Summary

This phase II trial tests how well nemtabrutinib and venetoclax work in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). Nemtabrutinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It blocks a protein called BTK, which is present on B-cells (a type of white blood cell) in cancers such as CLL or SLL at abnormal levels. This may help keep cancer cells from growing and spreading. Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking BCL-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Giving nemtabrutinib in combination with venetoclax may kill more cancer cells in patients with CLL or SLL.
