Amy Johnson, PhD, associate professor, Hematology, Ohio State University, discusses the overall high response rates in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) to a new novel bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor called acalabrutinib (ACP-196). Acalabrutinib is a selective, irreversible BTK inhibitor designed to improve both the safety and efficacy of BTK inhibitors in CLL.
