Both clinicians and patients should have as much information as possible to participate in shared decision-making for CLL care, says Jacob D. Soumerai, MD.

Sequencing different treatments in the first 3 lines of therapy represents a challenge in chronic lymphocytic leukemia, according to Deborah Stephens, DO.

Results from the FELIX study showed that obe-cel induces high rates of MRD-negative remission in relapsed/refractory B-ALL, leading to improved EFS and OS.

The analysis saw minimal evidence of increased relapse among patients with hematologic cancers and minimal residual disease vs those without.

Obe-cel shows efficacy in R/R B-ALL, especially in those with a favorable CAR-HT risk profile, according to data from the phase 1/2 FELIX study.

A total of 3 patients with AML treated with the lowest dose of tuspetinib at 40 mg completed the first cycle of treatment with no dose-limiting toxicities.

Early INB-100 results showed the potential to achieve durable remissions and improve survival in patients with complex leukemias, particularly AML.

Ziftomenib elicited positive responses in patients with NPM1-mutant acute myeloid leukemia, meeting the primary end point of the phase 2 KOMET-001 trial.

Interim phase 3 results revealed a median survival of at least 13.5 months with galinpepimut-S vs 6 months with standard of care in acute myeloid leukemia.

At a median follow-up of 61.2 months, zanabrutinib demonstrated superior PFS vs bendamustine and rituximab in patients with CLL and SLL.

Uproleselan plus chemotherapy did not demonstrate clinical benefit over chemotherapy alone, though did show an acceptable safety profile.

Researchers at Stanford University have conducted a phase 1 clinical trial evaluating the combination of a bispecific CAR T-cell therapy targeting CD19 and CD22 with NKTR-255.

In the phase 1b/2 FELIX study, obecabtagene autoleucel was associated with low incidence of grade 3 or higher immune-related toxicity.

Median duration on bezuclastinib was 56 weeks vs 40 weeks for placebo in non-advanced systemic mastocytosis, the phase 2 Summit trial reported.

From 2013 to 2022, the rate of important identified risks associated with ponatinib in the treatment of those with ALL or CML had decreased.

Data shown at ASH 2024 demonstrated higher OS rates with anti-CD20 antibodies in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma.

For patients with HMA–naive chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, an IO-202 combo demonstrated durable responses, a phase 1b study found.

Pirtobrutinib sustained BTK inhibition and improved progression-free survival in patients with CLL and SLL, data from the phase 3 BRUIN CLL-321 trial showed.

Compared with second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors, asciminib was better tolerated in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia.

Regardless of high-risk features, brexucabtagene autoleucel demonstrated positive and durable responses in BTK-naive MCL.

Phase 2 results showed high undetectable MRD rates with pirtobrutinib, venetoclax, and obinutuzumab for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Findings from the phase 1/2 CaDAnCe-101 trial showed that promising ORRs in R/R WM and R/R CLL/SLL stemmed from BGB-16673 treatment.

Phase 3 data show meaningful benefits with uproleselan in patients with primary refractory AML and post-transplant survival.

Zanubrutinib maintained a PFS benefit at 5 years vs benadmustine and rituximab for patients with CLL/SLL.
