In this week's episode we'll learn about the role of autologous transplant for relapsed myeloma. In an updated analysis of the GMMG ReLApsE trial, salvage autologous transplant offered no survival benefit compared to control chemotherapy. These findings may have clinical implications in an era of alternative, and highly effective, treatment options. After that: Response to DDAVP, or desmopressin, in bleeding disorders. This study is the first large scale meta-analysis to assess the response rate to DDAVP in bleeding disorders. Authors provide new insights into determinants of response, which vary according to the disease type. Finally, turning to diffuse large B cell lymphoma. Germinal center B cells depend on the activity of DOT1 and EZH2 to maintain their pro-proliferative identity. New research shows that combined treatment with DOT1L and EZH2 inhibitors has synergistic activity in vitro.Featured Articles:Salvage autologous transplant in relapsed multiple myeloma: long-term follow-up of the phase 3 GMMG ReLApsE trialDDAVP response and its determinants in bleeding disorders: a systematic review and meta-analysisTargeting DOT1L and EZH2 synergizes in breaking the germinal center identity of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma

In this week's episode we'll learn about the role of interleukin-1 signaling in the bone marrow microenvironment in the development of myelodysplastic syndromes, the immune checkpoint regulator VISTA as a potential target for preventing graft-vs-host disease, and epcoritamab plus gemcitabine and oxaliplatin in transplant-ineligible relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.Featured Articles:IL-1R1 and IL-18 signals regulate mesenchymal stromal cells in an aged murine model of myelodysplastic syndromesTargeting cell-surface VISTA expression on allospecific naïve T cells promotes toleranceEpcoritamab plus GemOx in transplant-ineligible relapsed/refractory DLBCL: results from the EPCORE NHL-2 trial

If you've relapsed recently or had a drink after a solid streak of sobriety, I want you to take a deep breath and hear this: ✨ You are not broken.✨ You have not failed.✨ And you are absolutely not alone. Whether it's a one-time slip or a full-on spiral, relapse doesn't mean you've failed. It's feedback. And it's fixable. If you're feeling stuck in guilt, shame, or that voice in your head telling you, “You blew it,” this episode is your safe space to breathe, regroup, and move forward.

I Relapsed for a Woman: Lust, Cocaine, and the Lie of ControlA raw confession: what led to the slip, what it revealed about ego, love, and addiction — and how you claw your way back with style and power.→ The allure of chaos. The myth of control. The addict's ego dressed in desire.If you're done with fluff and ready to hear something real — you're in the right place.

In today's episode, we'll discuss time-limited triplet therapy in relapsed or refractory CLL. Zanubrutinib, venetoclax and obinutuzumab induced deep remissions, and was well tolerated, even in very high-risk patients, and those with prior exposure to targeted therapies. After that: researchers chronicle the development of a patient-reported outcome measure for sclerosis associated with chronic GVHD—graft-versus-host disease. The new symptom scale—currently undergoing validation studies—may provide valuable information regarding severity, functional impact, and response to therapy. Finally, a study of changes in population dynamic rates that underlie inflammation-associated myeloid bias. The work demonstrates the use of mathematical models to deliver critical biological insights and uncover underlying mechanisms.Featured Articles:MRD-guided zanubrutinib, venetoclax, and obinutuzumab in relapsed CLL: primary end point analysis from the CLL2-BZAG trialDevelopment of the Lee Symptom Scale–Skin Sclerosis for chronic GVHD–associated sclerosisPopulation dynamics modeling reveals that myeloid bias involves both HSC differentiation and progenitor proliferation biases

After Jola Tapper's son Peter was diagnosed when he was 5 years old with Stage 4 Neuroblastoma in October of 2011, he went through a difficult treatment protocol which took him to having No Evidence of Disease on April 12th of 2012. For the next 7 1/2 years, even though he had difficulties, Peter was able to lead as normal and good of a life as possible. Then came December of 2019 and he relapsed by being diagnosed with Synovial Sarcoma. Peter was able to survive for the next 25 months, until his ultimate passing on January 17th of 2022, just 25 days before his 16th birthday.

Carley Rutledge went through much of 2010 in pain but not getting any correct answers about the cause of this pain for most of that year, until she received the shocking diagnosis of Ewings Sarcoma. Carley went through 2 years of difficult treatment and then was given an immunotherapy drug that worked and she experienced 8 years of being cancer free from this form of Pediatric Bone Cancer. Always active and with many accomplishments, Carley then felt back pain during her run in a Half Marathon which unfortunately indicated her Ewings Sarcoma had relapsed, and this led to her passing in November of 2021 at the age of 27. Carley's mother Laura will talk about her beloved daughter and about her family's Rutledge Cancer Foundation on today's podcast.

In today's episode, supported by Citius Pharmaceuticals, we had the pleasure of speaking with Francine Foss, MD, to discuss the FDA approval of denileukin diftitox-cxdl (Lymphir) for the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) who have received 1 or more prior systemic therapies. Dr Foss is a professor of medicine (hematology) and dermatology and the director of the Multidisciplinary T Cell Lymphoma Program at the Yale School of Medicine, as well as the scientific leader of Lymphoma CRT at Yale Cancer Center in New Haven, Connecticut.  On August 8, 2024, the FDA approved denileukin diftitox for the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory CTCL who have received at least 1 prior systemic therapy. This regulatory decision was supported by findings from the phase 3 Study 302 (NCT01871727), in which patients who received the agent (n = 69) achieved an objective response rate of 36.2% (95% CI, 25.0%-48.7%) per independent review committee assessment, including a complete response rate of 8.7%. In our exclusive interview, Dr Foss discussed the significance of this approval, key efficacy and safety data from Study 302, and her excitement about reintroducing an agent to the CTCL treatment paradigm that can induce particularly robust responses.

After 2 year old Max Gagnon was diagnosed with B Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in 2014 and went into remission , the hope and expectation for his dad Michael and mother Amber was that the worst was behind them. Max however, relapsed in 2022 and just completed his treatment in August of this year. Michael will talk about the past 10 years which hopefully will now lead to a path of good health for Max.

Staying abreast of recent clinical practice guidelines for the management of relapsed/refractory mantle cell lymphoma can be challenging for providers who may seldom encounter it in community practice. In this episode, CANCER BUZZ speaks with Jeff Sharman, MD, medical director of hematology research, US Oncology, and director of research, Willamette Valley Cancer Institute, about the role of biomarker testing in guiding treatment decisions and how evidence-based management of treatment-related adverse events can serve this patient population. “Fortunately, treatments such as BTK inhibitors are generally very well tolerated by patients, and there are very few patients who can't take a BTK inhibitor. But as you go up the scale of increasing intensity, such as CAR T-cell, or even allogeneic stem cell transplantation, those are therapies not suitable for patients with more extensive comorbidities.” – Dr. Jeff Sharman, MD   “A collaborative relationship between a community practice and an academic center can be of considerable benefit to a patient, so that as treatment decisions are made, both the physician and patient can feel like they're offering the patient the very best therapy.” – Dr. Jeff Sharman, MD    Jeff Sharman, MD  Medical Director of Hematology Research, US Oncology Director of Research Willamette Valley Cancer Institute Eugene, Oregon    This project is made possible by funding and support provided by Eli Lilly and in collaboration with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

Dr. Chris Heery is Chief Medical Officer at Arcellx, a company focusing on developing anito-cel, a significant advancement in CAR-T cell therapy, to treat relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (rrMM). Multiple myeloma is a rare type of blood cancer that affects plasma cells in the bone marrow and has few treatment options. Arcellx is showing promising data from clinical trials with patients with rrMM who have failed prior therapies and have received Fast Track, Orphan Drug, and Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy Designations from the FDA for anito-cel. Chris explains, "The company was founded based on an idea that you could take a novel protein structure and modify it to be able to bind to targets on the surface of cancer cells. And over many years of work, the founders were able to demonstrate that that was possible. Over the last three or four years, Arcellx has focused more on taking what were some of those early ideas and turning them into a product that can help patients. For these last three or four years, most of our focus has been around the lead asset that we call anito-cel that treats multiple myeloma and trying to get that product through the approval process to be able to be a commercial product that can be used for patients both in the United States and the rest of the world." "When a patient is diagnosed with multiple myeloma, in general, most patients are older. The median age of diagnosis of multiple myeloma is around 70 years old, and those plasma cells can cause damage to the normal bone marrow by crowding out the normal bone marrow."  "They can also make a lot of the protein that a normal plasma cell would make. By making a lot of that protein, those proteins can cause deposition and damage into other tissues. So, patients can arrive at the clinic with a variety of different symptoms that have to do with either decreased bone marrow activity, decreased number of normal cell populations in their blood, or damage to things like their kidneys or other end organs that you need for normal human function." #Arcellx #CellTherapy #CARTTherapy #RRMM #MultipleMyeloma #BloodCancer #Cancer #RareDisease arcellx.com Download the transcript here

The range of frontline therapy options for mantle cell lymphoma can influence subsequent treatment choices for patients with relapsed or refractory disease. Providers must determine initial treatment based on individual patient characteristics, while also factoring in future treatment options. In this episode, CANCER BUZZ speaks with Nirav Shah, MD, MSHP, associate professor of medicine at Medical College of Wisconsin and Kirollos Hanna, PharmD, BCOP, PCOP, FACCC, assistant professor of pharmacy at Mayo Clinic and director of pharmacy at Minnesota Oncology, about shared decision making in the management of relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma.  “The key to all of this is good collaboration between the community and their affiliates… their partners and academics, or tertiary referral centers, to really engage… these patients in a collaborative format… it really takes a team, a village, to take care of complex mantle cell lymphoma patients. “ –Dr. Nirav Shah, MD, MSHP   “We're not really seeing a lot of CAR T-cell therapy move in the frontline setting just yet, while there are a lot of ongoing clinical trials… Really, right now, it's going to be the patient characteristic: how well they did on frontline therapy, access to care, affordability, institutional preparedness… that would potentially… allow your patient to receive CAR T-cell therapy.” –Kirollos Hanna, PharmD, BCPS, PCOP, FACCC Nirav Shah, MD, MSHP  Associate Professor of Medicine  Medical College of Wisconsin  Division of Hematology and Oncology  Milwaukee, Wisconsin    Kirollos Hanna, PharmD, BCPS, PCOP, FACCC  Assistant Professor of Pharmacy, Mayo Clinic  Director of Pharmacy  Minnesota Oncology   St. Paul, Minnesota    This project is made possible by funding and support provided by Eli Lilly and in collaboration with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

Welcome to OncLive On Air®! I'm your host today, Ashling Wahner.  OncLive On Air  is a podcast from OncLive®, which provides oncology professionals with the resources and information they need to provide the best patient care. In both digital and print formats, OncLive covers every angle of oncology practice, from new technology to treatment advances to important regulatory decisions.  In today's episode, supported by AbbVie, we had the pleasure of speaking with Jennifer Crombie, MD, about the FDA approval of epcoritamab-bysp (Epkinly) for patients with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma. Dr Crombie is a physician at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and an assistant professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School in Boston, Massachusetts. On June 26, 2024, the FDA granted accelerated approval to epcoritamab for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma who have received at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy. This regulatory decision was supported by findings form the phase 1/2 EPCORE NHL-1 trial (NCT03625037), in which the agent yielded an overall response rate of 82% (95% CI, 74.1%-88.2%) in the primary efficacy cohort (n = 127), including a complete response rate of 60% (95% CI, 50.8%-68.4%).  In our exclusive interview, Dr Crombie discussed the significance of this approval, key findings from the pivotal EPCORE NHL-1 trial, and where the future of the FL treatment paradigm is headed.  ___ That's all we have for today!
