In today’s episode, supported by BeiGene, Alexey Danilov, MD, PhD, hosted a discussion with Nicole Lamanna, MD, about the use of zanubrutinib (Brukinsa) in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Dr Danilov is the Marianne and Gerhard Pinkus Professor of Early Clinical Therapeutics, the medical director of the Early Phase Therapeutics Program for the Systems Clinical Trials Office, co-director of the Toni Stephenson Lymphoma Center, and a professor in the Division of Lymphoma at the Department of Hematology & Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation at City of Hope in Duarte, California.

In our exclusive interview, Drs Danilov and Lamanna discussed key efficacy data from the final comparative analysis of the phase 3 ALPINE trial (NCT03734016) in patients with relapsed/refractory CLL, zanubrutinib-associated toxicities to consider when using this agent, and what the future looks like for BTK inhibitor–based therapy in CLL.
