A remarkable increase in the understanding of the pathogenesis of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) has led to the development of innovative therapies which has generated rapid progress in the management of CLL.
In this podcast, John Gribben of Barts Cancer Institute, London, UK, chairs an insightful discussion with Barbara Eichhorst of the University of Cologne, Cologne, Germany, Susan O’Brien of the University of California, Irvine, CA, and Matthew Davids of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA, on the latest CLL updates from the recent Virtual ASCO and EHA 2020 Meetings. The speakers discuss frontline therapy for CLL, BTK inhibitors, novel combination therapies and the importance of measurable residual disease (MRD) assessment. Treatment sequencing and novel therapies, in particular CAR T-cell approaches were also discussed.
