Selecting the Optimal BTK Inhibitor in Relapsed/Refractory CLL

Panelists discuss how Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor selection in patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (R/R CLL) depends on key factors including prior therapy response, BTK C481 mutation status, comorbidities, drug interaction profiles, dosing convenience, and adverse effect considerations, with noncovalent inhibitors offering particular benefit for those with BTK mutations or intolerance to covalent agents.
