The administration of axicabtagene ciloleucel in the second-line setting improved overall survival and progression-free survival vs standard-of-care treatment in patients with relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma who are at least 65 years of age.
Venetoclax Is Associated With Durable ORRs in Real-World Population of BTK Inhibitor–Exposed CLL/SLL
Venetoclax-based therapy generated durable responses both overall and in the second or third line following covalent BTK inhibitor discontinuation in real-world patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma.
Pirtobrutinib Demonstrates Durable Efficacy in Covalent BTK Inhibitor–Pretreated CLL/SLL
Pirtobrutinib continued to showcase clinically meaningful efficacy in heavily pretreated patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma who had prior exposure to a covalent BTK inhibitor.
Safety of Outpatient CAR T-Cell Therapy May Be Improved With Integrated Management Process
December 10th 2023The utilization of remote patient monitoring within the first 30 days of outpatient CAR T-cell therapy can promote patient safety, reduce costs, and decrease hospitalization rates by allowing patients with hematologic malignancies to connect with a virtual care platform.
Zanubrutinib Showcases Sustained PFS Benefit Vs Ibrutinib in R/R CLL/SLL
December 10th 2023Zanubrutinib continued to demonstrate improved progression-free survival benefit over ibrutinib in the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma, according to extended follow-up data from the phase 3 ALPINE trial.
Dr Cook on Real-World Data With Bridging Therapy and Axi-Cel in Relapsed/Refractory LBCL
December 10th 2023Michael R. Cook, MD, discusses real-world data associated with the utilization of bridging therapy prior to treatment with axicabtagene ciloleucel in patients with relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma.
Dr Goy on Outcomes From An Expanded Access Study of Brexu-Cel in Relapsed/Refractory MCL
December 10th 2023Andre Goy, MD, discusses outcomes with brexucabtagene autoleucel in patients with relapsed/refractory mantle cell lymphoma enrolled in the phase 2 ZUMA-2 trial and the expanded access ZUMA-18 study.
Ide-Cel Provides HRQOL Benefits Over Standard Regimens in R/R Multiple Myeloma
December 9th 2023Idecabtagene vicleucel resulted in meaningful improvements in symptoms, functioning, overall health status, and health-related quality of life vs standard regimens in select patients with triple-class exposed relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma, according to updated data from the phase 3 KarMMa-3 trial.
Bridging Therapy Prior to Axi-Cel Produces Favorable Real-World Outcomes in R/R LBCL
December 9th 2023Although the use of bridging therapy prior to treatment with axicabtagene ciloleucel did not improve efficacy or safety outcomes for patients with relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma, responses to bridging therapy may be prognostic of favorable outcomes after axi-cel administration.
Revumenib Combo Showcases Early Activity in Relapsed/Refractory AML
