Description
Thirty-six patients with CLL were treated with alemtuzumab. Partial or complete response was achieved in 6 of 15 patients with p53 mutations, compared to 4 of 21 without. These findings are not statistically significant, but the authors suggest that alemtuzumab is an effective therapy for patients with p53 mutations or deletions.
