If a patient decides to take part in this study, the patient will get 3 months of treatment with methotrexate and ibrutinib as well as rituximab (if rituximab is given for PCNSL in the applicable province). This will be followed by treatment with ibrutinib alone for up to 2 years of total treatment time. After finishing study treatment, and even if patients stop treatment early, the study doctor will continue to follow the patient's condition for the rest of their life or until all study results are known (in approximately 6 years), watch for side effects and keep track of the patient's health. If there are any side effects that may be related to ibrutinib, the patient will be asked to come back to the clinic every 3 months until side effects improve. If there are no side effects from ibrutinib the patient will be asked to come back to clinic every 6 months until cancer worsens, and then every 6 months may be contacted by phone.
