Targeted Therapy for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

Watch Adrian Wiestner's presentation from the AVAHO 2014 Meeting in Portland, Oregon.


 

This presentation by Adrian Wiestner, MD, PhD, from the 2014 AVAHO Meeting in Portland, Oregon, provides an overview of new insights into the pathogenesis and treatment of CLL, how to interpret molecular targets during treatment, and the advantages and disadvantages of these treatment options for patients.

"The standard of care today is really chemo-immunotherapy," Wiestner said. "Ideally, we would like to have a more disease-directed therapy that is tolerable and active."
