Scientific Publications
CLL Society publishes original research in peer-reviewed journals and presents abstracts at major professional cancer conferences to advance the understanding of CLL / SLL. We have primarily focused on research to help study and explain the patient perspective to healthcare professionals, but are currently expanding the scope of our research efforts.
FEATURE
This was, to our knowledge, the largest survey ever done canvassing CLL patients. Its results were so significant and broad that it was necessary to report the data in three separate posters presented to hematologists and oncologists at three major annual conferences, ASH, EHA and ASCO. The EHA poster and data are featured here: A US-Based Survey: The Experiences of 1147 CLL Patients.
