Transplant in adult Ph+ ALL, acalabrutinib and ventricular arrythmias, and antibody prevention of fetal/neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia
Description
In this week’s episode we discuss the role of allogeneic transplant in adult patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia. In a retrospective study, transplant provided no survival benefit in patients with rapid and deep responses to induction therapy that included BCR-ABL1 inhibitors. Up next, we discuss the evidence for an increased risk of ventricular arrythmias with use of acalabrutinib, which has emerged as a class effect of Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Lastly, we examine a novel, alloantigen-specific model to test the efficacy of a prophylactic treatment strategy for preventing fetal/neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia.
In this week's epside we'll learn about ADAMTS recovery after caplacizumab therapy in patients with immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. Then, we'll hear about preclinical characterization of sonrotoclax, a potential second-generation BCL2 inhibitor. Finally we'll hear about new insights...

In this week's episode, we’ll discuss the findings from a study assessing responses after treatment with tisagenlecleucel [LM1] in adults with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma, learn more about the association between high microRNA-145 plasma levels and decreased risk of future incident...
