Lisaftoclax is an investigational new drug being developed by Ascentage Pharma for the treatment of hematological malignancies, particularly chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). It is a selective inhibitor of the B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL-2) protein, designed to restore the normal process of programmed cell death (apoptosis) in cancer cells.[1][2][3] As of 2024, lisaftoclax is undergoing multiple Phase 3 clinical trials, including studies in combination with BTK inhibitors for relapsed/refractory CLL/SLL.[2][4]
In July 2025, lisaftoclax was approved in China for the treatment of CLL or SLL in adult patients who had received at least one prior systemic therapy.[5]
