Playing CLL / SLL Chess: Planning Your Therapy Moves
Wednesday, October 26, 2022
12 PM PT / 1 PM MT / 2 PM CT / 3 PM ET (Duration 90 minutes)
Description:
Treating CLL / SLL is a little like a chess game, as one needs to always be thinking a few moves ahead. Most treatments for CLL / SLL are not curative, and when relapse occurs it is important to have a plan in place with some options that can knock back the disease again.
Join CLL / SLL expert Dr. Susan O’Brien, and 20-year CLL survivor Terry Evans, as they explain the CLL / SLL treatment landscape, what is known and unknown, and describe how to better participate in shared decision-making with your healthcare provider by increasing your knowledge and having a plan in place for your future treatment moves.
