Rachel E. Rau, MD, pediatric oncologist, Seattle Children’s Hospital, University of Washington, discusses results from the phase 3 Children’s Oncology Group Study AALL1731 (NCT03914625), which showed that adding blinatumomab (Blincyto) to chemotherapy improved 3-year disease-free survival rates in newly diagnosed, standard risk pediatric B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Rau and colleagues shared these results in a presentation at the 2024 ASH Annual Meeting.
