What This Trial Is Studying

This will be a global Phase IV, open-label, randomised study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of acalabrutinib (monotherapy, 100 mg orally [po], twice daily [bd]) compared to investigator's choice of treatment, in patients with CLL (TN or R/R) and moderate to severe cardiac impairment. All patients will have cardiac impairment as defined by LVEF of < 50%. Randomisation will be stratified by LVEF > 40% vs ≤ 40% to stratify for moderate and severe cardiac impairment, which for this study are defined as follows: Severe cardiac impairment: in those…
