Given the recent publication of another article documenting the association
of CD38 expression on CLL/SLL and a worse prognosis, our clinicians are
beginning to ask us to give CD38 results on a more frequent basis. Are other
labs performing this routinely in the evaluation of small B-cell
lymphoprolifertaive disorders and, if so, what are you running the CD38 in
combination with? Thanks in advance for any input.

Sincerely,
