Different drug combinations have different toxicity profiles, associated complications and efficacy. Requiring lengthy discussion between patients and their doctor and treatment at a centre experienced in their delivery and care of patients being treated with them.

Q1) many patients have heard about potential treatments such as “FCR” and “BR”, how do you choose which therapy they should receive?

Q2) the side effects of CLL treatments can be significant, are CLL patient’s monitored carefully?
