Dr Moritz Fürstenau speaks to ecancer about the phase 3 GAIA/CLL13 trial.
This trial assesses various venetoclax-based combinations for chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL).
The study compares venetoclax obinutuzumab and other combinations to standard chemo immunotherapy, focusing on minimal residual disease rates and progression-free survival.
Results show significant improvements with venetoclax obinutuzumab and the triple combination, but concerns about quality of life and potential toxicities arise, impacting its first-line use.
