Pirtobrutinib plus Venetoclax for resistant CLL or SLL
This trial tests two oral targeted drugs—pirtobrutinib and venetoclax—for people with CLL or SLL whose disease has continued to grow despite taking a BTK inhibitor (such as ibrutinib, acalabrutinib, or zanubrutinib). The goal is to see if this combination can control the cancer when a BTK inhibitor alone is no longer working.
