Ziftomenib elicited positive responses in patients with NPM1-mutant acute myeloid leukemia, meeting the primary end point of the phase 2 KOMET-001 trial.

Interim phase 3 results revealed a median survival of at least 13.5 months with galinpepimut-S vs 6 months with standard of care in acute myeloid leukemia.

At a median follow-up of 61.2 months, zanabrutinib demonstrated superior PFS vs bendamustine and rituximab in patients with CLL and SLL.

Uproleselan plus chemotherapy did not demonstrate clinical benefit over chemotherapy alone, though did show an acceptable safety profile.

Researchers at Stanford University have conducted a phase 1 clinical trial evaluating the combination of a bispecific CAR T-cell therapy targeting CD19 and CD22 with NKTR-255.

In the phase 1b/2 FELIX study, obecabtagene autoleucel was associated with low incidence of grade 3 or higher immune-related toxicity.

Median duration on bezuclastinib was 56 weeks vs 40 weeks for placebo in non-advanced systemic mastocytosis, the phase 2 Summit trial reported.

From 2013 to 2022, the rate of important identified risks associated with ponatinib in the treatment of those with ALL or CML had decreased.

Data shown at ASH 2024 demonstrated higher OS rates with anti-CD20 antibodies in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma.

For patients with HMA–naive chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, an IO-202 combo demonstrated durable responses, a phase 1b study found.

Pirtobrutinib sustained BTK inhibition and improved progression-free survival in patients with CLL and SLL, data from the phase 3 BRUIN CLL-321 trial showed.

Regardless of high-risk features, brexucabtagene autoleucel demonstrated positive and durable responses in BTK-naive MCL.

Phase 2 results showed high undetectable MRD rates with pirtobrutinib, venetoclax, and obinutuzumab for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Findings from the phase 1/2 CaDAnCe-101 trial showed that promising ORRs in R/R WM and R/R CLL/SLL stemmed from BGB-16673 treatment.

Phase 3 data show meaningful benefits with uproleselan in patients with primary refractory AML and post-transplant survival.

Zanubrutinib maintained a PFS benefit at 5 years vs benadmustine and rituximab for patients with CLL/SLL.

The venetoclax regimen improved CR/CRi rates for patients with acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes.

For patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and mantle cell leukemia, lymphodepletion then brexu-cel show positive efficacy and safety outcomes.

Acalabrutinib-based treatment also improves overall survival vs standard chemoimmunotherapy in the phase 3 AMPLIFY trial.

Data from the phase 3 ASC4FIRST trial support asciminib as a standard of care in newly diagnosed chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase.

Patients aged 60 to 69 years old had comparable efficacy when treated with brexu-cel for relapsed/refractory B-cell ALL.

Olverembatinib appears effective in patients with CP-CML without T315I mutations following prior first-line tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy.

Addressing socioeconomic barriers may help ensure that all patients with AML can benefit from potentially curative therapies.

Responses with epcoritamab were comparable across the expansion and optimization cohorts in the EPCORE CLL-1 trial.

Findings from the SAVE study showed that an all-oral revumenib-based combination may improve responses in patients with acute myeloid leukemia with certain genetic alterations.

For patients with relapsed or refractory KMT2Ar acute leukemia, revumenib showed promising outcomes of overall response rate and duration of response.

Blinatumomab plus chemotherapy may represent a new treatment standard for most patients with standard-risk B-ALL, says Rachel E. Rau, MD.

Bicistronic CD19/CD22 CAR T-cell therapy had improved safety, durability, and high remission rates in pediatric patients with R/R B-ALL.

The updated labeling also includes new information on the recommended dosage of fludarabine phosphate when given with cyclophosphamide and rituximab.
