Hi,
I’m 42yoa and have all the bad markers (17p, TP53, etc). Unfortunately, a week ago I was officially diagnosed with RT. I started showing symptoms a month ago and the nodes in my mediastinal area of chest are already 10.5cm large. Still waiting on PET scan to see severity but biopsy already confirmed diagnosis.
I’ve spoken to two different specialist over the last two days and they both said I should start RCHOP+Venetoclax even though I have the TP53 mutation. Has anyone gone through this and had TP53? Just wondering if anyone has had any success? I’m trying to persuade them to do immunotherapy instead as my first line therapy such as P/V/O (similar to the trial at MDA); however, the specialist are hesitant because theres no published data to support it for RT yet.
Would love to hear other peoples experiences and the treatment that worked and/or didn’t work for you with RT.
