Brief summary: This is an open-label, Phase II interventional study in order to assess efficacy and safety of single agent ublituximab as initial therapy for FL (Follicular lymphoma) and MZL (Marginal zone lymphoma ) with response driven addition of umbralisib for suboptimal response.

Detailed description: Based on overall reporting in low tumor burden FL and MZL, CR rate of at least 30% was achieved when single agent rituximab was used in these subsets. The investigators assume that by administering ublituximab (both as a single agent and in combination with umbralisib for individuals who fail to achieve a CR \[Complete response\] with the single agent), the CR rate will increase to 50%. Efficacy will be assessed using the proportion of patients treated with ublituximab alone or with ublituximab administered in combination who have a complete response. Thus, the investigators will test the efficacy of ublituximab using a difference in proportions design by comparing an expected study population control rate of 50% to the comparison proportion being determined by the historical control CR rate of 30%. In other words, the null hypothesis is that the true response rate is 30%, and it will be formally tested against a one-sided alternative that the response rate is 50%.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

Disease Related

2. Ann Arbor Stage II (Non-contiguous), III or IV disease
3. Patients must have a whole body or limited whole body PET/CT scan performed within 42 days prior to registration. CT portion of PET/CT will be done with contrast based on current NCCN guidelines unless patient has borderline renal function or allergic to contrast dye.

6. For low tumor burden lymphomas (as determined by GELF criteria) : Include patients diagnosed within 2 years of diagnosis. Low tumor burden patients diagnosed more than 2 years from study entry will be allowed provided patients have documented progression.

Prior Therapy Criteria

1. Patients must be untreated advanced stage disease (Stage III or Stage IV) or Stage II (noncontiguous). (Exception: Involved field or involved site radiation given for localized diagnosis is not considered a line of therapy).

Clinical/Laboratory Criteria

1. Patients must be ≥ 18 years of age and be able to swallow and retain oral medication
2. ECOG performance status of 0-2
3. Patients must have adequate bone marrow function as evidenced by ANC ≥ 1000/µL and platelets ≥ 50,000µL and Hb \>= 8g/dl within 28 days prior to registration unsupported by growth factors.

5. Patients must have adequate hepatic function obtained within 28 days prior to registration and documented by all of the following:

   * Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x IULN (≤ 5 x IULN if secondary to lymphoma, Gilbert's syndrome, or medication related)
   * Direct bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x IULN (≤ 5 x IULN if secondary to lymphoma)
   * AST and ALT ≤ 2.5 x IULN (≤ 5 x IULN secondary to lymphoma)
6. Patients must be willing to receive Pneumocystis jirovecii prophylaxis with sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim, dapsone, and atovaquone or inhaled pentamadine, if they initiate combination umbralisib plus ublituximab (not for single agent ublituximab)
7. Patients must have a complete history and physical examination within 28 days prior to registration
8. Patients with follicular lymphoma must have the following components of Follicular Lymphoma International Prognostic Index (FLIPI) available from diagnosis, and collected again at time of registration:

   * Age
   * LDH
   * Number of nodal groups involved
   * Serum or plasma hemoglobin
   * Ann Arbor Stage Additionally, patients must have beta2-microglobulin collected at time of registration and response assessment.
9. Female subjects of reproductive potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 3 days prior to treatment start date. Female subjects who are of non-reproductive potential (i.e., post-menopausal by history - no menses for ≥1 year; OR history of hysterectomy; OR history of bilateral tubal ligation; OR history of bilateral oophorectomy at least six weeks ago) are exempt from pregnancy testing. In the case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow up hormone level assessment is she considered not of child bearing potential.
10. Male and female subjects of reproductive potential who agree to use both a highly effective method of birth control (e.g., implants, injectables, combined oral contraceptives, some intrauterine devices \[IUDs\], complete abstinence, or sterilized partner) and a barrier method (e.g., condoms, cervical ring, sponge, etc.) during the period of therapy.

The following are UNACCEPTABLE forms of contraception for females of childbearing potential:

* natural family planning (rhythm method)
* breastfeeding
* fertility awareness
* withdrawal For subjects, these birth control requirements must be adhered to for 4 months after the last dose of umbralisib and 12 months after the last dose of ublituximab, whichever is later.

Regulatory Criteria

1. Patients must be informed of the investigational nature of this study and must sign and give written informed consent in accordance with institutional and federal guidelines.

Exclusion Criteria:

Disease-Related

1. Transformed lymphoma; if clinical evidence of transformed lymphoma is present, transformation should be ruled out by biopsy of the suspicious lymph node/lesion
2. Prior treatment for follicular lymphoma or marginal zone lymphoma (Except: involved field or site radiation therapy is allowed)
3. Medically apparent central nervous system lymphoma or leptomeningeal disease
