Core Insights - Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) is increasingly prevalent among the aging population in China, with a median age of diagnosis at 65 years, and the patient count is expected to grow at an annual rate of over 10% in the next decade [3] - The approval of multiple BTK inhibitors for first-line treatment of CLL marks a significant shift in therapy, moving away from traditional chemotherapy, which has considerable side effects and is less suitable for older patients [1][4] - The introduction of oral BTK inhibitors, such as Orelabrutinib, enhances patient compliance and offers a more manageable treatment option, although monitoring for adverse effects remains essential [4][5] Industry Overview - As of now, five BTK inhibitors have been approved in China for CLL treatment, including three imported drugs and two domestic ones, indicating a growing market for targeted therapies [1][3] - The challenges in CLL treatment include the concentration of quality medical resources in major cities, weak capabilities in grassroots healthcare, and the need for standardized treatment protocols [3] - The future direction of CLL treatment is leaning towards "chemotherapy-free" strategies, with ongoing developments in new drugs and combination therapies expected to refine treatment options [5]
