S18 Ep19: Navigating Fixed-Durations Regimens in CLL and Improving Outcomes for High-Risk Patients: With John N. Allan, MD

In today’s episode, we spoke with John N. Allan, MD. Dr Allan is an associate attending physician at New York-Presbyterian Hospital and an associate professor of clinical medicine at Weill Cornell Medical College in New York, New York. In our exclusive interview, Dr Allan discussed his review of the currently approved fixed-duration regimens for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Regimens like venetoclax (Venclexta) plus obinutuzumab (Gazyva), ibrutinib (Imbruvica) plus venetoclax, acalabrutinib (Calquence) plus venetoclax, and venetoclax plus rituximab (Rituxan) were all regimens that Allan comparatively delved into. Additionally, Allan discussed insight provided by the review that clinical trials lack, remaining gaps of unmet needs for fixed-duration regimens in CLL, and what research is necessary for the field to conduct moving forward.
