Cll chromosome 17p deletion

I was diagnosed with cll 3 years ago. Doing well.

I changed oncologists and the FISH test showed I have the 17p deletion.

Panicked!

Would love to hear from others with this diagnosis.

Thank you.

What Percentage 17P Deleted? I was 55%. I did well on a clinical trial called Captivate for Imbruvica plus Venetoclax. See my past posts.

People are doing much better on the targeted drugs like those now,

Be well,
