In institutional setting the nurse administers the drag and monitors the patient for therapeutic effect and adverse reactions. Some drugs have the potential to be toxic (harmful). The nurse plays a critical role in evaluating the patient for toxic effects. When these dragp are prescribed to be taken at home, the nurse provides patient and family education about the drag.

Each one plays an important role in care of the cancer patient. The pharmacist s role may include education of patients and family members, education of staff about new agents and safety issues, preparation of therapies, resolution of reimbursement issues, development of order sets, and participation in clinical trials.

The lymph node microenvironment represents a niche where CLL cells interact with different types of cells including monocyte-derived nurse-like cells (NLC), CD3+ CD4+ CD154+ T cells, mesenchymal stromal cells, dendritic cells, and endothelial cells (15). In addition to cell-cell interactions, CLL cells are also exposed to a variety of soluble factors such as antigens, cytokines, and chemokines (2). It is the combination of such signals that renders CLL cells less susceptible to chemotherapy and promotes clonal evolution and drug resistance. Thus, the role of the microenvironment needs to be carefully considered in order to develop novel and more effective therapies for CLL treatment (16). In particular, the efficacy of new drugs must be evaluated under experimental conditions that recapitulate (or at least partially mimic) the CLL microenvironment.
