Obinutuzumab and Venetoclax cleared for use in UK

If I read this right, it seems that this is the new go-to combination in the UK? I think I read somewhere that this is also sometimes combined with ibrutinib or acalabrutinib?

Anyway, it looks encouraging that the NHS, if I've read this right, are improving their treatment.

If I understand rightly, Obinutuzumab and Venetoclax are cleared for use in England and Wales (i.e. not yet in Scotland; I'm not sure about Northern Ireland). Does anyone know how soon they might be available in Scotland?

Not what you're looking for?
