After assessing the severity of anemia in patients with myelofibrosis, it’s important to work with them to select the best intervention. Having a personalized approach to treatment and management could have a beneficial impact on the overall quality of life of your patient. Tune in with Dr. Charles Turck for insights and experiences from real-life patient cases with Dr. Justin Arnal, Clinical Coordinator of Hematology at Atrium Health Specialty Pharmacy Service in Charlotte, North Carolina, and Dr. Jerry Spivak, Emeritus Professor of Medicine at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.

Due to a high prevalence of anemia in myelofibrosis, significant challenges could occur when diagnosing patients. But making a timely and accurate diagnosis is key, along with ensuring we’re using the best therapeutic strategies. Learn more with Dr. Jennifer Caudle as she speaks with Dr. Douglas Tremblay, Assistant Professor of Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.

Normally, when a patient is newly diagnosed with myelofibrosis, the anemia is from the disease. And it’s important to treat these patients with an individualized treatment plan as this could have a significant positive impact on their quality of life and outcome. To learn more, dive in with Dr. Charles Turck as he speaks with Dr. Prithvi Bose, Professor in the Department of Leukemia at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.

Host: Jennifer Caudle, DO
Guest: Jason Tremblay
Myelofibrosis is a heterogeneous disease and different hematologic manifestations, like anemia and thrombocytopenia, are variable based on the patients themselves. It might even be rare to see patients who experience myelofibrosis the same. So to take a deep dive into the treatment paradigm of this disease is Dr. Jennifer Caudle who will be speaking with Dr. Douglas Tremblay, Assistant Professor of Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.

Guest: Matthew Lunning, DO, FACP
It’s not uncommon for patients with B-cell lymphoma to have relapsed or refractory disease, making it essential to know how to approach their second-line treatment. Unfortunately, many challenges and unmet needs exist in this setting, which is why Dr. Matthew Lunning is here to discuss those challenges as well as the novel therapies that are helping us overcome them. Dr. Lunning is an Associate Professor in the Division of Hematology and Oncology at the University of Nebraska Medical Center.

Due to its strong response rates and manageable adverse events, CAR T-cell therapy is now considered the standard-of-care treatment for B-cell lymphomas in the second-line setting, which could lead to better outcomes for patients. Learn more about the efficacy and safety profile of CAR T-cell therapy with Dr. Jennifer Caudle and Dr. Sarah Rutherford, Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Division of Hematology-Oncology at Weill Cornell Medicine.

Guest: Tara Graff, DO, MS
The therapeutic landscape for relapsed or refractory B-cell lymphoma has greatly evolved in the past several years, with CAR T-cell therapy and personalized care becoming increasingly important in the second-line setting. Joining Dr. Charles Turck to discuss how CAR T-cell therapy and patient-centered care can help optimize outcomes in the second-line treatment of patients with B-cell lymphoma is medical oncologist Dr. Tara Graff.

Lutetium-177and radium-223 have both been shown to significantly improve survival in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, but how do these treatment options compare? Find out with Dr. Alan Bryce, who presented a session on this exact topic at the 2024 ASCO Genitourinary Cancers Symposium.

TALAPRO-2 was a recent phase 3 study conducted in the first-line metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) setting. Patients were randomized to receive either enzalutamide plus talazoparib or enzalutamide plus placebo, and the researchers found that there was a 37 percent reduction in risk of progression or death among those who received enzalutamide plus talazoparib. Dive further into the findings and their implications for patients with mCRPC with Dr. Charles Turck and Dr. Neeraj Agarwal, Professor of Medicine at the Huntsman Cancer Institute at the University of Utah.

Host: Rishi Sekar, MD
A recent study sought to investigate why there are disparities in mortality as well as access and participation in clinical trials among vulnerable prostate cancer populations. According to the findings, counties in the United States that had the highest prostate cancer mortality were less likely to have any clinical trials in the area. Dive further into the results with Dr. Rishi Sekar, who presented the “Disparities in Prostate Cancer Mortality and Clinical Trial Availability Across Vulnerable Populations” session at the 2024 ASCO Genitourinary Cancers Symposium.

According to research featured at the 2023 ASCO Annual Meeting, novel immune checkpoint targets have the potential to inform drug development and combination strategies to optimize the care of patients with non-small cell lung cancer. Tune in to hear Dr. Jacob Sands explore the key findings with Dr. Aakash Desai, an Assistant Professor of Medicine at the O’Neal Cancer Center at the University of Alabama at Birmingham.

Host: Zachery Reichert MD, PhD
If hormonal therapies are not working for prostate cancer patients, chemotherapy may be a reliable alternative based on findings from a recent study. In fact, out of the 70 percent of patients who had pain when entering the study, 45 percent had their pain improved with chemotherapy. Dive more into the findings with Dr. Zachery Reichert, who presented the “Sequencing Hormonal Therapies After Treatment Intensification” session at the 2024 ASCO Genitourinary Cancers Symposium.

Recent estimates show that only 14 percent of cancers are detected through routine screening, meaning the majority of patients are diagnosed after the onset of clinical symptoms. But multi-cancer early detection (MCED) tests offer the opportunity to potentially expand our ability to detect cancer through a single blood draw. Explore how MCED tests might help bridge the gaps that exist in today’s cancer screening paradigm and the recent studies on these tests with Drs. Tom Beer and Betsy O’Donnell. Dr. Beer is the Chief Medical Officer for Multi-Cancer Early Detection at Exact Sciences Corporation, and Dr. O’Donnell is the Director of Early Detection and Prevention of Malignant Conditions at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

Guest: Jessica E. Hawley M.D. M.S.
For patients who start out with hormone sensitive prostate cancer, there's a period of time where the prostate cancer cells are responsive to suppressing testosterone production. So there’s a nice disease response early in that time period after diagnosis and when initial treatment has begun, but how long is each patient going to respond to that initial treatment, and what role does the multidisciplinary team have? Dive in with Dr. Jessica Hawley, Medical Oncologist at Fred Hutch Cancer Center and an Assistant Professor in the Division of Hematology and Oncology at the University of Washington School of Medicine.
