| Description | In recent years, treatment approaches for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) partially improved including evaluation of their efficiency by MRD-negativity. However, the pathogenesis of CLL has not been clearly elucidated and this unables the development of more effective treatment strategies for unfavourable disease subtypes. The studies of CLL biology point to three major areas with pathogenetic relevance: BCR signaling, apoptotic defects and influence of the microenvironment. Moreover, the CLL biology is complicated by partially different history of the subtypes and their relation to variable prognosis and novel therapeutic compounds. |
