Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, targeted therapies have generated spectacular outcomes in clinical practice and have changed the treatment for patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL). Relevant insights are being unraveled from a biologic point of view, including the potential relevance of complex karyotype, novel genetic and molecular techniques, and the validation of those in the era of novel drugs. The current challenge for CLL treatment may include the lack of optimal evidence to recommend options or sequencing them in any given scenario. The purpose of this Special Issue is to understand the current pros and cons of different treatment options and explore new opportunities for effective anticancer therapies. This Special Issue welcomes reviews, as well as original research articles.
Dr. Javier Loscertales-Pueyo
