Acalabrutinib for CLL/SLL patients with heart issues from ibrutinib
Treatments studied
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial tests a different targeted drug, acalabrutinib, for people with CLL or SLL who developed heart problems (like atrial fibrillation) while taking ibrutinib. The goal is to see if acalabrutinib can control the cancer without causing the same heart side effects.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older.
- You are generally able to care for yourself (ECOG score 0-2).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial is testing a combination of three targeted drugs (tafasitamab, acalabrutinib, and venetoclax) for people with CLL or SLL who have not yet received treatment. The goal is to see if this combination is effective and manageable.
This Phase 2 trial studies how well acalabrutinib works when combined with either venetoclax or obinutuzumab in people with untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). It aims to improve disease control while checking safety and tolerability.
This trial tests whether taking venetoclax on an intermittent schedule (not every day) works as well as taking it continuously when combined with acalabrutinib for people with untreated CLL or SLL. It aims to find a treatment approach that might be just as effective but with fewer side effects.
This trial tests a targeted therapy called acalabrutinib (a pill) against other standard treatments for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) in people who also have heart conditions. The goal is to see if acalabrutinib is a safer or more effective option for this group.
This Phase 2 trial studies whether acalabrutinib, and optionally adding obinutuzumab, can control early-stage chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). It aims to see how well these treatments work and how safe they are in people who have not had prior treatment.
This study is looking at how well acalabrutinib works in real-world patients who have mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) or chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL). If you have one of these types of blood cancer and have not had certain other treatments, you may be able to join.
