ASH 2022: Dr. John Seymour on the Adverse Event Burden of Acalabrutinib vs. Ibrutinib in Patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)

January 24, 2023

In this interview, our own Dr. Brian Koffman interviewed Dr. John Seymour, Director of the Department of Hematology at Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre & Royal Melbourne Hospital in Melbourne, Australia. They discussed the latest updates to the safety data from the ELEVATE R/R study, which was the first clinical trial to compare acalabrutinib and ibrutinib head-to-head.

ASH 2022: Dr. Christine Ryan on Triple Combination Acalabrutinib, Venetoclax, and Obinutuzumab for High-Risk Patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (CLL / SLL)

January 6, 2023

In this ongoing trial, the triple combination therapy with acalabrutinib, venetoclax, and obinutuzumab is highly active and has thus far produced durable remissions as a frontline treatment in patients with TP53-aberrant chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), which was generally well tolerated with a low 2.9% incidence of atrial fibrillation with none of the more serious  abnormal ventricular heart irregularities seen.

ASH 2021: Phase II Study of Acalabrutinib and High-Frequency Low-Dose Subcutaneous Rituximab in Patients with Previously Untreated Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (CLL / SLL)

September 13, 2022

Acalabrutinib plus high-frequency, low-dose subcutaneous rituximab is tolerable and effective. In addition, because it can be administered at home, it is more convenient and can decrease patient infection risk during pandemics. However, while it does control disease, it does not lead to undetectable measurable residual disease (uMRD).

ASCO 2022: Acalabrutinib Versus Rituximab Plus Idelalisib or Bendamustine in Relapsed/Refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL): ASCEND Results at 4 Years of Follow-Up

August 25, 2022

At the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting in 2022, we received the four-year follow-up data update on the ASCEND trial.
This trial compared acalabrutinib (acala) to the treating doctor’s choice of rituximab plus idelalisib (IdR) or bendamustine (BR) in relapsed/refractory (R/R) chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

ASH 2021: Matching-Adjusted Indirect Treatment Comparison (MAIC) of Acalabrutinib Alone or in Combination with Obinutuzumab Versus Ibrutinib or Venetoclax Plus Obinutuzumab in Patients with Treatment-Naïve Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

March 16, 2022

Acalabrutinib (A) and ibrutinib (I) are both highly effective Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors approved for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and given as continuous treatments until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
