The Treatment of Relapsed Refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

Abstract: Despite the widespread use of highly effective chemoimmunotherapy (CIT), fludarabine-refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) remains a challenging clinical problem associated with poor overall survival (OS). The traditional definition, which includes those patients with no response or relapse within 6 months of fludarabine, is evolving with the recognition that even patients with longer remissions of up to several years after CIT have poor subsequent treatment response and survival. Approved therapeutic … Show more

“…1 CLL has a widely variable disease course: some patients have indolent disease not requiring treatment for decades, whereas others have aggressive disease requiring immediate treatment. 1,2 Although oral alkylating agents like chlorambucil were historically the initial standard therapy for patients with CLL/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), 3 newer agents such as fludarabine, with or without cyclophosphamide, [4][5][6] and bendamustine 7 have improved response rates and remission durations. Furthermore, as demonstrated by the German CLL Study Group CLL8 trial, the addition of rituximab to fludarabine and cyclophosphamide (FCR) improved not just progression-free survival (PFS) but also overall survival, establishing chemoimmunotherapy (CIT) as the standard of care for firstline treatment of young and/or fit patients.…”
