Rituximab/Remission?
what happens next in terms of my
rituximab
infusions? Can they deny me this or any other treatment? If this medication put the brakes on this beast, is there a point in stopping them? Thank you

Optimal Treatment Combinations in the Management of CLL/SLL Jeff Sharman, MD Provided by Clinical Care Options, LLC
In the pivotal studies for patients with R/R CLL, idelalisib was combined with
rituximab
vs
rituximab
alone; however, duvelisib was studied as monotherapy vs ofatumumab.

Compromised Immunity: So What Does That Really Mean?
Have had two courses of
Rituximab
(2006 and again in 2015). Relapsed again in 2022 with added diagnosis of 17q and TP53. I am now on Acalabrutinib and had a “side series” of Obinutuzumab.

Immunocompromised
I’m currently in a clinical trial receiving infusions of a drug similar to
rituximab
, and therefore immunocompromised. I am a public employee and in a battle with my employer. I was working remotely for 2 years, and my job is easily accomplished remotely.

Rituximab or Baricitinib
I saw my RA consultant today after having a flare up in the last week, he has temporarily put me on prednisone for 4 weeks as well as my methotrexate, he has suggested I go on one of the above biological drugs but worried about side effects, can anyone advise or recommend either

CLL Staging
Either
Rituximab
or Venetoclax. My husband is always dismissive of his condition and does not want to discuss with me as he thinks he is way off becoming unwell. He also doesn't want to worry me. I would like to know if anyone can give me an idea of what stage of CLL he has.

Rituximab
Im about to have my first infusion of
rituximab
. Can anyone who has been on it tell me if they've had many infections as a result? And have they cut out certain foods that are known to be risky i.e paté, soft cheeses etc?

The bumpy journey of a relapsed CLL with a weird and confusing chest CT scan
Due to my poor blood picture, it was decided that I should start treatment (
Rituximab
and venetoclax) asap and the lung situation monitored and hopefully respond to treatment as there was discussion it could be cll in the lungs.

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.

Reply to issues with Spleen
Hi, I agree with most of these comments on here that the enlargement of your spleen is an indication perhaps that you are ready for some form of treatment, not removal. I had chemotherapy in 2020 and my spleen was massive. After a treatment cycle of FCR for 6 months and neutropenia sepsis for 10

Hi everyone, My father has recently started Acalabrutinib 5 days ago. He was diagnosed with CLL in 2007 and has received FCR (twice) and Benda-Ritux once. His CLL only went into partial remission on benda-ritux and has come back after one year since his last cycle of BR. I am worried regarding the
