Such patients must be willing to modify HIV therapy while on-treatment and during applicable wash-out periods, as needed, to address drug-drug interactions
• Willing and able to participate in all required evaluations and procedures in this protocol including swallowing capsules without difficulty
• Persons of childbearing potential (PCBP): Persons of childbearing potential must have a negative serum (beta-human chorionic gonadotropin \[b-hCG\]) or urine pregnancy test at Screening and be willing to use approved contraception while on treatment and for the longest following, applicable time period: 18 months after the last dose of obinutuzumab, 2 months after the last dose of glofitamab, 3 months for tocilizumab, or 1 month after the last dose of ibrutinib. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding are ineligible for this study
• Persons that produce viable sperm: Willingness to use approved contraception while on-treatment and for the longest applicable time period following: 6 months after the last dose of obinutuzumab or 2 months after the last dose of glofitamab, tocilizumab, or ibrutinib
• Willingness to not breastfeed or donate ova or sperm: If obinutuzumab was the last study drug received, the participant must wait for 6 months. Otherwise, patients must agree to wait 3 months for sperm and 1 month for ova donations (and to breastfeed) after the last dose other study drugs
• The effects of GLIB on the developing human fetus are unknown. Should a participant or participant's sexual partner become pregnant or suspect a pregnancy while participating in this study, the individual should inform their treating physician immediately Exclusion Criteria:
• Previous MCL-directed treatment. Treatment with corticosteroids (up to 20 mg dexamethasone or equivalent daily) is allowed prior to and during the screening period for patients with aggressive clinical behavior. All steroids used for disease control must be discontinued within 7 days before starting study treatment except for doses ≤ 20 mg per day of prednisone or equivalent. Ongoing steroids as premedications or for cytokine release syndrome (CRS) management are allowed on study

• History of prior malignancy except for the following:
• Malignancy treated with curative intent and with no evidence of active disease present for more than 2 years before screening and felt to be at low risk for recurrence by treating physician
• Persons with low grade prostate cancer on a watch and wait strategy are eligible
• Adequately treated lentigo maligna melanoma without current evidence of disease or adequately controlled nonmelanomatous skin cancer
• Adequately treated carcinoma in situ without current evidence of disease
• Ongoing hormonal therapy alone for prior malignancy is allowed
• Concurrent use of cytotoxic chemotherapy; radiotherapy; immunotherapy; hormone therapy (other than contraceptives, hormone-replacement therapy, or megestrol acetate); and biologic agents (other than hematopoietic growth factors, if clinically indicated and used in accordance with manufacture and Investigator recommendations), unless approved by the investigator
• Received systemic immunosuppressive medications (e.g., cyclophosphamide, azathioprine, methotrexate, thalidomide, and anti-tumor necrosis factor agents) within 2 weeks prior to obinutuzumab infusion with the exception of those described

Patients with a remote history of, or well controlled, autoimmune disease may be eligible to enroll after consultation with the primary investigator
