Identification of Baseline Characteristics That Predict Good Outcome of alloHCT in Young CLL Patients - A Retrospective Analysis from the Chronic Malignancies Working Party of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation
ASH 2016 – CLL
The most important positive prognostic factor for 2-year nonrelapse mortality in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients following allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (alloSCT) is the donor HLA match. AlloSCT still remains a valid option for younger, high cytogenetic risk, refractory/relapsed CLL patients with an HLA-allele well-matched donor.

5-Year Ibrutinib Therapy in Treatment-Naïve Patients with Relapsed or Refractory CLL or SLL
ASH 2016 – CLL
After 5 years of follow-up, single-agent ibrutinib continues to show durable responses in patients with treatment-naive or relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic leukemia, including those with del17p, del11q, or unmutated IGVH.

Updated Safety and Efficacy Data for Ibrutinib as First-Line Treatment in Older Patients with CLL or SLL
ASH 2016 – CLL
With a median time on study of 28.6 months, ibrutinib demonstrated an 88% reduction in risk of progression or death in an elderly chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic leukemia patient population, with treatment-limiting adverse events decreasing in frequency with longer follow-up.

Nivolumab Combined with Ibrutinib for CLL and Richter Transformation: A Phase II Trial
ASH 2016 – CLL
The combination of nivolumab and ibrutinib has activity in patients with relapsed, refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and Richter transformation.

Outcomes of Ibrutinib Therapy by Age in Patients with CLL/SLL: Analyses from Phase 3 Trial Data (RESONATE and RESONATE-2)
ASH 2016 – CLL
Progression-free survival for treatment-naive ibrutinib-treated chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic leukemia (CLL/SLL) patients was similar regardless of age subgroup, whereas it was shorter for chlorambucil-treated patients aged ≥75 years compared with those aged 65 to

11q Deletion (del11q) Is Not a Prognostic Factor for Adverse Outcomes for Patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (CLL/SLL) Treated with Ibrutinib: Pooled Data from 3 Randomized Phase 3 Studies
ASH 2016 – CLL
In pooled data from 3 randomized studies, the benefit of ibrutinib on progression-free and overall survival is most marked in patients with CLL/SLL with del11q, which is not the case with ofatumumab, chlorambucil, or bendamustine/rituximab.

Initial Results of a Multicenter, Phase II Study of Ibrutinib plus FCR (iFCR) as Frontline Therapy for Younger CLL Patients
ASH 2016 – CLL
Ibrutinib plus fludarabine/cyclophosphamide/rituximab (FCR) induces deep responses in previously untreated young patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), with 39% of evaluable patients achieving complete response with bone marrow minimal residual disease negativity (BM MRD-neg) and 89% achieving BM MRD-neg, significantly higher than the 20% rate seen historically with FCR alone.

Management and Outcomes of Atrial Fibrillation in Patients Receiving Ibrutinib for Hematologic Malignancies at a Single Center
ASH 2016 – CLL
In a single-center study, atrial fibrillation events in patients being treated with ibrutinib were generally manageable and, in the majority of cases, did not result in drug discontinuation.

Long-Term Follow-Up of Chlorambucil plus Rituximab Combination as Frontline Therapy for Elderly and/or Unfit Patients with CLL, Including Risk Stratification
ASH 2016 – CLL
Treatment of elderly and/or unfit chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients with chlorambucil plus rituximab is associated with low toxicity, a high overall response rate and durable progression-free survival, especially in patients with a mutated IGHV profile and not carrying del17p and del11q. In this low-risk subset of unfit patients, this combination could represent the optimal therapeutic option taking into consideration safety, efficacy, and cost.

Preclinical Analyses Support Clinical Investigation of Combined Anti-CD19 CAR-T Cell, JCAR017 with Ibrutinib for the Treatment of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
ASH 2016 – CLL
Ibrutinib enhances intrinsic JCAR017 activity and may improve outcomes in chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients treated with anti-CD19 CAR T therapy, irrespective of Bruton tyrosine kinase mutational status.
