Leukemia, Acute Lymphoblastic (ALL)
Over the last 30 years, he has been involved in clinical research in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). During this time the complete remission rate has risen dramatically from approximately 5% to 50 – 60%. This is associated with improvements in developmental therapeutic programs but also a dramatic improvement in the understanding of the biology and prognostic factors of CLL. CLL is a disease of the elderly and the characterization of other cancers in survivors of CLL is vitally important. Understanding of this comparison between incidence and characteristics of other cancers in CLL survivors is vitally important in its own right but must be integrated into clinical understanding of the disease. He is totally committed to providing clinical and intellectual resources at his disposal to support the program.
