In this week's episode we'll learn about how by combining PET response with circulating tumor DNA, or  ctDNA, in newly treated patients with follicular lymphoma, investigators identify those patients likely to progress within 24 months of initial treatment, also known as POD24. After that: Immune hotspots in aplastic anemia. These newly identified hotspots potentially represent sites in the bone marrow where the active immune response takes place, driving the destruction of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. Finally, allogeneic transplantation for Hodgkin lymphoma in the checkpoint inhibitor era. In a large, retrospective study, patients with prior checkpoint inhibitor exposure had remarkable outcomes, particularly when post-transplant cyclophosphamide was used.Featured Articles: Combined PET and ctDNA response as predictors of POD24 for follicular lymphoma after first-line induction treatmentImaging Mass Cytometry Reveals the Order of Events in the Pathogenesis of Immune-Mediated Aplastic AnemiaOutcomes of Allogeneic HCT in Hodgkin Lymphoma in the Era of Checkpoint Inhibitors: A Joint CIBMTR and EBMT Analysis

In a phase 2 study, itacitinib was well tolerated and demonstrated promising reductions in the incidence of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity. After that: investigators report direct interactions between ChAdOx1 and platelets under arterial shear conditions. Investigators say it's a novel biophysical mechanism that potentially contributes to post-vaccination arterial thrombosis. Finally, we explore lineage switch, an emerging form of acute leukemia relapse with dismal outcomes. It arises rapidly following antigen-targeted immunotherapy, highlighting the importance of advanced methods for detection and treatment.Featured Articles: Itacitinib for the prevention of IEC therapy–associated CRS: results from the 2-part phase 2 INCB 39110-211 studyShear-dependent platelet aggregation by ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine: a novel biophysical mechanism for arterial thrombosisProject EVOLVE: an international analysis of postimmunotherapy lineage switch, an emergent form of relapse in leukemia

In this week's episode, we'll learn about using AI to assess transplant risk in myelofibrosis. In a step toward personalized medicine, researchers report on a machine learning model that identifies 25% of patients with poor outcomes. After that: preventing priapism in men with sickle cell anemia. A recent phase 2 feasibility study shows high rates of recruitment, retention, and adherence to oral therapies, coupled with a significant reduction in the risk of this difficult complication. Finally, new research indicates that hallmarks of terminal T-cell exhaustion are absent in multiple myeloma, from diagnosis through maintenance therapy. We explore these provocative and counterintuitive findings arising from profiling of blood and marrow samples.Featured Articles:Use of machine learning techniques to predict poor survival after hematopoietic cell transplantation for myelofibrosisA controlled trial for preventing priapism in sickle cell anemia: hydroxyurea plus placebo vs hydroxyurea plus tadalafilHallmarks of T-cell exhaustion and antigen experience are absent in multiple myeloma from diagnosis to maintenance therapy

This episode of Marrow Masters brings us an incredible conversation with Kitrena Young, a two-time cancer survivor whose story spans decades and highlights the unique challenges faced by adolescents and young adults (AYAs). We begin by learning about Kitrena's initial diagnosis of B-cell ALL with a Philadelphia chromosome at the age of eight, followed by a shocking relapse 23 years later. Her candor about how she recognized the early signs the second time around—bruising and fatigue—underscores the importance of self-awareness and advocacy.We discuss how navigating the adult healthcare system differed drastically from her pediatric experience. Kitrena takes us through her rapid efforts to get an urgent appointment and the emotional toll of being thrust back into the cancer world. With support from her brother and eventually finding care at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC)  through a compassionate voice on the phone, she exemplifies what it means to be proactive in your care journey.Fertility preservation is another focal point. Kitrena recounts her decision to freeze 15 eggs before starting treatment and how her perspective on parenthood has evolved. She walks us through the emotional and physical realities of exploring surrogacy and genetic testing post-transplant—particularly the complex issue of donor DNA requiring a skin biopsy for viable results.Kitrena doesn't shy away from discussing post-treatment life: weight gain linked to early menopause, a challenging international trip filled with setbacks and triumphs, and the frustrations of altered tastes and capabilities. Despite it all, she maintains a remarkable sense of humor and determination to continue traveling and living fully.Family and caregiver dynamics are woven throughout her story. She speaks lovingly about her partner's unwavering support and the strength of her younger brother, who stepped up when needed most. Her message to caregivers includes practical advice—especially around vigilance with medical billing, noting errors she encountered from appointments she never attended.Finally, Kitrena emphasizes the growing importance of therapy for both patients and caregivers. She encourages the AYA community to use available resources to work through trauma, grief, and uncertainty—pointing to virtual options that didn't exist in her earlier experience.Kitrena's journey is one of persistence, clarity, and empowerment. She brings vital, firsthand wisdom to the AYA cancer space, reminding us that while every survivor's path is different, no one should walk it alone.Thanks to our Season 17 Sponsors:Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS): https://lls.org/and Incyte: https://incyte.com/FInancial Resource from the LINK: https://www.nbmtlink.org/financebookresources/ National Bone Marrow Transplant Link - (800) LINK-BMT, or (800) 546-5268.nbmtLINK Website: https://www.nbmtlink.org/nbmtLINK Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/nbmtLINKFollow the nbmtLINK on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/nbmtlink/The nbmtLINK YouTube Page can be found by clicking here.To participate in the GVHD Mosaic, click here: https://amp.livemosaics.com/gvhd

Instead, stay proactive by communicating with your care team about any arising symptoms.About our guest:Valerie David is an actor, playwright, writer and editor. Her greatest accomplishment in life is being a three-time cancer survivor.

In this special episode, Dr. Shaji Kumar from the Mayo Clinic speaks with Blood editor Dr. Laurie Sehn on a paper recently published in Blood, "Eliminating the Need for Sequential Confirmation of Response in Multiple Myeloma". The findings demonstrate eliminating the need for sequential confirmation of response in multiple myeloma. The study, involving 583 episodes of progression, found that simultaneous confirmation of disease progression using two different markers (e.g., serum protein electrophoresis and serum free light chain assay) was 98% accurate, compared to 82% for sequential confirmation. This suggests that simultaneous confirmation could improve clinical trial accuracy and reduce false censoring. The International Myeloma Working Group is set to revise its response criteria to incorporate these findings, potentially simplifying disease assessment and reducing the need for multiple blood draws.
