Monoclonal B-Cell Lymphocytosis: A precursor to CLL (chronic lymphocytic leukemia)

This week I'm posting  on the CLL Society website an interview that took place at ASH 2016 with Dr. Neil Kay from the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN where we discussed monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis or MBL, which is felt to be a precursor to CLL. You can view my summary, and watch the interview here: http://cllsociety.org/2017/06/mbl-precursor-cll/

We have posted interviews and articles about research that is being conducted to study treatment options for patients with relapsed or refractory CLL. On occasion we will make our readers of a clinical trial that is starting that might be of interest. Today we have posted some information about a trial for patients with relapsed refractory CLL who have received 2 or more prior treatments, including treatment with a BTK inhibitor such as ibrutinib or acalabrutinib. You can read more about it here: http://cllsociety.org/2017/06/new-clinical-trial-rr-cll/

Our big quarterly newsletter is next week.

So much to share. So little time.
