Novel 3D analysis reveals core tumor niches drive resistance through AP-1 signaling and stromal reprogramming.

Patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) had significantly lower monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio values compared with healthy controls.

Men fared better under surveillance, while women benefited more from targeted therapies for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) in a new study.

Real-world longitudinal data suggest that in CLL, regular immunoglobulin replacement therapy may not reduce, and may even correlate with increased, serious infection rates during treatment periods.

Pirtobrutinib had a nominally superior overall response rate compared to ibrutinib in certain patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL).

A cumulative review offers strong evidence that acalabrutinib has a low incidence of cardiac failure in both clinical trial and real-world settings.

Investigators found certain classes of prescriptions were also associated with outcomes, though they do not believe the association is necessarily a causal one.

New data showed a survival advantage with newer chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) treatments for older patients who are typically underrepresented in clinical trials.

While physical activity was linked with improved quality of life (QOL), the majority of patients are not given the recommendation from their doctor.

TP53 mutations can have a significant impact on the prognosis of diseases like chronic lymphocytic leukemia, but their effect can vary based on numerous factors.

Switching to venetoclax led to sustained high rates of undetectable minimal residual disease, the investigators found.

Patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic leukemia (SLL) treated with venetoclax plus obinutuzumab experienced significantly higher rates of serious infections compared with those receiving zanubrutinib, according to real-world data.

The indirect comparative analysis is the first of its kind to assess the relative efficacy of approved covalent Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors (cBTKis) in the absence of head-to-head trials.

Patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (R/R CLL) had similar results when they continued on ibrutinib or stopped and started ibrutinib plus venetoclax based on minimal residual disease (MRD) status.

Investigators used previous trial data to compare patients receiving the chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) to a real-world cohort receiving standard therapy.

Venetoclax demonstrated impressive efficacy in octogenarians with CLL, although treatment management posed some challenges.

Real-world data show no significant differences in overall survival between patients with or without cytogenetic risk factors.

The tablet formulation of zanubrutinib (Brukinsa; BeOne) is now approved for all 5 indications across several hematological cancers.

With a 42% reduction seen in the use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) throughout the decade, researchers suggest that transplantation may be reserved for more fit patients.

Zanubrutinib showed long-term efficacy in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) and deletion of the 17p chromosome, with progression-free survival similar to patients without high-risk disease characteristics.

People with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) saw a 55% year-to-year increase in all-cause mortality in the early days of the pandemic, a Swedish study found.

The real-world data showed lower rates of atrial fibrillation and hypertension associated with the second-generation Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor among patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).

A significant number of patients taking Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKis) for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) develop atrial fibrillation (AF).

Participants in the CLL11 trial and a smaller group of patients followed after study completion showed improved overall survival with obinutuzumab and chlorambucil (G-Clb) compared with chemotherapy plus rituximab or chemotherapy alone for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).

The findings come from a review of 4 randomized clinical trials, which found that statin use at the start of treatment was associated with improved cancer-related survival, overall survival, and progression-free survival.
