Study design details

Main study objective

Main objective: To determine the incidence of selected adverse events (including Richter’s transformation) in CLL patients using venetoclax following long term use in the Real World.

Outcomes

The primary outcome is the incidence of selected adverse events in CLL patients treated with venetoclax. Adverse events will be stratified by selected patient characteristics and risk factors. Information on adverse events will be captured via different sources (e.g. National Patient Register and Swedish Cancer Registry and EMRs).

Data analysis plan

Statistical analysis will be conducted separately for each objective. Time-to-event and case mix methodologies will be applied, as necessary (e.g. primary objective and secondary objective b). Incidence rates of adverse events will be calculated per unit of observational time. Adverse events will be stratified by relevant patient characteristics and risk factors. Descriptive analysis of patient and clinical characteristics will also be performed.
