New treatment option for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)
Official title A Study of Venetoclax in Participants With Relapsed or Refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT02966756
What this study is testing
What is Venetoclax?
Venetoclax is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (cll).
Also referred to as ABT-199, GDC-0199.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This is a Phase 2, open-label, multicenter study, evaluating the efficacy of venetoclax in participants with relapsed or refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (SLL) either in presence of 17p deletion (Cohort 1) or those who have failed a B-receptor signaling pathway inhibitor (BCRI) therapy and who have also failed, or were unable to receive chemoimmunotherapy (CIT) irrespective of 17p status (Cohort 2).
