Show Notes
In today’s episode, we had the pleasure of speaking with Nicole Lamanna, MD, about patient selection considerations for the use of pirtobrutinib (Jaypirca) in the management of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Dr Lamanna is a hematologic oncologist at the Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center at NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia University Irving Medical Center in New York, New York.
In our exclusive interview, Dr Lamanna discussed how disease progression, treatment intolerance, and prior therapy exposure inform the decision to initiate pirtobrutinib in patients with CLL. She also highlighted important clinical features that guide the use of noncovalent BTK inhibitors—including sequencing strategies following covalent BTK and BCL-2 inhibitors, and emphasized the importance of balancing treatment efficacy with tolerability to optimize long-term disease management in CLL.
