New CLL strategy: two-drug combo first, extra drug only if needed

NCT ID NCT05650723

First seen Mar 07, 2026 · Last updated Jun 08, 2026 · Updated 15 times

Summary

This study tests a new approach for people with untreated CLL. Instead of giving three drugs to everyone, patients start with two oral medications (zanubrutinib and venetoclax). Only those who still have signs of cancer after 16 cycles get a third drug (obinutuzumab) to boost response. The goal is to achieve undetectable cancer levels while avoiding unnecessary side effects. About 50 adults with CLL or SLL will take part.
