Knox Update - 11/15
Knox Update - First of all, thank you for continuing to pray for Knox and all of us...this journey continues to have unexpected layers...Knox's second dose of T cells have given out and he again has early B cell return...again, we are thankful that there currently aren't any signs of relapse, but with nothing going on in his body to run surveillance, there's that concern...while in theory, the short lived T cells could have had an effect on any remaining, undetectable leukemia, clinically it's considered unlikely and thus further therapy is needed...so, after discussions on what to do, we have decided to re-do the CAR T therapy, but with a newer version...so, Jessi and Knox will head to Philadelphia tomorrow morning and will be there for a few days...Knox will have T cells collected on Wednesday, then they will come back home...from there we will wait for the T cells to be engineered and then we'll go back up (guessing January sometime) and will be there again for 6...
