Summary

This trial tests the side effects and effectiveness of two drugs, daratumumab and ibrutinib, for treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with symptomatic chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who need treatment and haven't had chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or targeted therapy before. Participants must have certain blood counts, no history of severe allergic reactions to monoclonal antibodies, no active infections like hepatitis B/C or HIV, and not be pregnant or breastfeeding. They should also not have any serious heart conditions or other illnesses that could interfere with the study.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the combination of daratumumab (a monoclonal antibody) and ibrutinib (an enzyme blocker) to see if they are more effective in treating CLL compared to current treatments. The study will monitor how these drugs affect cancer cell growth and spread by analyzing biomarkers in the lab.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include infusion reactions from daratumumab such as fever and chills; bleeding problems; high blood pressure; fatigue; diarrhea; muscle spasms from ibrutinib. There may also be risks associated with liver function changes due to both medications.
