摘要
Chemoimmunotherapy (CIT) has become a cornerstone in the treatment of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The combination of fludarabine, cyclophosphamide and rituximab (FCR) has emerged as the standard of care for therapy of previously untreated patients with CLL who are younger than 65 years and have no significant comorbidities. In this article, we review the role of FCR in the current treatment paradigm for CLL.
