Pirtobrutinib plus venetoclax with or without rituximab in relapsed/refractory CLL; murine models of erythroid 5ALA synthesis disorders; targeting PKCa in diabetes and hemochromatosis

In this week's episode we’ll discuss the safety and efficacy of pirtobrutinib with or without rituximab in relapsed/refractory CLL; learn more about erythroid 5ALA synthesis disorders and their conditional synthetic lethal dependency on pyridoxine; and discuss how targeting PKC alpha alleviates iron overload in diabetes and hemochromatosis through the inhibition of ferroportin.
