Study Summary

This trial will study whether people with CLL/SLL who have responded to treatment with venetoclax can stop treatment and remain off-treatment for a year or more.

Who is the study for?
Adults diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma, who have had a positive response to venetoclax treatment and show no minimal residual disease. They must have completed any anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody treatments and been on venetoclax for at least 6 months.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing if people with CLL or SLL who are MRD-negative after venetoclax treatment can stop taking the drug without their disease returning within 12 months. It also checks if they stay MRD-negative post-treatment.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While not specified here, common side effects of Venetoclax include diarrhea, nausea, low white blood cell count (neutropenia), upper respiratory tract infection, fatigue, and cough.
