ASH 2019 | Veneto-STOP: MRD detection by NGS to optimize treatment outcomes with venetoclax

Undetectable measurable residual disease (uMRD) with venetoclax therapy is associated with improved PFS in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Chaitra Ujjani, MD, University of Washington & Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Seattle, WA, explains the rationale of utilizing MRD assessment with a next generation sequencing (NGS) assay in order to guide clinical decision making in patients with CLL that are receiving venetoclax-based regimens. This interview took place at the American Society of Hematology (ASH) 2019 Annual Meeting and Exposition in Orlando, FL.
