Title: | NCCN Guidelines® Insights: Chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma, version 3.2022: Featured updates to the NCCN Guidelines |
Abstract: | The treatment landscape of chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) has significantly evolved in recent years. Targeted therapy with Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors and BCL-2 inhibitors has emerged as an effective chemotherapy-free option for patients with previously untreated or relapsed/refractory CLL/SLL. Undetectable minimal residual disease after the end of treatment is emerging as an important predictor of progression-free and overall survival for patients treated with fixed-duration BCL-2 inhibitor-based treatment. These NCCN Guidelines Insights discuss the updates to the NCCN Guidelines for CLL/ SLL specific to the use of chemotherapy-free treatment options for patients with treatment-naïve and relapsed/refractory disease. © 2022 Harborside Press.
