Webinar Series: What's New in HCL? Ibrutinib in Classic and Variant HCL
April 20, 2021
Speaker: Dr. Kerry Rogers, The Ohio State University
We are excited to launch a new webinar series that will explore the latest news and publications in HCL research. Through this series, investigators with recently published research will highlight their findings. Unlike our general HCL webinars that provide an overview of HCL and its therapies, each webinar in this new series will do a deeper dive into a single study or publication. On April 20th, Dr. Rogers presented results of a multisite phase 2 study of ibrutinib in patients with classic or variant hairy cell leukemia. These results were published in March 2021 in Blood, a journal of the American Society of Hematology (ASH). In 2017, Dr. Rogers was a member of the HCLF/SASS inaugural class of Fellowship Awardees. The fellowship grant award that year supported her research in Ibrutinib.
