Impact of Off-Target AEs and Treatment Resistance on Evolving 1L Therapy Strategies for CLL
January 12th 2024Javier Pinilla, MD, PhD, provides a brief overview of the changing CLL treatment landscape, discussing the influence of off-target adverse events and the development of treatment resistance on the evolution of BTK inhibitor therapy.
Exploring BTKi Monotherapy in CLL: Long-Term Updates from ELEVATE-TN and SEQUOIA
January 12th 2024Brian Hill, MD, PhD, discusses the use of BTK inhibitor monotherapy in CLL and presented recent long-term data updates from studies such as the 6-year follow-up of ELEVATE-TN and the extended follow-up from SEQUOIA.
Pirtobrutinib Approval Adds Effective Third-Line Option to Previously Treated CLL/SLL Armamentarium
January 3rd 2024Lori A. Leslie, MD, discusses the significance of the FDA approval of pirtobrutinib for this population alongside the unmet needs it may address, highlights the efficacy and notable toxicities seen with the agent in the BRUIN study, and expands on the continued investigation of pirtobrutinib vs other standard-of-care regimens in various CLL subtypes.
FDA Approves Label Updates to Include New Data for Axi-Cel in LBCL, Zanubrutinib in CLL
December 22nd 2023The FDA has approved label updates for zanubrutinib to include data from the ALPINE trial in relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and axicabtagene ciloleucel to include findings from the primary overall survival analysis of the ZUMA-7 trial in relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma.
Zanubrutinib Improves PFS in Treatment-Naive CLL/SLL, Regardless of Complex Karyotypes
Paolo Ghia, MD, PhD, describes the various cohorts of the SEQUOIA study, expands on outcomes from a biomarker subgroup analysis with zanubrutinib vs bendamustine plus rituximab, and more.
Zanubrutinib Continues to Provide PFS Benefit Vs Ibrutinib in Relapsed/Refractory CLL/SLL
Jennifer R. Brown, MD, PhD, discusses the clinical implications of the ALPINE study and highlights a subgroup analysis of acquired mutations in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, demonstrating which mutations were associated with resistance to covalent BTK inhibitors.
Treatment with zanubrutinib conferred a PFS benefit vs bendamustine plus rituximab across most biomarker subgroups of patients with treatment-naive chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma without del(17p), according to findings from the phase 3 SEQUOIA trial.
Dr Woyach on Responses to Pirtobrutinib in CLL/SLL With/Without Prior BCL2 Inhibitor Exposure
December 15th 2023Jennifer A Woyach, MD, discusses the efficacy of pirtobrutinib in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma who progressed on treatment with a covalent BTK inhibitor, including subgroups with or without previous exposure to a BCL2 inhibitor.
Responses With Pirtobrutinib Remain High Despite Acquired Resistance in Relapsed CLL/SLL
December 13th 2023Responses on the non-covalent BTK inhibitor pirtobrutinib remained high in patients with relapsed chronic lymphocytic leukemia who expressed frequent baseline BTK mutations, according to a genomic analysis of the phase 1/2 BRUIN trial.

Dr Ghia on a Biomarker Analysis of the SEQUOIA Trial in CLL/SLL
December 10th 2023Paolo Ghia, MD, PhD, full professor, discusses a biomarker subgroup analysis of the phase 3 SEQUOIA trial investigating zanubrutinib vs bendamustine plus rituximab in patients with treatment-naive chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma without 17p deletions.
MRD-Guided Ibrutinib Plus Venetoclax Improves Survival in Treatment-Naive CLL
December 10th 2023Ibrutinib plus venetoclax, given at a duration determined by minimal residual disease, improved progression-free survival and overall survival vs fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab in patients with treatment-naive chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
Venetoclax Is Associated With Durable ORRs in Real-World Population of BTK Inhibitor–Exposed CLL/SLL
Venetoclax-based therapy generated durable responses both overall and in the second or third line following covalent BTK inhibitor discontinuation in real-world patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma.
