Given the wealth of available options, the selection of tyrosine kinase inhibitors for patients with chronic myeloid leukemia is faced with a plethora of nuanced decisions.
Choosing the most effective TKIs for individual patients with chronic myeloid leukemia requires decision making based on efficacy data, agent safety profiles, and patient characteristics, according to Michael Deininger, MD.
Patient preferences should be considered when selecting the optimal treatment regimen for patients with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma, as both CD19-directed CAR T-cell therapies and CD20-targeted bispecific antibodies can be efficacious in this population, according to a presentation by Caron A. Jacobson, MD, MMSc, at the 2023 SOHO Annual Meeting.
Minimal residual disease negativity sustained for 6 months or longer with ciltacabtagene autoleucel prolonged duration of response and progression-free survival compared with minimal residual disease negativity sustained for less than 6 months in patients with heavily pretreated relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.
Current research suggests that circulating tumor DNA may have prognostic value when conducted at the conclusion of treatment in large B-cell lymphoma, indicating that minimal residual disease detection using ctDNA assessments such as PhaseEd-Seq could address imitations associated with the use of computed tomography or positron emission tomography/CT scans at this stage.
