Inclusion Criteria:

Histopathology has to be perfomed before randomization but within the last 4 months before start of treatment. In addition, pathological specimens have to be sent to the national pathological reference center prior to randomization for the determination of the mutational status of MYD88 and CXCR4 prior to randomization if the mutational status hasn't been determined before. Pathological reference center must confirm the diagnosis of WM.
