On November 9, 2023, it was announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had granted lisocabtagene maraleucel, a chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy, priority review for the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic leukemia (SLL). This decision is based on promising results from the TRANSCEND CLL 004 (NCT03331198) trial.1
TRANSCEND CLL 004
TRANSCEND CLL 004 is a phase I/II open-label study evaluating lisocabtagene maraleucel in patients with relapsed/refractory CLL/SLL.1 The Lymphoma Hub previously reported the promising initial results at a median follow-up of 21 months which are summarized in Figure 1.2
