Guest guest Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 As it turns out, I just gave a talk today on this subject. Some patients and physicians like to know what the future might hold. I believe that the prognostic markers are only good for telling patients what curve they will be on, not where on the curve they will be, and are therefore not helpful. Ultimately, these prognostic markers teach us a great deal regarding the biology of CLL and may help identify better treatments. For example, one group has shown that the chemokine CLL3 has a strong prognostic role in CLL. As it turns out, CCL3 signals through the JAK2 kinase. We will be shortly taking an inhibitor of the JAK2 kinase into the clinic. This will provide some rationale for its use in CLL. The one area where prognostic markers are helpful for clinical decision making is with deletion 17p and deletion 11q and guiding choice of therapy, Rick Furman, MD > > I keep reading that prognostic factors are not useful except in very > selective circumstances. > > Why, then, is so much research time, effort & money spent on developing > and studying them? > > Mal > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
