Optimizing CAR T for R/R CLL: Timing and Treatment Sequencing Strategies
Author(s)Caron A. Jacobson, MD, MMSc, Peter Riedell, MD
Experts discuss when to consider chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy (CAR T) for relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (R/R CLL) patients and how to sequence CAR T and pirtobrutinib in clinical practice for those who have previously received both covalent Bruton tyrosine kinase (cBTK) inhibitor– and BCL2 inhibitor–containing regimens.
