Could a quicker dose Ramp-Up make CLL treatment easier?
NCT ID NCT04843904
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) can safely increase their dose of the drug venetoclax faster than the usual 5-week schedule. About 40 participants with newly diagnosed or returning disease will be grouped by their risk of tumor lysis syndrome, a potential side effect. The goal is to find the safest fastest ramp-up and see how well the treatment controls the cancer.
