First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 25, 2026 · Updated 30 times
Summary
This early-phase study tests whether giving rituximab and high-dose steroids before venetoclax can safely lower the number of cancer cells in people with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). The goal is to reduce the risk of tumor lysis syndrome, a potentially serious side effect from rapid cancer cell breakdown. About 4 adults who have already tried at least one prior treatment will participate, and the approach is considered experimental.
