At the 2021 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting, CancerNetwork® spoke with Julie Vose, MD, MBA, a professor of internal medicine in the Division of Oncology and Hematology at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, about how patients have numerous novel treatment options. She highlighted how these new options can work alone or potentially as part of a combination regimen in future treatment strategies. 

Transcript:

The interesting aspects are looking at not only new drugs, new monoclonal antibodies, new CAR T-cells, [or] new bispecific antibodies. Looking at all these different modalities that can be utilized for all different types of hematologic malignancies, either alone or potentially in the future, combined together [is interesting]. We are going to have so many potential treatments that we will be able to [utilize to] help more patients and be able to get these new novel therapies to many more people.
