As a consequence, about one third of CLL patients die of a second primary malignancy, such as melanoma, colon cancer, and pancreatic cancer. Some of these cancers have well-recognised screening procedures to detect early stage cancers, which can have a better outcome to treatment then, compared to when they are picked up when symptoms develop.<\/p>\n<p>Regular skin checks, and colonoscopy are two good examples of this screening approach.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CLLANZ provided some assistance for a research project to be done as a summer studentship, by then fifth year medical [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":19965,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,12,17],"tags":[30,31,87,88,89],"class_list":["post-19963","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorised","category-news-media","category-featured","tag-blood-cancer","tag-cll-advocates","tag-andrew-weston","tag-american-society-of-hematology","tag-haematology"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/clladvocates.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/ASH_Blood.png","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/clladvocates.nz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19963","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/clladvocates.nz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/clladvocates.nz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/clladvocates.nz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/clladvocates.nz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=19963"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/clladvocates.nz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19963\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19972,"href":"https:\/\/clladvocates.nz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19963\/revisions\/19972"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/clladvocates.nz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/19965"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/clladvocates.nz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=19963"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/clladvocates.nz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=19963"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/clladvocates.nz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=19963"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
