A Trial of Pirtobrutinib (LOXO-305) Plus Venetoclax and Rituximab (PVR) Versus Venetoclax and Rituximab (VR) in Previously Treated Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (CLL/SLL) (BRUIN CLL-322)

January 27, 2026 updated by: Loxo Oncology, Inc.

A Phase 3 Open-Label, Randomized Study of Fixed Duration Pirtobrutinib (LOXO-305) Plus Venetoclax and Rituximab Versus Venetoclax and Rituximab in Previously Treated Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (BRUIN CLL-322)

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of fixed duration pirtobruitinib (LOXO-305) with VR (Arm A) compared to VR alone (Arm B) in patients with CLL/SLL who have been previously treated with at least one prior line of therapy. Participation could last up to five years.
