Obinutuzumab Question
Hello: As I posted recently that I’m going through O + V treatment presently. During December I will complete three weeks of Obin infusions. The first week was broken into two days, this week was one day and next week is one day. My question is how many more months of O infusions will I get after

Is Distilled water better to consume during treatment ?
I am shortly coming off watch and wait and will start treatment with
obinutuzumab
and Venetoclax. I understand I will have to increase drinking water to flush out drugs and waste products.

Compromised Immunity: So What Does That Really Mean?
I am now on Acalabrutinib and had a “side series” of
Obinutuzumab
. Now my question: I understand that when our disease is active, we are considered to have a compromised immune system and we must take precautions to avoid any type exposure to infections of any kind.

Feeling a bit down. Slipped disc and just been told that I should start treatment soon.
They are proposing a combination of
Obinutuzumab
and then Venetoclax - unless I have misunderstood , it was a bit of a blur. I would really value the views of the knowledgeable people in this group.

Time-limited Pirtobrutinib triple for treatment naive CLL or Richters at M.D. Anderson
It calls for: 28 day cycles (this is standard, I believe) Clinic visits every week for the first 2 cycles, and then every other week for the remaining cycles. 7 cycles of pirtobrutinib 6 cycles of
Obinutuzumab
, 1 infusion per month, with 4 infusions the first cycle (day 1, 2, 8, & 15) .

CLL Society interview - Dr. Shahzad Mustafa on What it Means to be Immunocompromised for Patients with CLL/SLL January 13, 2023
- How do monoclonal antibody therapies like rituximab and
obinutuzumab
affect the immune response? Anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies like rituximab and
obinutuzumab
are commonly used therapies for treating CLL/SLL. They target the CD20 protein that is expressed on the surface of all B cells.

CLL Treatment Options
I have been offered 2 treatment options - a 1 Year Course of
Obinutuzumab
Infusion plus Venetoclax tablets; or Acalabrutinib Tablets for ever. I would like to understand the comparative results of the two options including likely side effects so that I can make a choice. Thanks

CLL diagnosis with Obinutuzumab and Ventoclax offered as treatment
I have been advised to start immunotherapy treatment soon, a combination of
Obinutuzumab
and Venetoclax. I also have had a skin cancer growth develop on my left forearm which has been diagnosed as a low-grade squamous cell carcinoma. Has anyone else had skin cancer developed with CLL?

Teeth!
Following three months of intermittent neutropenia, steroids and 1 month of
Obinutuzumab
, just noticed some really marked yellow staining on my teeth, around the gums where you'd expect plaque/bacteria to pool. Slightly horrified as I've been going all out to keep them clean to prevent infection.

Internet censorship?
As I mentioned before, I had anaphylactic shock during first infusion with
obinutuzumab
, which does not appear to be uncommon. There was a man across from me in my last infusion group who had same reaction. Quick witted infusion nurse jabbed me with EpiPen, which brought me back to life.

Obinutuzumab and Venetoclax
Hi everyone, I start my
Obinutuzumab
infusion on October 26th. I’ve read most everyone’s experiences on the upcoming treatment. Been quite a help. Put me at ease. my one question with
Obinutuzumab
is that it’s not weight specific. I’ve always have been in shape with working out and jogging.

LDH Increase after first Obinutuzumab infusion
Greetings, all - My husband had his first
Obinutuzumab
Monday October 24 (100 mg) and Tuesday (900 mg). I noticed that his LDH went from 239 (before) to 568 (after). Is this normal or should we be concerned?
