CLL treatment that concentrates in shrinking the spleen without undergoing chemo

Also, could you tell me why you chose immunotherapy over targeted therapy? I am battling between the two based on all my research. I am seeing the hematologist Wednesday. Thanks, Rich

It was basically my hematologist (Henry Ford health in Michigan) recommendation and my health advocate who is my daughter, herself a cancer survivor and an advocate of discussing any and all treatment options available with the doctor or team responsible for your treatment.
