A recent study found that Hodgkin lymphoma patients with active disease achieved clinical responses with tumor-specific T cells that were genetically modified to be rendered resistant to transforming growth factor beta, a cytokine expressed by most human cancers.
PD-L1 expression was more common among patients with the GCB subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, and PD-L1 positivity predicted shorter survival.
BCR-ABL1 transcript levels at time points within the first year of therapy for CML can best predict the achievement of a deep molecular response.
Treatment with carfilzomib for multiple myeloma was associated with increased incidence of cardiovascular adverse events, especially with higher doses.
Continuous treatment with lenalidomide/dexamethasone significantly improved survival in patients with transplant-ineligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.
This video highlights research that found that single-cell RNA sequencing can better characterize patients and potentially improve multiple myeloma treatment in a more personalized manner.
This video highlights a study that establishes mutated CALR as a myeloproliferative neoplasms–specific tumor antigen and provides a rationale for the development of immunotherapies targeting mutated CALR.
Early disease progression for chronic lymphocytic leukemia was a robust prognostic factor for worse overall survival in patients treated with chemoimmunotherapy.
This video reviews classic syndromes associated with increased leukemia susceptibility and highlights pediatric patients who may be at increased risk for an inherited leukemia predisposition and should receive additional work-up.
Venetoclax has durable clinical activity in patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia whose disease progressed during or after ibrutinib therapy.
This video highlights research into the use of post-transplant therapies to prevent or treat disease recurrence following allogeneic stem cell transplantation.
A combination of the FLT3 kinase inhibitor quizartinib with 5-azacitidine or low-dose cytarabine is active in patients with FLT3-ITD mutated myeloid leukemias, according to a new study.
CAR T cells targeting CD19 can be effective at treating relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma or follicular lymphoma, with high rates of durable remission.
A new study has found that there are significant gaps in participation among people aged 75 and older in clinical trials of hematologic malignancies when considered against the incidence of these malignancies in this age group.
This video reviews updates on the treatment and biology of splenic and nodal marginal zone lymphoma.
History of Epstein-Barr virus or immunosuppression did not affect outcomes for patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
In this video reviews the management of nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma.
This video highlights results of a study that examined predictors for unplanned hospital readmissions in patients with hematologic malignancies.
This video reviews novel treatment approaches in the management of higher-risk myelodysplastic syndromes.
In those with DLBCL, Burkitt lymphoma, and Hodgkin lymphoma, cure is often achieved. Furthermore, in the salvage setting, whether auto-HCT or allo-HCT is used, the same appears to be true. A great deal of progress has been made in the treatment of lymphoma in patients with HIV infection, but more remains to be done before outcomes are comparable to those of the general population.
This video reviews the phase I portion of a trial testing glasdegib in patients with primary/secondary myelofibrosis previously treated with JAK inhibitors.
This video highlights a phase II trial that tested the addition of nivolumab to combination induction chemotherapy of cytarabine and idarubicin for patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia.
This video reviews the treatment of mantle cell lymphoma cases that do not fit the typical mold.
This video highlights results of a phase I study of idasanutlin (RG7388) in patients with refractory polycythemia vera and essential thrombocythemia.
This video highlights results of a retrospective review that examined survival and other outcomes in younger mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) patients who received consolidation with autologous hematopoietic cell transplant during first remission.
