Development of targeted therapies for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) represents an ongoing challenge for the field. There is substantial promise, however, in several different approaches to targeted AML therapy, including IDH inhibitors, FLT3 inhibitors, and others.
Clinicians and patients now have several options for frontline management of chronic lymphocytic leukemia; exactly which option is preferred remains up for debate.
Helping patients through toxicities and discomfort from multiple myeloma and its therapies remains a challenge and must be addressed with supportive care practices.
The 5-year survival rate for relapsed/refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia has been below 10%. Immunotherapies, however, are starting to challenge that paradigm.
Because of the high cure rate in early-stage classical Hodgkin lymphoma, reducing toxicity is a primary concern. One idea for doing so is a subject of ongoing research: is elimination of all radiotherapy in many of these patients a possibility?
As more and more new options come on the market, integrating them into proper management of multiple myeloma has become an important challenge.
The idea of determining the “cell of origin” in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, and using it as a prognostic indicator or to guide treatment, remains somewhat controversial, but is there now a way that the cell of origin can be used?
In this interview we discuss the different types of T-cell lymphomas and how supportive care is used in the management of these malignancies.
In this video we discuss the initial symptoms and diagnosis of multiple myeloma as well as upfront treatment with autologous stem cell transplantation and newer agents.
In this video we discuss the goals of shared-decision making in hematologic malignancies and touch upon different scenarios where its use may be appropriate.
