In January 2022, CLL Society formally announced the launch of a new Research Program that is devoted to supporting underfunded areas of bench and translational science to make progress in the following four critical areas of unmet needs for those diagnosed with CLL / SLL:
We discuss early results from an ongoing study of a triple combination therapy with a PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitor for treating Richter’s transformation.
and President, interviewed Dr. Alexey Danilov, Associate Director of the Toni Stephenson Lymphoma Center at City of Hope in Duarte, CA. They discussed the development of Richter transformation after chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy.
Dr. Mato and Dr. Woyach discusses the results of a study looking at which features might predict the future development of Richter’s syndrome in patients treated with ibrutinib.
