In a nutshell This study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of asciminib (Scemblix) in real-world patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) previously treated with ponatinib (Iclusig). The data showed that asciminib treatment had promising effectiveness in these patients. Some background CML is a type of cancer that starts in blood-forming...

Can BCT-100 be safely combined with low-dose cytarabine for older patients with acute myeloid leukemia that cannot receive intensive therapy?

Posted by Medivizor on Apr 15, 2023 in Leukemia | 0 comments

In a nutshell This study compared the effectiveness and safety of low-dose (LD) cytarabine (Ara-C; Cytosar-U) with recombinant arginase BCT-100 (BCT-100) to Ara-C alone in older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that were unsuitable for intensive therapy. The data showed that LD Ara-C (LDAC) combined with BCT-100 resulted in similar...

How does inotuzumab ozogamicin influence time to first subsequent salvage therapy in patients with relapsed or refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia?

In a nutshell This study analyzed the effect of inotuzumab ozogamicin (InO; Besponsa) treatment on time to subsequent salvage therapy (TST) in patients with relapsed or refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R ALL). The data showed that TST was longer with InO compared to standard of care (SoC) treatment. Some background Salvage...

Evaluating the effectiveness and safety of busulfan plus cyclophosphamide versus total body irradiation plus cyclophosphamide for patients with adult B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Posted by Medivizor on Mar 26, 2023 in Leukemia | 0 comments

In a nutshell This study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of busulfan (Bu; Busulfex) plus cyclophosphamide (Cy; Cytoxan) (BuCy) regimen versus total body irradiation (TBI) plus cyclophosphamide (TBI-Cy) regimen for patients with adult B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) in first complete remission undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic...

Evaluating the safety and effectiveness of ibrutinib lead-in treatment before venetoclax initiation in reducing tumor size in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Posted by Medivizor on Mar 16, 2023 in Leukemia | 0 comments

In a nutshell This study investigated the safety and effectiveness of ibrutinib (Imbruvica) lead-in treatment before venetoclax (Venclexta) initiation for reducing tumor size in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The data showed that three cycles of ibrutinib lead-in treatment before venetoclax initiation significantly reduced the tumor...

Evaluating the effectiveness and safety of gilteritinib plus azacitidine versus azacitidine alone for patients with newly diagnosed FLT3-mutated acute myeloid leukemia.

Posted by Medivizor on Feb 28, 2023 in Leukemia | 0 comments

In a nutshell This study investigated the effectiveness and safety of gilteritinib (Xospata) plus azacitidine (Vidaza) versus azacitidine alone for patients with newly diagnosed FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3)-mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are unfit for intensive chemotherapy. The data showed that gilteritinib plus azacitidine...

Evaluating the benefits of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in childhood acute myeloid leukemia.

Posted by Medivizor on Feb 5, 2023 in Leukemia | 0 comments

In a nutshell This study analyzed the use of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) therapy following first remission in children with newly diagnosed, high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML) compared to chemotherapy. This study supports the use of alloHSCT for children with AML that are at greater. Some background Childhood AML...
