David Sallman, MD, discusses the examination of magrolimab in acute myeloid leukemia.

In acute myeloid leukemia, investigators are exploring novel agents engineered to target adhesion factors, which can mobilize persistent leukemic stem cells from the bone marrow niche.

David Sallman, MD, provides perspective on the novel agent uproleselan, its efficacy in a phase 1/2 trial, and its investigation in phase 3 trials in acute myeloid leukemia.

Philippe E. Spiess, MD, MS, FACS, discusses the rationale for investigating the MTAP pathway in genitourinary cancers.

Frederick Locke, MD, discusses the phase 3 ZUMA-7 trial examining axicabtagene ciloleucel in the second-line treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma, safety and efficacy findings with the therapy, and the significance of the data that have been reported to date.

David Sallman, MD, discusses the role of uproleselan (GMI-1271) when utilized in acute myeloid leukemia.

Zeynep Eroglu, MD, discusses the potential of ctDNA as a noninvasive biomarker in melanoma, outlines different assays under development, and details potential opportunities to leverage ctDNA in treatment decision making.

David Sallman, MD, discusses responses achieved a first-in-human dose escalation/dose expansion phase 1/1b clinical trial of an UltraCAR-T agent, PRGN-3006, in patients with acute myeloid leukemia and higher-risk myelodysplastic syndrome with hypomethylating agent failure.

Axicabtagene ciloleucel demonstrated favorable efficacy in elderly patients and those with other comorbidities with large B-cell lymphoma; however, adverse events were more common in some of these populations and ECOG performance status ≥2 was associated with worse outcomes and more adverse events, according to a large real-world study presented at the 2021 ASH Annual Meeting.

Dr. Shah and Dr. Wang discuss the management of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, the referral process, and the need for academic and community collaboration for CAR T-cell therapy in hematologic malignancies.

Axicabtagene ciloleucel led to a 60% improvement in event-free survival compared with standard-of-care chemotherapy as second-line treatment for patients with relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma.

Frederick Locke, MD, discusses the results of the phase 3 ZUMA-7 trial in patients with large B-cell lymphoma that were presented at the 2021 ASH Annual Meeting & Exposition.

An observational single-center study suggests that mRNA-1273 SARS CoV-2 vaccination induces a strong antibody response in patients with acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome, according to observational results presented during the 2021 ASH Annual Meeting.

Although BCMA-directed CAR T-cell therapy has shown early and deep responses in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma, there is much more to learn about optimal cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity management and treatment sequencing, particularly as off-the-shelf T-cell therapies, bispecific antibodies, and non–BCMA-directed therapies become available.
