Obinutuzumab (GA-101), ibrutinib, and venetoclax (GIVe) frontline treatment for high-risk chronic lymphocytic leukemia

Henriette Huber et al.

Summary: Despite advances in targeted therapies, patients with high-risk chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) still have inferior outcomes compared to others. The CLL2-GIVe treatment regimen, combining multiple agents, has shown good efficacy and manageable safety as a first-line treatment for high-risk CLL.

Measurable residual disease does not preclude prolonged progression-free survival in CLL treated with ibrutinib

Xin Victoria Wang et al.

Summary: E1912 trial showed that undetectable MRD was associated with longer PFS in the FCR arm, but in the IR arm, patients with detectable MRD did not have significantly worse PFS. This suggests that MRD could be a useful surrogate endpoint for PFS in patients receiving FCR.

Summary: The study evaluated the potential for fixed-duration treatment in CLL patients using MRD-guided therapy interruption, with a 95% 1-year DFS rate in placebo randomly assigned patients with Confirmed uMRD suggesting promise for this approach in first-line CLL treatment.
