Abstract
An international collaboration has led to the development of a comprehensive tool [CLL-IPI international prognostic index for CLL] for the predicting of overall survival (OS) in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).1 CLL-IPI was based on data collected from 3500 CLL patients and was based on the following parameters: TP53 deletion and/or mutation, IGHV mutational status, β2-microglobulin plasma levels, clinical stage, and age. CLL-IPI provides the means to stratify CLL patients in the daily clinical practice (Supplementary Table 1).1 Although validated for OS2-4 and time to first treatment (TTFT),5 the predictive value of CLL-IPI on progression-free survival (PFS) has until now only been demonstrated in a single study on patients treated with chlorambucil (CLB), as monotherapy, or in combination with obinutuzumab or rituximab, as a first-line approach (CLL11 study),6 and presented as a poster at the annual meeting of the American Society of Hematology (ASH) in 2016.
