GCLLSG 2016 | Why is personalized medicine important for CLL?

Petra Langerbeins, MD of University of Cologne, Cologne, Germany talks about personalized medicine for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Dr Langerbeins believes that personalized medicine will be important for CLL as it is a very heterogenous disease, ranging from patients who will never progress to patients who develop Richter’s transformation. Therefore, profiling patients will become more and more interesting according to Dr Langerbeins.
