Guidelines

Given the rapid change in evidence in many areas of hematology/oncology, readers are encouraged to consider any guideline published 5+ years ago to be for historical purposes, only.

NCCN

Diagnosis, staging and treatment response criteria (TPLL-ISG)

Upfront induction therapy

Alemtuzumab monotherapy

Regimen

Study Dates of enrollment Evidence Efficacy
Dearden et al. 2001 1993-03 to 2000-05 Non-randomized ORR: 76%, CR: 60%
Dearden et al. 2011 (UKCLL05) 2005-10 to 2007-07 Non-randomized ORR: 91%, CR: 81%

Targeted therapy

  • Alemtuzumab (Campath) as follows:
    • Week 1: 3 mg IV once on day 1, then 10 mg IV once on day 2, then 30 mg IV once on day 3
    • Week 2 onwards: 30 mg IV three times weekly

Continued until achievement of CR or best response or for up to a total of 3 months
