Parikh S, Shanafelt T, Rabe K et al.
Key Points:
Prevalence of hypogammaglobulinemia in patients with CLL and association with novel prognostic markers.
in patients with hypogammaglobulinemia median TTT was 3.8 years compared to 7.4 years with normal IgG (p<0.001).
Implications:
- One-quarter of CLL patients had low serum IgG level at time of diagnosis.
