Matthew Davids, MD, MMSc, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA, discusses the role of PI3K inhibitors (PI3Kis) in treating relapsed/refractory (R/R) chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). He notes that these drugs are associated with immune-mediated toxicities and a higher rate of infections, which limits their use to later lines of therapy. Dr Davids expresses hope that further research may lead to ways to mitigate these toxicities, allowing for renewed use of this drug class in CLL treatment. This interview took place at the 2024 European Research Initiative on CLL (ERIC) Meeting in Barcelona, Spain.
