“I think that this is an area that is exploding. Working with drug development, I see new agents all the time, with unique targets I've never heard about, with targets I have heard about used in a different way. So, I really think we're going to see more and more bispecifics. A lot of these drugs are used second line, third line, fourth line. I would not be surprised if they moved up in treatment, especially as we learn safer ways to give these drugs,” ONS member Moe Schwartz, PharmD, BCOP, FHOP, professor of pharmacy practice at the James L. Winkle College of Pharmacy at the University of Cincinnati, OH, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about bispecific antibodies.

That was granted accelerated approval for the treatment of patients with Philadelphia chromosome–negative relapsed or refractory B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia. It is a bispecific that targets CD19-expressing tumor cells and CD3 on T cells. It's the original bispecific T-cell engager and is often called a ‘BiTE.'” TS 2:11 “The term ‘bispecific' means that this is an artificial protein that's developed to hit two different antigens simultaneously. They can be two different epitopes on the same antigen. They can be an antigen on a cancer cell and CD3 on a T cell that kind of recruits the T cell to the cancer. So, there are different types [of bispecific antibodies]. The subtype that we often talk about are bispecific T-cell engagers, which are those bispecifics that do target the T cell. And currently, the target on the T cell that's utilized is the CD3 molecule. That's not the only one that will be used in the future because there's a lot of work being done on other types of T-cell engagers.” TS 4:21 “The targets for lymphoma are CD20. Those are bispecific T-cell engagers that hit CD20 on the lymphoma cell, as well as CD3 on a T cell. ... In myeloma, we have two different targets that have been utilized. One is BCMA or B-cell maturation antigen. That sits on the surface of myeloma cells and on some healthy B cells. ... There's also a target used in myeloma that's called GPRC5D, which stands for G protein–coupled receptor, class C, group 5, member D. ... In small cell lung cancer, there's delta-like ligand 3 (DLL3); it's part of the NOTCH pathway. ... And then this year, we've had a couple agents come out that target HER2.” TS 6:52 “[Toxicities] are very dependent on what your target is. ... The bispecific T-cell engager that's used in myeloma that targets the GPRC5D is also expressed on tissues that produce hard keratin like hair follicles and actually, within the tongue. So the toxicities that we see with that agent are something you wouldn't expect to see if you were using a myeloma agent. You see nail and skin issues. You see taste problems. So it's very specific about the target, which says to me, that every time a new one of these agents comes out, I have to learn about the target that helps me learn about the toxicity. I find that fascinating and really appreciate that.” TS 16:19 “Cytokine release syndrome has been one of the areas that drug development has really focused on to see how they can help mitigate the severity [of it]. ... [One of] the strategies that has been incorporated and studied in clinical trials is the step-up dosing scheme. [It's] where you give initial small doses and over time, increase the dose to the dose you're going to continue with. Usually, monitoring in the hospital is required by the FDA approval for anywhere from 28–48 hours for the first couple of doses. And that's a real common strategy that you'll see. Premedication with H2 blockers, H1 blockers, sometimes steroids. These are also things that are incorporated within the approvals of these drugs and are important to look at.” TS 20:53

Guest: Mateo Mejia Saldarriaga, M.D. Mateo Mejia Saldarriaga, M.D., a hematologist/oncologist at NewYork-Presbyterian and Weill Cornell Medicine, explains how he and his team conducted a retrospective study that identified a biomarker to enhance treatment planning for BCMA CAR T-cell therapy in multiple myeloma. By measuring absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) through a routine CBC 15 days after a CAR T-cell therapy injection, they found patients with an ALC > 1,000 had a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 30 months whereas patients with an ALC ≤ 500 had a median PFS of 6 months. This new biomarker is now being leveraged to help doctors predict whether a patient is benefiting from treatment in as early as 15 days. © 2025 NewYork-Presbyterian

Host: Charles Turck, PharmD, BCPS, BCCCP Guest: Manali Kamdar, MD Although CAR T-cell therapies have transformed the treatment of B-cell malignancies, a major logistical and socioeconomic barrier remains: patients are typically required to stay near a certified treatment center for at least 4 weeks after infusion to manage potential adverse events. So to help improve patient access, a recent study explored exactly when toxicities occur and whether post-infusion monitoring could be shortened without compromising safety. And based on the findings, it's time to rethink the 4-week monitoring window. To learn more about the study's results and what they mean for patient monitoring, safety, and broader outcomes, tune in to hear Dr. Charles Turck speak with Dr. Manali Kamdar, who authored a poster on this topic that was presented at the 2025 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting.

Welcome to the Oncology Brothers podcast! In this episode, hosts Rahul and Rohit Gosain are joined by Dr. John Allan from New York Presbyterian Hospital to discuss the latest highlights from ASH 2024, focusing on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL). We dived into three key studies: 1. SEQUOIA Update: Discover how this study led to the approval of Zanubrutinib in the frontline setting and its impressive progression-free survival rates compared to traditional chemotherapy. 2. AMPLIFY Study: Learn about the exciting combination of Acalabrutinib with Venetoclax and Obinutuzumab, and how it may pave the way for the first oral doublet/triplet combination approval in the U.S. 3. Ongoing Trials: We touch on the CELESTIAL TN-CLL trial and the promising combination of Zanubrutinib with Sonrotoclax, a new BCL-2 inhibitor. Additionally, we discuss the evolving role of CAR-T therapy in CLL, especially for patients who have progressed through multiple lines of treatment. Join us for an insightful discussion on the future of CLL treatment options, the importance of balancing efficacy and side effects, and the exciting developments in the field.

In a Chinese study, donor CAR-T cells sent autoimmune diseases into remission. There's hope that the therapy is scalable. And, scientists used decades of yellow-bellied marmot research to find a way to measure how adverse events affect wild animals' survival.CAR-T Cell Therapies Show Promise For Autoimmune DiseasesFor decades, immunologists have explored CAR-T cell therapy as an effective tool to fight blood cancer. Increasingly, CAR-T cells are being explored as a potential silver bullet for treating autoimmune diseases, like lupus—which currently have no cure.Thus far, CAR-T cell therapy has largely used CRISPR-modified immune cells from a person to treat that person's own diseases. But new research from China has made a huge step forward for this treatment: Researchers were successful in using donated CAR-T cells from one person to treat another person's systemic sclerosis, an autoimmune condition that causes atypical growth of connective tissues.If donor CAR-T cell therapy does indeed work, as posited in this paper, it could mean the therapy is more scalable than it would be otherwise. Joining Ira to talk about this study and its potential impact is Daniel Baker, PhD student in the immunology lab of Dr. Carl June at the University of Pennsylvania.Measuring The Effects Of Early Life Adversity—In MarmotsIt's well-established in psychology that if you experience trauma as a child, chances are it'll impact your physical and mental health as an adult, and could even affect your economic status. In academic terms, this is called early childhood adversity. And psychologists have developed a scoring system for measuring the cumulative effect of adverse childhood experiences, which can include abuse and household dysfunction, and it can help predict health risks later in life.So we can specifically measure that in humans. But what about other animals? If you've adopted a dog that's had a turbulent past, you know that that can result in reclusive or skittish behavior as an adult. But there hasn't been a good way to measure it in wild animals.Well, a new study from UCLA, published in the journal Ecology Letters, establishes a similar index for wild animals, and it used decades of findings from a mammal: the yellow-bellied marmot. So how could it help conservation efforts for other animals?Ira Flatow talks with Xochitl Ortiz-Ross, a PhD student in ecology and evolutionary biology at UCLA, and one of the authors on that study.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.
