Yeah, the part where the first doc discussed how most people die from the medication due to the weakened immunesystem was quite interesting. It was also nice to see how good the predicictions for Wegs have gone.
I think the graph shown there looked quite good after the first year, better than the ones I've seen before. I mean when looking at these 20 year graphs we should take into account that the average age for diagnosis is fairly high (about 55 if I remember correctly) so for someone dx'd at 80 a 20 year graph might not look that nice even without a serious disease. Dunno if they had made any corrections for that.
I have that article about Aza vs RTX for maintenance, I think it said along the lines that 30% relapsed within 2 years of using Aza while only 5% of the RTX group relapsed. A quick google would probably find the summary.
Diagnosed 08/2013, Relapse 07/2014, Relapse 5/2017 (although early signs of it from 12/2016)
