Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Prognostic Factors Prognostic Feature Associated With Poor Prognosis CD38 expression on CLL cells High CD38 expression (30%) Chromosome Study Zap-70 expression on CLL cells High Zap-70 expression (20%) IGHV mutation status FISH Unmutated CLL Serum β2 macroglobulin PCR Elevated (3.5 mg/L) FISH cytogenetics Mutation Analysisdel(17p), del(11q) Gene mutations NGSTP53, NOTCH1, BIRC3, SF3B1, or ATM Rai KR, Jain P. Am J Hematol. 2016;91:330-340. CLL: Prognostic Value of FISH • Deletions on the long arm of chromosome 13 is most commonly observed (55% of all cases) – Isolated del(13q14) is associated with a benign disease course • 17p deletion and/or TP53 mutation is an adverse prognostic feature, predicting for inferior responses and survival in CLL – Lower responses to chemoimmunotherapy • Important to obtain at diagnosis and should be repeated before subsequent therapies as additional genetic abnormalities may be acquired Dohner et al, N Engl J Med. 2000;343:1910.

However, the emergence of resistance to BTKi has introduced an unmet therapeutic need. Here we demonstrate in vitro and in vivo the essential roles of PI3K-δ for CLL B-cell survival and migration and of PI3K-γ in T-cell migration and macrophage polarization; and more ecacious inhibition in CLL-cell burden by dual inhibition of PI3K-δ,γ.

Efforts to mitigate this cancer hallmark have been ongoing for decades, focused mostly on inhibiting BCL-2, a key anti-apoptosis effector. The approval of venetoclax, a selective BCL-2 inhibitor, for clinical use has been a turning point in the field of oncology. While resulting in impressive improvement in objective outcomes, particularly for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma and acute myeloid leukemia, the use of venetoclax has exposed a variety of resistance mechanisms to BCL-2 inhibition. As the field continues to move forward, improved understanding of such mechanisms and the potential biomarkers that could be harnessed to optimize patient selection for therapies that include venetoclax and next-generation BCL-2 inhibitors are gaining increased importance. Abstract: Intrinsic apoptotic pathway dysregulation plays an essential role in all cancers, particularly hematologic malignancies. This role has led to the development of multiple therapeutic agents Citation: Salah, H.T.; DiNardo, C.D.; targeting this pathway.

The findings and conclusions in this document are those of the authors, who are responsible for its content, and do not necessarily represent the views of AHRQ. No statement in this report should be construed as an official position of AHRQ or of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. A novel intervention may not appear in this report simply because the System has not yet detected it. The list of novel interventions in the Horizon Scanning Status Update Report will change over time as new information is collected. This should not be construed as either endorsements or rejections of specific interventions. As topics are entered into the System, individual target technology reports are developed for those that appear to be closer to diffusion into practice in the United States.
