18. Update after 2 weeks in the daily trial

I had my weekly blood/labs/doctor visit today at the Fred Hutchinson in Seattle for the clinical trial I am on.

A Partial Update On What The ABT-199 Has Done In Two Weeks Have Been On This Drug Daily


Day one of taking the daily ABT-199 pill versus 2 weeks later of a daily pill

``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````

WBC 11,870 ~ 5,670  (Normal is anywhere between 4.3 and 10.0)

(Also significant as my WBC went from 8,100 to 11,870 in one week after the 7 day wait from the first pill to taking the daily pill) 

Lymphocytes (ALC) 7.84 ~ 2.38  (Anything over 4.8 is considered high)

Some very good results in only 2 weeks of taking a daily pill!! YAY!!!!!

The first week was 50 mg a day, the 2nd week was 150 mg a day. And tomorrow, the beginning of week 3 will have me at 1,200 mg a day.

I asked the trial coordinators why they were picking on me as the biggest known dose they know of is 800 mg a day. They smiled and said yes we are, and because partially Abbott (who is putting on the trial), said I was the youngest and healthiest, without other underlying health problems, who is currently on the trial with the 6Q, 11Q and 13Q deletions. And with an un-mutated status showing CD5, CD20, CD38, CD19, CD45.
Did I hear BINGO out there?

I asked about the ones on the trial with the 17p, but only got an answer that I was over 10 years younger and much healthier than those. (Ha, calling someone with CLL/SLL healthy?). So I guess I get to be the lucky lab rat?!?



My new breakfast of champions.

Two 300 mg pills of Allopurinol (with a low fat breakfast, usually a bowl of oatmeal),


Then twelve 100 mg pills of the ABT-199 all within 30 minutes of eating the low fat 

breakfast,  (plus it takes just bout a full bottle of water to down the 12 pills!)

Needless to say I am FULL!!
