The goal of this activity is to improve the knowledge, confidence, and performance of learners to integrate recent findings into the treatment of patients with CLL/SLL.
The therapeutic landscape of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) has evolved significantly in recent years, and the use of targeted therapy with small molecule inhibitors in the first-line setting will significantly alter the management of relapsed/refractory disease.

The goal of this activity is to improve the competence and performance of learners to apply practice-changing clinical data and expert recommendations to optimize the use current/emerging therapeutic strategies in the care of their patients with CLL/SLL.

Recent advances in understanding the biology of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) have resulted in the development of novel therapies targeting key signaling pathways involved in the pathogenesis of this disease.

The management of histologic transformation of CLL to aggressive lymphomas remains an unmet clinical need since the standard of care is not established. Treatment selection for patients with CLL without del(17p)/TP53 mutation should be individualized based patient’s age, performance status, comorbid conditions, as well as the agent’s toxicity profile. Oncologists and hematologists need to understand the unique challenges associated with the management of histologic transformation of CLL.

The treatment landscape of first-line therapy for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) has evolved significantly in recent years. Educating the clinicians about the recent clinical advances and the benefits/risks associated with the use of chemoimmunotherapy vs. targeted therapy can help them to make informed clinical decisions and develop an individualized treatment plan.
The goal of this program is to improve the knowledge and competence of clinicians to implement best practices in the treatment of CLL.
