Lymph node biopsy to rule out Richtors
So I got the shock of my life. My hematologist wants to have me undergo a fine needle biopsy to rule out RS. They will biopsy the largest node. It’s 5 cm. Well that was a kick to the stomach.

ASH 2018: Professor Peter Hillmen on the Combination of Ibrutinib and Obinutuzumab in CLL: Timing Matters
It matters when the monoclonal antibody is added for chronic

leukemia
patients. Patients receiving obinutuzumab after >1 year prior ibrutinib on its own achieved a higher response rate compared to those who started the two drugs together.
