The therapeutic landscape for chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) has significantly evolved over the past decade with dramatically improved outcomes with the introduction of targeted therapies. This unfortunately has not been the case for Richter transformation (RT), the histologic transformation to a more aggressive lymphoma, most typically diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). As such, RT continues to be one of the most challenging complications of CLL/SLL. Historically, RT has a poor response to treatment, with a minority reaching complete remission (CR) and overall survival (OS) being less than a year.
