iwCLL 2023 | Effects of dose adjustment of first-line ibrutinib on real-world dosing patterns and outcomes in CLL

In this interview, Kerry Rogers, MD, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH, outlines a study looking into the effects of dose adjustment of first-line ibrutinib in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) on real-world dosing patterns and outcomes. This study supports the idea that dose reduction – if necessary to manage adverse events – will not decrease efficacy of treatment, as time to next treatment (used as a surrogate for progression free survival) did not differ between those patients who had a dose-reduction and those who did not. In patients with dose-reduction, increased adherence to the treatment was observed. This interview was recorded at the biennial International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (iwCLL) 2023 meeting, held in Boston, MA.
