Many thanks to the University of Colorado Cancer Center for interviewing us about our recent multicenter study published in Blood Advances about checkpoint inhibitor efficacy in the post-CAR-T relapse setting.

Review of first-line treatments for advanced anaplastic lymphoma kinase mutated, non-small cell cancer

PS I'm available (for a fee) to draft plain language summaries. This is not how I'd explain the results to grandma.

in a 52-patient study, emotional well-being continues to be an unmet need during active surveillance of patients with indolent NHL (compared to norm general population scores)

Three of those four patients achieved a complete response with out-of-commercial specification (OOS) CAR T therapy

Risk factors for OOS were ≥ 4 prior therapies or previous bendamustine exposure.

PFS is a surrogate for OS in DLBCL, one of the few actual validated surrogate endpoints: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/299756

RT @graham74GC@twitter.com

Pola-R-CHP has been approved by NICE for front line treatment of DLBCL in IPI 2-5. This means hospitals in England are legally obliged to offer it so this will become a new standard. More thoughts in thread.

Deeply honored that our @ASH_hematology@twitter.com abstract on outcomes of checkpoint inhibitors after post-CAR-T relapse will be featured in Highlights of ASH. Many thanks to all our collaborators. Manuscript is on the way! ✍🏽✍🏽

Excellent thread about BITEs in & by Dr. @mihematology@twitter.com. Will be very interesting to see how these settle in sequence with CAR.

RT @mihematology@twitter.com

I put together a talk on bispecific T cell engagers in lymphoma and myeloma for @UMNHOT@twitter.com grand rounds last week

Here’s a quick overview of the four phase 2 BiTE trials published in 2022 including:

• Glofitamab
• Epcoritamab
• Mosunetuzumab
• Teclistamab

Large retrospective cohort of rare : 41 pts with B-PLL. 40% asx at dx; these pts with superior OS & less high risk features. TP53mut = worse survival. Better PFS (not OS) in TP53mut (F below) with BTKi compared to CIT, with mPFS still only 2 yrs. haematologica.org/article/view

Update: interim PET after 3 cycles of DA-R-EPOCH with CMR! LVEF preserved, no arrhythmias (I left out the initial detail that presentation was after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest), no perforation (held ritux for C1).

RT @majorajay@twitter.com

Another lymphoma poll! How do you manage fit primary cardiac DLBCL with classic presentation with RV wall mass and arrhythmias?

Tough case for : 60-something with bulky double hit lymphoma with extensive extranodal dx. Strong suspicion for leptomeningeal involvement given invasion into spinal canal. EPOCH planned. If CSF+, how would you treat CNS involvement?

Can't see how this is useful. Can someone explain? The need is for tests predictive of efficacy before treatment.

=> Deauville score and quantitative PET scan parameters as a predictive tool of anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell efficacy

Cracked open my mother's clinical oncology book from 1978 (just 327 pages!). Check out the chapter on "The Malignant Lymphomas, Multiple Myeloma, and Macroglobulinemia" and all these regimens! Totally fascinating.
