Treatment begins

So started my treatment journey on Monday.

Got the trifecta of my trial

Imbrutinib

Obinutuzumab

Venetoclax to start in 3 months.

Had a tough reaction Monday so pulled off obinutuzumab to dilute or reduce dose. Admitted to RWJ Cancer Institute will start back up this morning. 100 ml

Then tomorrow the remaining 900ml.

Fingers crossed.

19 cycle phase 3 trial.

That’s a great trial Cooler Joe. In my book you are taking the three best rock star Cll drugs out there, all at the same time. I can’t see how your Cll has much of a chance against that combo. Good luck.
