Masterclass | Optimizing BTKi + BCL-2i combination therapy for patients with CLL

Share:

Feb 13, 2026

Learning objective: After reading this article, learners will be able to discuss the optimization of BTKi + BCL-2i for patients with CLL.


There are several treatment options for treatment-naïve patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), with targeted therapy regimens broadly categorized as continuous or fixed-duration. Among the fixed-duration treatment strategies, the combination of a Bruton’s tyrosine kinase inhibitor (BTKi) with a B-cell lymphoma 2 inhibitor (BCL-2i) has demonstrated efficacy in this patient population.

The Lymphoma Hub spoke with Francesc Bosch and Susan O’Brien to gain their expert insights on the factors influencing BTKi + BCL-2i treatment selection for patients with CLL and the latest clinical data from the CAPTIVATE trial. We also summarize results from the FLAIR trial, which assessed measurable residual disease (MRD)-guided ibrutinibvenetoclax in treatment-naïve patients with CLL.
