Consensus Recommendations from the 2024 Lymphoma Research Foundation Workshop on Treatment Selection and Sequencing in CLL or SLL

Over the past decade, treatment recommendations for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) have shifted from traditional chemoimmunotherapy to targeted therapies. Multiple new therapies are commercially available, and in many cases a lack of randomized clinical trial data makes selection of the optimal treatment for each patient challenging. Additionally, many patients continue to receive chemoimmunotherapy in the US, suggesting a gap between guidelines and real-world practice. The Lymphoma Research Foundation convened a workshop comprised of a panel of CLL/SLL experts in the US to develop consensus recommendations for selection and sequencing of therapies for patients with CLL/SLL in the US. Herein, the recommendations are compiled for use as a practical clinical guide for treating providers caring for patients with CLL/SLL, which complement existing guidelines by providing a nuanced discussion relating how our panel of CLL/SLL experts in the US care for patients in a real-world environment.
