equal to (≥) 50% and to a size of 1.5 multiplied by 1.5 cm or more than 1.5 cm in the long axis; at least a 50% increase in the longest diameter of any single previously identified node greater than (\>) 1 cm in its short axis.

PFS was defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of PD or death as assessed by an IRC according to the modified response criteria for iNHL (Modified Cheson et al, 2007).

To be PD, a lymph node with a diameter of the short axis of \<1.0 cm must increase by ≥ 50% and to a size of 1.5 multiplied by 1.5 cm or more than 1.5 cm in the long axis; at least a 50% increase in the longest diameter of any single previously identified node \>1 cm in its short axis. PFS was estimated using Kaplan-Meier method and 95% confidence interval (CI) for median was computed using the method of Brookmeyer and Crowley.

Scoring formula developed by EuroQoL Group assigns a utility value for each domain in the profile. Score is transformed and results in a total score range -0.594 to 1.000; higher score indicates a better health state. In timeframe, follow-up months represents months after end of induction (e.g. Follow-up Month 2 is 2 months after end of induction). For 'Obinutuzumab + Bendamustine' arm, participants who had their follow-up Month 2 and 4 visits before start of maintenance treatment were reported in induction phase results under "CFB at Follow-up Month 2" and "CFB at Follow-up Month 4" categories.

CFB in EuroQol 5D (EQ-5D) - Health State Profile Utility Score During Maintenance PhaseBaseline, Follow-up Months 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, Final follow-up (up to 2 years after end of induction) (End of induction = up to Month 6)

EQ-5D: participant rated questionnaire to assess health-related quality of life in terms of a single utility score. Health State Profile component assesses level of current health for 5 domains: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain and discomfort, and anxiety and depression; 1 indicates better health state (no problems); 3 indicates worst health state ("confined to bed"). Scoring formula developed by EuroQoL Group assigns a utility value for each domain in the profile. Score is transformed and results in a total score range -0.594 to 1.000; higher score indicates a better health state. Data for this outcome was planned to be reported only for 'Obinutuzumab + Bendamustine' arm. In timeframe, follow-up months represents months after end of induction (e.g. Follow-up Month 2 is 2 months after end of induction). Follow-up months were during maintenance phase.

CFB in EQ-5D Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Score During Induction PhaseBaseline, Day 1 of Cycles 3, 4, 5, End of induction treatment (up to Month 6); Follow-up Months 2, 4 and 14

EQ-5D: participant rated questionnaire to assess health-related quality of life in terms of a single index value. The VAS component rates current health state on a scale from 0 millimeter (mm) (worst imaginable health state) to 100 mm (best imaginable health state); higher scores indicate a better health state. In timeframe, follow-up months represents months after end of induction (e.g. Follow-up Month 2 is 2 months after end of induction). For 'Obinutuzumab + Bendamustine' arm, participants who had their follow-up Month 2 and 4 visits before start of maintenance treatment were reported in induction phase results under "CFB at Follow-up Month 2" and "CFB at Follow-up Month 4" categories.

CFB in EQ-5D VAS Score During Maintenance PhaseBaseline, Follow-up Months 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, Final Follow-up (up to 2 years after end of induction) (end of induction = up to Month 6)

EQ-5D: participant rated questionnaire to assess health-related quality of life in terms of a single index value. The VAS component rates current health state on a scale from 0 mm (worst imaginable health state) to 100 mm (best imaginable health state); higher scores indicate a better health state. Data for this outcome was planned to be reported only for 'Obinutuzumab + Bendamustine' arm. In timeframe, follow-up months represents months after end of induction (e.g. Follow-up Month 2 is 2 months after end of induction). Follow-up months were during maintenance phase.

CFB in Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Generic (FACT-G) ScoreBaseline, Day 1 of Cycles 3, 4, 5, End of induction treatment (up to Month 6); Follow-up Months 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, Final Follow-up (up to 2 years after end of induction); Extension follow-up Months 6, 18 and 24

The FACT-G is the sum of 4 sub-scales (physical, social, emotional and functional well-being) of FACT-Lym which includes total 27 items; responses to each item range from 0, "Not at all" to 4, "Very much". Total score ranges from 0-108. Higher scores indicate a better PRO/QoL. In timeframe, follow-up months represents months after end of induction (e.g. Follow-up Month 2 is 2 months after end of induction) and extension follow-up months represents months after end of 2 years normal follow-up (e.g. extension follow-up Month 6 is 6 months after end of normal 2 year follow-up).

CFB in FACT-Lym Trial Outcome Index (TOI)Baseline, Day 1 of Cycles 3, 4, 5, End of induction treatment (up to Month 6); Follow-up Months 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, Final Follow-up (up to 2 years after end of induction); Extension follow-up Months 6, 18 and 24

TOI is the sum of 3 sub-scales (physical well-being, functional well-being, and Lymphoma sub-scale) of FACT-Lym which includes total 29 items; responses to each item range from 0, "Not at all" to 4, "Very much". Total score ranges from 0-116. Higher scores indicate a better PRO/QoL. In timeframe, follow-up months represents months after end of induction (e.g. Follow-up Month 2 is 2 months after end of induction) and extension follow-up months represents months after end of 2 years normal follow-up (e.g. extension follow-up Month 6 is 6 months after end of normal 2 year follow-up).

CFB in FACT-Lym Total ScoreBaseline, Day 1 of Cycles 3, 4, 5, End of induction treatment (up to Month 6); Follow-up Months 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, Final Follow-up (up to 2 years after end of induction); Extension follow-up Months 6, 18 and 24

FACT-Lym total score is the sum of physical well-being score (7 items), social/family well-being (7 items), emotional well-being (6 items), functional well-being (7 items), and Lymphoma sub-scale (15 items); responses to each item range from 0, "Not at all" to 4, "Very much". Total score ranges from 0-168. Higher scores indicate a better PRO/QoL. In timeframe, follow-up months represents months after end of induction (e.g. Follow-up Month 2 is 2 months after end of induction) and extension follow-up months represents months after end of 2 years normal follow-up (e.g. extension follow-up Month 6 is 6 months after end of normal 2 year follow-up).

Time to Deterioration of FACT-Lym TOIBaseline up to approximately 8.5 years

The median time, in month, from date of randomization until a clinically meaningful decline from baseline in TOI or death, whichever occurred first. TOI: sum of physical well-being score,functional well-being score, and Lymphoma sub-scale of FACT-Lym; total 29 items, responses to each item range from 0, "Not at all" to 4, "Very much". Total score ranges from 0-116. Higher scores indicate a better PRO/QoL. A clinically meaningful decline in TOI score was defined as at least a 6 point decline from baseline. Time to deterioration was estimated using Kaplan-Meier method and 95% CI for median was computed using the method of Brookmeyer and Crowley. In timeframe, follow-up months represents months after end of induction (EOI) (e.g. Follow-up Month 2 is 2 months after end of induction) and extension follow-up months represents months after end of 2 years normal follow-up (e.g. extension follow-up Month 6 is 6 months after end of normal 2 year follow-up).
