SOHO State of the Art Updates and Next Questions |Treatment Approaches for Nodular Lymphocyte-Predominant Hodgkin Lymphoma
Nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL) is a rare variant of Hodgkin lymphoma characterized by a persistent risk of relapse but an excellent overall survival. Historically, it was treated similarly to classic Hodgkin lymphoma, but efforts have been made to deintensify treatment due to risk of late toxicity associated with intensive therapy. For patients with completely resected stage IA NLPHL, no further treatment may be considered, particularly for pediatric patients. For those with stage I-II NLPHL without risk factors such as B symptoms, sites>2, or variant pattern histology, lower intensity treatment wi...

FDA analysis of ineligibility for acute myeloid leukemia clinical trials by race and ethnicity
The objective of this study was to analyze the rates and reasons for trial ineligibility by race and ethnicity in trials of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) between 2016-2019. (Source: Clinical Lymphoma, Myeloma and Leukemia)

Real-World Patient Characteristics, Treatment Patterns, and Outcomes for Patients With Stage III or IV Classic Hodgkin Lymphoma Treated With Frontline ABVD: A Retrospective Database Review in the United States
: In newly diagnosed stage III/IV classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL), A+AVD (brentuximab vedotin, doxorubicin, vinblastine, dacarbazine) improved overall survival (OS) versus ABVD (doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, dacarbazine). As clinical trial and real-world populations may differ, real-world treatment characteristics and OS (rwOS) were assessed for patients with stage III/IV cHL treated with frontline ABVD.

Ixazomib Versus Placebo as Postinduction Maintenance Therapy in Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma Patients: An Analysis by Age and Frailty Status of the TOURMALINE-MM4 Study
This TOURMALINE-MM4 secondary analysis was performed to determine if the progression-free survival (PFS) benefit observed in newly-diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) patients with maintenance ixazomib versus placebo was driven by a particular subgroup of patients. PFS benefit with ixazomib versus placebo was seen across all age and frailty status subgroups. Ixazomib prolonged PFS across the heterogeneous population of NDMM patients.

Clinical analysis of pediatric T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia using the MRD-oriented strategy system
Pediatric T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) has historically been associated with a poor prognosis. However, prognostic indicators and methods of treatment used for T-ALL remain controversial. (Source: Clinical Lymphoma, Myeloma and Leukemia)

Ixazomib Versus Placebo as Post-Induction Maintenance Therapy in Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma Patients: An Analysis by Age and Frailty Status of the TOURMALINE-MM4 Study
Multiple myeloma (MM) is typically a disease of the elderly, with a median age of 69 years at diagnosis and more than 30% of patients aged ≥ 75 years.1,2 Despite substantial advances in treatment over the past decade,3 elderly patients with MM typically have reduced survival and impaired quality of life (QoL) compared to younger patients, often as a consequence of comorbidities, increased toxicity, and early treatment discontinuation .2,4 Consequently, there remains a substantial unmet need in this patient population for more feasible and tolerable therapies allowing for prolonged treatment.

A Phase II, Open-Label Study of an Accelerated Infusion Rate of Daratumumab in Patients with Relapsed and Refractory Multiple Myeloma
Daratumumab is an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody initially approved as a single agent for the treatment of relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma. The infusion-related reactions (IRRs) commonly seen with intravenous daratumumab have been managed by prolonging the first infusion, temporarily stopping/slowing the rate if reactions occur and using adequate pre- and post-infusion medications. Several retrospective studies have evaluated shorter infusions after ≥2 prior doses administered at the standard rates. (Source: Clinical Lymphoma, Myeloma and Leukemia)

Management of chronic myeloid leukemia patients in later lines: the role of ponatinib and new compounds
Limited therapeutic options and poor response probability still represent some unresolved issue in later lines chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients. In addition, sequential treatment is associated with reduced overall survival and may select new mutation, including the T315I, further reducing the therapeutic chances: outside the United States, ponatinib and allogenic stem cell transplant are the only available options. In the last decade, ponatinib improved outcomes in third-line patients, although limited by the risk of severe adverse occlusive events. (Source: Clinical Lymphoma, Myeloma and Leukemia)

SOHO State-of-the-Art Updates and Next Questions: A Modern Approach to the Systemic Treatment of Advanced CTCL
The term cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) is a general term for T-cell lymphomas that are found primarily in skin. The most common CTCL entities, mycosis fungoides and Sezary syndrome are incurable diseases with a plethora of conventional treatment options. In the past treatment options have been selected primarily according to stage. Given newer targeted therapies with varied response in different body compartments, we suggest a compartment-guided algorithm that may enhance response rates directing the selection of the most efficacious treatment options.
