AML, TP53 and chromosome defects

Hello @Georgia1234, welcome to the forum, though of course I’m sorry about your Dad’s diagnosis that brought you here.

I’m hoping other community members will share their own experiences but, in the meantime, we do have information about Venetoclax and Azacitidine as a treatment combination on our website, as well as more general information about AML and how prognosis is assessed, which might help frame some of the conversations you’re having with the team.

There are a few other threads on the forum from families in similar situations, including this recent one from someone whose partner is also starting Venetoclax and Azacitidine. You find other relevant threads by going to the ‘Related’ section at the bottom of this page.

Our Support Line is also there for you and your family if you need someone to talk to while you’re processing all of this, or have any questions for our blood cancer nurses: 0808 2080 888 (option 1) or support@bloodcancer.org.uk.

Take care,
