Sorry I missed the talk, but did time on IBR correlate with PFS off treatment?

[Nitin Jain @NitinJainMD]

@davidcnorrismd @iwCLL @anthonymatomd @tobyeyre82 @DrMDavids @sparikhmd @wwierda The trial did not report on the dose reductions and relation to outcomes. This data shows that some pts can remain progression free for sometime after stopping ibrutinib. I won’t recommend this strategy outside of a trial.

Great discussion with Lydia Scarfo at iwCLL 2019, Edinburgh. With different standard options, I think we all agree that the future is combined targeted treatment and MRD is important endpoint!
