Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

This phase II trial tests how well venetoclax, rituximab and nivolumab works in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) with Richter's transformation. Richter's transformation can be described as the development of an aggressive lymphoma in the setting of underlying CLL/SLL that has a very poor prognosis with conventional therapies and represents a significant unmet medical need. Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking BCL-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab and nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving venetoclax, rituximab and nivolumab together may work better than the conventional intensive immunochemotherapy to improve disease control in patients with Richter's transformation arising from CLL/SLL.
