Loïc Ysebaert, MD, PhD, Institut Universitaire du Cancer de Toulouse-Oncopole, Toulous, France, outlines results of ibrutinib real-world use in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and highlights the importance of evaluating real-world data in conjunction with clinical trial results. Dr Ysebaert highlights differences in toxicities associated with real-world ibrutinib use in comparison to clinical trial data, as well as the findings from a French monitoring initiative (AMA), evaluating the importance of clinical nurses alongside clinicians in reducing toxicities associated with ibrutinib as well as improving outcomes in patients with CLL.
