New targeted therapies have revolutionized the treatment landscape in CLL. Biological features, patient characteristics and preferences and the safety profile of each treatment option should be taken into consideration for making the optimal treatment choice.This consensus practice statement on CLL treatment was developed by a group of Greek experts in CLL based on the available evidence for both the first line treatment and for the relapsed/refractory setting.
