Venetoclax

Venetoclax is an oral medication used to treat specific blood cancers, such as Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). It works by targeting a particular protein, called BCL-2, that many cancer cells use to survive and avoid the body's natural process of cell death. By blocking this protein, Venetoclax helps your body remove these cancer cells. In this topic, you will learn more about how this medication works, what to expect during your treatment, and how it might impact your daily life.
