Prof Nicole Lamanna - ASH 2019 - Maturing CLL clinical trial data

Dr. Nicole Lamanna, Associate Clinical Professor of haematological malignancies at Columbia University Medical Centre discusses the maturing CLL clinical trial data presented at ASH 2019.

Phenomenal 3 and 4 year results from trials of combinations of novel therapies raise new questions that require answering with more data: Are combinations of novel therapies better than sequential therapies? Which groups will benefit most from triplet, doublet combinations or sequential single agents? How novel next generation and 1st generation BTK inhibitors compare in long term head to head comparisons?

What do they mean when they say "Fix duration treatment"?

Hi Sushibruno

Fixed duration treatment means you can stop treatment after maybe 12 or 24 months unlike Ibrutinib which you take indefinitely.

Big thanks for that Nick.

So the new one Prof Lammana mentioned in phase one was LOXO 305 (Hope I heard that correctly):

Also great in these post brexit times hear a French clinician.

Best wishes,

Hi Big_dee how are you? Apologies I have not been as visible on line recently as I have redirected some of my efforts over past years and paint with a different brush, still keeping busy with advocacy and living life with CLL, 11 years in and still learning :-)
