Friends,

This week I’m posting another interview with Dr. Anthony Mato from UPenn when we talked at ASH 2016 about the optimal sequencing of ibrutinib, idelalisib, and venetoclax. He has been doing real-world research collecting data from patients being treated both in the community and academic settings, and not just within clinical trials. You can view my summary and watch the interview here.
