ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying how patients with Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia (WM), a type of blood cancer, are treated in Italy. Specifically, it looks at patients who received a medication called zanubrutinib (Brukinsa®) through a special program before it became widely available. The goal is to understand how effective this treatment has been and how it is managed by healthcare providers.
To participate in this study, individuals must be at least 18 years old, have a confirmed diagnosis of WM that needs treatment, and have received zanubrutinib either through the Compassionate Use Program or after it was commercially approved. Participants will not be given any new treatments during the study; instead, the research will focus on their past and current treatment experiences. It's important to note that the study is not yet recruiting participants, and patients must provide informed consent to join.
