ABSTRACT
This retrospective study using the nationwide de-identified Flatiron Health electronic health record-derived database was designed to evaluate clinical outcomes among patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who previously received both a covalent Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor (cBTKi) and B-cell lymphoma 2 inhibitor (BCL2i) in a real-world setting. Outcomes for the immediate next line of therapy following the latter of the cBTKi or BCL2i treatment included: real-world response rate of 34.4% (using methods most consistent with clinical trials); median duration of real-world response of 13.3 months; and median real-world progression-free survival of 9.2 months. Median overall survival was 25.5 months from the start of the immediate next line of therapy. There remains a need for more effective therapies after cBTKi and BCL2i therapy for patients with CLL.
