First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 33 times

Summary

This study tests whether adding cirmtuzumab to the standard drug venetoclax can eliminate remaining leukemia cells in people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who still have detectable disease after taking venetoclax alone. About 5 participants will receive the combination for 6 months. The goal is to see if this approach can make the cancer undetectable and delay the need for future treatment.
