ASH 2024 | Efficacy and safety of acalabrutinib treatment in very old (≥80y) and/or frail patients with CLL

Florian Simon, MD, University Hospital Cologne, Cologne, Germany, comments on the efficacy and safety of acalabrutinib treatment in very old (≥80y) and/or frail patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Dr Simon highlights that the CLL-Frail trial (NCT04883749) found that 93% of patients responded to treatment, not only tolerating treatment but also experiencing an improvement in their perceived frailty. This interview took place at the 66th ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition, held in San Diego, CA.
