Reaching MRD negative on ibrutinib

Hi all

I wondered whether anyone here has reached MRD negative on ibrutinib and stopped treatment. My partner is expecting to start treatment soon, probably through the Flair Trial in the UK. On this you now stop getting ibrutinib ( if you get in in the first place) when you become MRD negative. I wondered if anyone here has achieved this and how long it took. Do you feel cured and able to get on with your life?

Thanks to all

I was wondering the same thing? I’ve just been told I’m MRD negative but my consultant says I have to carry on taking Ibrutinib.

Not what you're looking for?
