Advice
NICE is unable to make a recommendation about the use in the NHS of idelalisib with ofatumumab for treating chronic lymphocytic leukaemia because no evidence submission was received from Gilead Sciences. The company has confirmed that it does not intend to make a submission.
Information
If NHS organisations wish to consider idelalisib with ofatumumab for treating chronic lymphocytic leukaemia, they should follow the advice on rational local decision-making in the NHS Constitution for England and the NHS Commissioning Board and Clinical Commissioning Groups (Responsibilities and Standing Rules) Regulations 2012. This outlines the approach that should be taken when there is no NICE guidance.
NICE will review the position if the company decides that it wants to make an evidence submission.
