Genomic Analyses Shed Light on Pirtobrutinib Resistance in CLL

Dr Taylor discusses the significance of BTK inhibition in chronic lymphocytic leukemia, describes the key objectives of, and methods used, for the genomic analyses performed by his team, underscores the clinical significance of the data yielded from this research, and outlines where future efforts will focus.

Justin W. Taylor, MD, discusses findings from a genomic analysis on BTK inhibitors in chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

A small proportion of a subset of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia acquired mechanisms of genetic resistance to the novel noncovalent BTK inhibitor pirtobrutinib, according to results from a genomic analysis of patients in the phase 1/2 BRUIN trial.

Justin W. Taylor, MD, discusses the significance of BTK inhibition in the treatment of patients with CLL, the genomic analyses conducted in those enrolled to BRUIN who received pirtobrutinib, and the significance of the data yielded from this research.
