Christine Ryan, MD, discussed the evaluation of safety and efficacy of ibrutinib plus obinutuzumab in patients with relapsed/refractory CLL in the trial and how the results could result in another treatment option for patients with relapsed/refractory CLL.

Christine Ryan, MD, discusses the investigation of ibrutinib plus obinutuzumab in relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Zanubrutinib demonstrated a significant improvement in progression-free survival compared with orelabrutinib in patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma or mantle cell lymphoma.

Zanubrutinib was found to significantly improve progression-free survival over a doublet comprised of bendamustine plus rituximab in patients with treatment-naïve chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma, according to data from cohort 1 of the phase 3 SEQUOIA trial.

Pirtobrutinib continued to produce promising responses in heavily pretreated patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma, irrespective of BTK C481 mutation status, reason for prior BTK inhibitor discontinuation, or other classes of previous therapy received.

Findings from a phase 1b trial showed that the addition of obinutuzumab to ibrutinib produced a complete response rate that compared favorably with what has historically been observed with ibrutinib monotherapy in patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

The FDA has warned that treatment with duvelisib has shown a possible increased risk of death and serious adverse effects compared with ofatumumab in patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma.

Practical considerations for treatment selection in patients who progress on CAR T-Cell therapy.

Dr. Jae Park comments on the findings from the ELIANA study and tisagenlecleucel as a potential option for adults with R/R B-ALL.

An oncologist specializing in the treatment of patients with B-ALL discusses the study design, efficacy, safety, and two-year updated results of the phase I/II ZUMA-3 study evaluating brexucabtagene autoleucel in adult patients with R/R B-ALL.

Jae Park, MD, shares an overview of available therapeutic options for patients with R/R B-ALL.

Nemtabrutinib, a potent, non-covalent BTK inhibitor, continued to demonstrate antitumor activity with an acceptable safety profile in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma.

The addition of venetoclax to ibrutinib resulted in a high rate of minimal residual disease negativity in the blood and marrow of patients with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Zanubrutinib achieved favorable health-related quality of life outcomes compared with bendamustine plus rituximab in patients with treatment-naïve chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma.

Venetoclax plus obinutuzumab remains an effective fixed-duration treatment option for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia and coexisting conditions, according to updated efficacy and safety data from the ongoing phase 3 CLL14 trial.

The phase 3 BRUIN CLL-313 trial is currently recruiting patients with treatment naïve chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pirtobrutinib monotherapy vs bendamustine plus rituximab.

Jeff Sharman, MD, discusses 5-year follow-up data from the phase 3 Elevate CLL TN trial in treatment-naïve patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Time-limited targeted therapy with venetoclax plus obinutuzumab with or without ibrutinib demonstrated superior progression-free survival outcomes compared with standard chemoimmunotherapy in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic leukemia assigned to zanubrutinib reported better health-related quality of life than those administered ibrutinib.

The fixed-duration, frontline combination comprised of ibrutinib and venetoclax continued to produce deep, durable responses with a clinically meaningful progression-free survival benefit in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma.

This publication highlights expert perspectives on the current therapeutic landscape in chronic lymphocytic leukemia with emphasis on factors affecting treatment selection including novel regimens, combination therapies, and ongoing clinical trials.

The BRUIN CLL-321 trial is evaluating pirtobrutinib monotherapy compared with investigator’s choice of idelalisib plus rituximab or bendamustine plus rituximab among patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma who have previously received covalent BTK inhibitor treatment.

At approximately 5 years of follow-up, findings from the phase 3 ELEVATE-TN study show that treatment outcomes are more favorable with acalabrutinib with or without obinutuzumab compared with obinutuzumab and chlorambucil in treatment-naïve chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Fixed-duration venetoclax plus rituximab has shown sustained progression-free survival, overall survival, and minimal residual disease benefits vs bendamustine plus rituximab in patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia, regardless of high-risk biomarkers.

The fixed-duration combination of ibrutinib and venetoclax produced deep responses and improved progression-free survival vs chlorambucil plus obinutuzumab when used in previously untreated patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia who were older and/or who had comorbidities, according to findings from the phase 3 GLOW trial.
