Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia: Inception to Cure: Are We There?

Abstract There have been remarkable advances in our understanding of the biology and therapeutics of chronic lymphocytic leukemia. B cell receptor signaling and micro-environment in CLL biology have been the most modern areas of research. In CLL therapeutics, we have come a long way from alkylating agents to chemo-immunotherapy. Despite this there remain significant lacunae in the disease biology that has hindered our quest to achieve the ultimate in CLL: Cure. This review aims to summarize the past, present and future in the biology and treatment of CLL..
