In this episode of our podcast, recorded at the Canadian Conference on Lymphoproliferative Diseases (CCOLD) in Banff, Alberta, we discuss the results of the ALPINE trial with Dr. Matthew Davies. The ALPINE trial examined the efficacy and safety of zanubrutinib versus ibrutinib for the treatment of CLL. In this episode, Dr. Davids discusses the impact of the results of the ALPINE trial for clinical practice given the achievement of superior progression-free survival of zanubrutinib over ibrutinib for the treatment of relapsed or refractory CLL and SLL.
