I won't qualify having been diagnosed 3 year ago, but if you've been diagnosed within 12 months and are asymptomatic this looks promising.
Testing Early Treatment for Patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (SLL)
Thanks for bringing this important EVOLVE trial, to people’s attention.
There’s also some information about it in this post:
Interesting. I wonder how easy or different it will be to get willing participants. I’m on the no way in hell side because there is a percentage of W&W folks that will never need treatment so why risk taking meds that may cause other issues. I’m sure there is much to learn in this study.
Only patients at higher risk of their CLL progressing to treatment are eligible for this trial.
“Participants must have CLL-International Prognostic Index (CLL-IPI) score >= 4 and/or complex cytogenetics (defined as 3+ chromosomal abnormalities)”
Excellent trial There is so much research and eventual cure in a near future 🤞🏻 Thank you for this uplifting post.Dana
Hello CLLnewbie
Testing Early Treatment for CLL patients is worth while pursuing, I hope all those involved come out with good ending.
HUGE VitD3 study at Mayo Clinic to include CLL
ATTENTION CLL + SLL PATIENTS AND CAREGIVERS
Acalabrutinib and Obinutuzumab for Frontline CLL Treatment
