Marginal Zone Lymphoma experts discussed recent advancements in all areas of MZL, while calling attention to gaps in knowledge in the 2024 MZL Scientific Workshop.
A multitude of factors contributes to cancer disparities. Addressing these disparities among racial/ethnic minority populations with blood cancers requires multilevel models of the interactions between relevant factors and the performance of translational research that uses knowledge of cancer biology to develop and test the feasibility of interventions that can impact human endpoints. To be effective, efforts should be made to advance these research findings to applications that can transform clinical practice and health care delivery. We reviewed the literature to define a framework for overcoming disparities for patients with hematologic malignancies and to improve patient enrollment in clinical trials.
Teresa Macarulla, MD, PhD, and Cindy Neuzillet, MD, PhD, offer key takeaways and conclude their discussion by offering advice for clinicians treating patients with NRG1 fusion–positive malignancies.
