Patty and I have been enjoying Seattle. We’ve been here for 3 weeks prepping for the JCAR14 trial at SCCA/Hutch. Tomorrow is my big day- I get the CAR-T cells.I’ve been blogging on my experience on the CLL Society website http://cllsociety.org and we are adding interviews and research on CAR-T (see: https://cllsociety.org/car-t-and-other-cellular-therapies/) but that may slow down if I am part of the 90% that end up in hospital. Check out our CAR-T educational comic book while you are there on our site.Anyway, I wanted to stay in touch and look forward to continuing the conversations when I am on the far side of this with no evidence of CLL left in my blood, marrow, and nodes.Stay strong. We are all in this togetherBrianBrian Koffman MDCM DCFP, DABFM, MS EdFounder and Medical Director, CLL Society Inc.
