Learning objective: After reading this article, learners will be able to cite a new clinical development in chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma.


The phase III RESONATE-2 trial (NCT01722487) assessed the safety and efficacy of ibrutinib vs chlorambucil in adult patients with untreated CLL/SLL.1 The final 10-year follow-up results of this trial were presented at the SOHO 2024 Annual Meeting by Burger.1

Key learnings
At 8 years, the ORR and CR/CRi rates increased to 92% and 36%, respectively, in the ibrutinib arm and remained stable thereafter.
At 9 years, PFS rates were higher in the ibrutinib arm compared with the chlorambucil arm (49.7% vs 4.4%), and the OS rate was 68.0% (95% CI, 58.6-75.7).
At the time of the final analysis, median OS was not estimable and median PFS was 8.9 years.
No new safety signals for ibrutinib were reported during this long-term follow-up. Of the 34 patients who experienced AEs of any grade leading to dose reduction, 28 had all AEs resolved.
Data from the RESONATE-2 trial demonstrates the durable clinical efficacy and tolerable safety profile of ibrutinib vs chlorambucil, supporting its use in older adult patients with untreated CLL/SLL, including those with high-risk disease features.
