ClinicalTrials ID:NCT06524375

This clinical trial is testing whether adding the drug venetoclax to the current treatment for first-line chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) can help achieve deep and long-lasting remissions, allowing patients to take breaks from treatment.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

The goal of this study is to find out if adding venetoclax to the treatment plan for patients with first-line chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) can lead to deep and lasting remissions. This means that the disease becomes undetectable in the blood, allowing patients to have periods without treatment. The study is called BRAVE, which stands for Btki Responders to Achieve deep remission (or off-treatment periods) with VEnetoclax.
