Summary

This trial is testing a new combination of drugs (Loncastuximab Tesirine and Aclabrutinib) for treating chronic lymphocytic leukemia. The main goal is to find

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who have been on Acalabrutinib for at least 3 months without disease progression. Participants must have had prior CLL treatment, measurable residual disease, and adequate kidney and liver function. They should not be using G-CSF within 7 days of joining the study.
What is being tested?
The study aims to find the highest dose of Loncastuximab Tesirine that can be safely added to Acalabrutinib in treating CLL without causing severe side effects. It's an early-phase trial focusing on dosage levels.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions where the drug enters the body, changes in blood counts leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems, liver issues, fatigue, and possible kidney-related complications.
