Article

Six posters presented at the 65th American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting and Exposition looked at how treatments are impacting care for this patient population.

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia is one of the most prevalent subtypes of adult leukemia. In 2019, there were more than 100000 cases globally and over 40000 deaths.1 The treatment landscape for the disease has improved over the past several years with the introduction of new therapies, such as Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors and venetoclax. Six posters presented at the 65th American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting and Exposition looked at the topic further to examine how treatments are impacting care for this patient population.
