Pfizer buys a company

They bought Trillium. I mention this because this company has a few blood cancer treatments in its pipeline including one that targets TP-53 mutation but for AML and NOT CLL, at least not yet. Still, with their expertise in the realm of treatments for blood cancers and now with the added resources of Pfizer, It is hopefully a good thing for drug development that may benefit us in the future given that we with CLL are the largest group among those with blood cancer.

Lua,

I read about this too. The treatment I read about targets Large B cell lymphoma so it is of interest to the CLL community.

It worked extremely well with few side effects.
